USING GEOLOCATOR TRACKING DATA AND RINGING ARCHIVES TO VALIDATE CITIZEN-SCIENCE BASED SEASONAL PREDICTIONS OF BIRD DISTRIBUTION IN A DATA-POOR REGION

Using geolocator tracking data and ringing archives to validate citizen-science based seasonal predictions of bird distribution in a data-poor region

Unstructured citizen-science data are increasingly used for analysing the abundance and distribution of species.Here we test the usefulness of such data to predict the seasonal distribution of migratory songbirds, and to analyse patterns of migratory connectivity.We used bird occurrence data from eBird, one of the largest global citizen science dat

Seismic performance of building reinforced with CFRP bars

Over the past two decades, laboratory tests have suggested that festool fs-wa/90 fibre reinforced polymer (FRP) bars can replace steel bars as internal reinforcement in concrete structures, especially those are subjected to aggressive environments.FRP bars has potential for replacing steel bars as these material are corrosion-resistant and have hig
