It's a special day when the newspaper you grew up with translates your latest research into a beautiful interactive. “Trekvogels moeten steeds vaker laveren tussen de maaiwieken van windturbines” in @nrc nrc.nl/nieuws/2024/10/10/tre… @IBED_UvA @UvA_Amsterdam

Had a great time presenting our latest paper on hybrid modeling of broad-front bird migration at the @AI_for_Science workshop at #ICML24 We can now make detailed and interpretable forecasts of departure, flight, and landing at the continental scale! 📰➡️ openreview.net/pdf?id=oAmxqO…

Need to analyze animal tracking data in R? Just out, our (@AnneKScharf & @safilabmpi ) paper in @MethodsEcolEvol describing the R package move2 (bartk.gitlab.io/move2/) for analyzing movement data, including reading data directly from @MovebankTeam. doi.org/10.1111/2041-210X.14…

📢Nieuw rapport & open dataset: Vogeltrek in kaart gebracht met weer- & vogelradars📡🐦‍⬛🐦 In opdracht van @AmsterdamNL, @GemDiemen en @ProvincieNH hebben we @IBED_UvA @UvA_Amsterdam vogeltrek in Noord-Holland onderzocht, om te kunnen helpen bij vraagstukken rondom windenergie.

Delving into the applied side of our #NorthSea nocturnal #bird migration forecasts, I write about the model development and on-demand #offshore #wind turbine curtailment protocol in my latest blog post for The Applied Ecologist. #BirdMigration #Conservation

In our latest paper, @bart_kra, Willem Bouten, @BaranesJudy, & I describe the forecast model used for the "international first" curtailment of #OffshoreWind turbines and advocate for dynamic #aeroconservation. 🌍 Read more: doi.org/10.1111/1365-2664.14…

Forecasting nocturnal bird migration for dynamic aeroconservation: The value of short‐term datasets

Near-term forecasts of migration fluxes evaluated against measurements can be used to define curtailment thresholds for offshore wind energy. We show that to minimize collision risk for 50% of...

1/3 It's #WorldMigratoryBirdDay! Did you know that #radar is a great tool to study bird migration & many birds migrate @ night? On 22-23 April @IBED_UvA we observed mass migration on weather & bird radars in NL @globam_net @NWONieuws @BiodiversaPlus @KNMI @EuropaBon_H2020

Congratulations @LippertFiona ! Really exciting the paper is now out!
Fiona Lippert@LippertFiona27 Oct 2022
Excited to announce that our paper "Learning to predict spatiotemporal movement dynamics from weather radar networks" is available @MethodsEcolEvol! We use #DeepLearning to generate comprehensive bird migration forecasts. #AI4science #radar #aeroecology doi.org/10.1111/2041-210X.14…
