Squirrels are arboreal acrobats that spread tree-generating seeds, mushrooms and fungi spores and serve as food for predators. As important as squirrels are to ecosystems, their exact habitat needs and ranges are not widely known. In a recent study published in Scientific Reports, a team of University of Alaska Fairbanks researchers used novel artificial intelligence and […]
“The IDF bombed them in homes without hesitation, as a first option,” an Israeli intelligence officer said. “It’s much easier to bomb a family’s home.

Rapid and reliable age estimation is crucial for effectively and efficiently managing fish stocks. Scientists successfully used a novel technology, Fourier transform near infrared spectroscopy (FT-NIR)and artificial intelligence (AI), in combination, to more quickly produce reliable estimates of fish age. Otoliths are small calcified structures in the inner ear of a fish, also known as ear stones. […]
