Abstract:
The flight behaviour of barn swallows (Hirundo rustica) and house martins (Delichon urbica) was tested in a wind tunnel at 15 combinations of flight angles and speeds. In contrast to that of most other small passerines, the intermittent flight of hirundines rarely consists of regular patterns of flapping and rest phases. To vary mechanical power output, both species used intermittent flight, controlling the number of single, pulse-like wingbeats per unit time. House martins in descent tended to concentrate their wingbeats into bursts and performed true gliding flight during rest phases. Barn s

Abstract:
Synopsis Animal flight noise can serve as an inspiration to engineering solutions to wind-noise problems in planes or wind turbines. Here we investigate the acoustics of wingbeats in birds and bats by co-registering wing-movement in natural flight with acoustic noise. To understand the relationships between wing movement and acoustics, we conducted additional acoustic measurements of single moving wings and other moving surfaces with accurately tracked motion paths. We found a correlation between wing-surface area and the sound pressure level of wingbeats; with bats tending to produce lower le

Abstract:
Aerial habitats present a challenge to find food across a large potential search volume, particularly for insectivorous bats that rely on echolocation calls with limited detection range and may forage at heights over 1000 m. To understand how bats use vertical space, we tracked one to five foraging flights of eight common noctules ( Nyctalus noctula ). Bats were tracked for their full foraging session (87.27 ± 24 min) using high-resolution atmospheric pressure radio transmitters that allowed us to calculate height and wingbeat frequency. Bats used diverse flight strategies, but generally flew

Abstract:
Wingbeat frequencies were observed in the field for 32 morphologically diverse bird species, representing 18 families, and ranging in mass from 20 g to nearly 5 kg. A combination of multiple regression and dimensional analysis was used to show that wingbeat frequency (f) may be estimated by: f = 1.08(m1/3g1/2b−1S−1/4p−1/3 where m is the bird's body mass, g is the acceleration due to gravity, b is the wing span, S is the wing area and p is the air density. The predicted wingbeat frequency can be used to estimate the power available from a bird's flight muscles, and an estimate of the power requ

Temperature variation affects most biological parameters from the molecular level to community structure and dynamics. Current studies on thermal biology assess how populations vary in response to environmental temperature, which can help determine how populations differentially respond to climate change. To date, temperature fluctuation effects on endothermic poikilotherms such as the common eastern bumblebee (Bombus impatiens) are unknown even though bumblebees are the most important natural pollinators in North America.

Abstract:
While producing the highest power output of any vertebrate, hovering hummingbirds must also precisely modulate the activity of their primary flight muscles to vary wingbeat kinematics and modulate lift production. By examining how electromyograms (EMGs) and wingbeat kinematics of hummingbirds change in response to varying aerodynamic power requirements during load lifting trials and air density reduction trials, we can better understand how aerodynamic power output is modulated via neuromuscular control. During both treatments increased lift was achieved through increased stroke amplitude, but

In this paper, we propose Long-Short Term Memory (LSTM)-based mosquito’s genus classification, in which the time-frequency features are extracted from the wingbeat sound of mosquitos of three genera, Aedes, Anopheles and Culex. The extracted features are fed into the proposed LSTM-based classifier. We evaluated three time-frequency features, which are: Mel Spectrogram, Log-Mel spectrogram, and Mel-frequency Cepstral Coefficients (MFCC). The proposed scheme is composed by two LSTM layers and one Fully Connected layer connected to a SoftMax activation function. The classification accuracies usin

Abstract:
Abstract Most bats weigh less than 10 g. Megachiropterans are considerably heavier than microchiropterans, possibly because of their different ancestry or because they do not use laryngeal sonar. The predominance of medium-sized to small species of bats is compatible with general theories of extinction and speciation rates in relation to body size. There are few obvious links between diet and body size. It is more likely that biophysical factors associated with flight and/or echolocation constrain body size in bats. Models of flight power predict that flying vertebrates could weigh up to 12 kg

In this paper, we present a novel technique for identifying mosquitoes that carry tropical diseases using Deep Learning and SHAP for model interpretability. We propose an end-to-end deep (E2E) Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) architecture that leverages mosquito wingbeat sounds to extract relevant features. To achieve high-performance audio processing, we integrate Kapre, an audio processing library optimized for GPU execution. Our approach also incorporates SHAP to provide a transparent explanation of the model’s predictions, enabling us to identify and characterize the time-frequency patte
