Bird detection in audio : a survey and a challenge (2016)
Presentation / Conference
Stowell, D., Wood, M., Stylianou, Y., & Glotin, H. (2016, September). Bird detection in audio : a survey and a challenge. Presented at 26th IEEE International Workshop on Machine Learning for Signal Processing, Salerno, Italy

Many biological monitoring projects rely on acoustic detection of birds. Despite increasingly large datasets, this detection is often manual or semi-automatic, requiring manual tuning/postprocessing. We review the state of the art in automatic bird s... Read More about Bird detection in audio : a survey and a challenge.

The transfer of 137Cs, Pu isotopes and 90Sr to bird, bat and ground-dwelling small mammal species within the Chernobyl exclusion zone (2016)
Journal Article
Beresford, N., Gaschak, S., Maksimenko, A., & Wood, M. (2016). The transfer of 137Cs, Pu isotopes and 90Sr to bird, bat and ground-dwelling small mammal species within the Chernobyl exclusion zone. Journal of Environmental Radioactivity, 153, 231-236. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jenvrad.2015.12.027

Protected species are the focus of many radiological environmental assessments. However, the lack of radioecological data for many protected species presents a significant international challenge. Furthermore, there are legislative restrictions on...
