In North America, many Indigenous cultures consider hearing the call of an owl to be a bad omen, while Harriet Tubman used her imitations of owl calls as signals on the Underground Railroad.īecause owls typically claim territories and find mates during the winter, the best time to hear them can be in January and February, but it's possible to hear owl sounds year-round. Being able to identify calls is particularly important when it comes to owls, however, because their nocturnal habits mean they can be much easier to hear than to see!Īlthough owl calls are now commonly associated with Halloween, their cultural and historical significance extends far beyond a single spooky night. Owls call for many of the same reasons other birds do - to claim and defend territories, to attract mates, and to keep in contact with each other. We've assembled a collection of different owl sounds below to help you better know these fascinating predators of the night.īefore jumping into specific owl calls, though, let's review a few basics. If you've heard owl sounds at night around your neighborhood and are wondering about the caller's identity, you're in the right place. There's more to owl sounds than just “hoo, hoo.” Each species of owl has its own unique call - sometimes more than one. ![]()

This is a nice addition that plays to the game's strength of figuring out what to do: often an approach to merely complete the level will fail when more specific criteria are added, leading to more exploration and experimentation.Īs for the flaws, the graphics are pretty mediocre for those who care about it, but fundamentally they get the job done. Once a level has been mastered, harder missions can be attempted, like completing it in a certain timeframe, or without being hit. There's a good balance to it all in this respect. The AI and level design in JYDGE could hardly be called groundbreaking, but it is clever enough to encourage thought and care, in addition to the "let's just run in and shoot everything" mentality. To make progress, it's necessary to learn from each missed opportunity and try different approaches when the initial attempt fails. Running in gung ho every time will lead to multiple deaths. Scouting out levels is important, and learning where enemies are placed and exactly how they behave pays dividends. Many levels require several attempts to clear, but it's certainly not a case of luck or merely improving ones shooting skills. That's not to say that it's particularly easy though.Įnemies fight hard, and are prone to give chase and team up. In short, it is a simple experience, that allows everyone to jump right in. JYDGE has no such subtlety, and as such, it harks back to shooting games from decades ago. Many games allow players to choose weapons, or require the finding of other weapons, each with its own pros and cons. ![]() This simplicity continues with the weapons. Of course these features have their place in games, and can add a lot when done well, but it is somewhat refreshing just to be dropped somewhere with a gun and told to get on with it. There's little to no story, cut-scenes, emotions, or consequences of actions… other than the death of nameless characters. JYDGE plays to the strengths of mobile games, by focusing on action. ![]() ![]() ![]() We also tested the hypothesis that people (researchers) walking along forest trails collecting data on a regular basis since 2005 will have changed nesting behaviour in the vicinity of the trails. The forest is small, isolated, and visited by researchers, community members, and hunters. Here we provide the first information on environmental factors affecting nest site choice in a montane population of the rare and relatively understudied Nigerian/Cameroon chimpanzee ( Pan troglodytes ellioti) in Ngel Nyaki Forest Reserve, Nigeria. Regular antipoaching patrols and reforestation programs in degraded areas could potentially reduce threats to populations of endangered species and may increase suitable habitat area.Understanding nest site choice by chimpanzees has implications for ecology, anthropology, and in the collection of census data, yet it remains controversial. Overall, human activity and forest degradation affected the number of observed chimpanzee signs negatively. Secondary forests, habitat perforation, and edge length had a significant negative effect on the occurrence of chimpanzee signs. The mean encounter rate for signs of human activity was significantly higher in secondary (8.0 signs km−1) than in mature forests (0.9 signs km−1). The mean encounter rate for signs of chimpanzee activity was significantly higher in mature forests (2.3 signs km−1) than in secondary forests (0.3 signs km−1) and above 1000 m elevation (4.0 signs km−1) than below 1000 m (1.0 signs km−1). ![]() Chimpanzee density estimates ranged from 0.1 (direct observation) to 0.9 (distance sampling) individuals km−2 depending on estimation method with a mean nest group size of 7 ± 5.4 (SD). We used a generalized linear mixed model to predict the occurrence of chimpanzees in response to edge length (measured as the perimeter of core forest patches), core area of forest patches (measured as area of forest patches beyond an edge width of 100 m), habitat perforation (measured as the perimeter of nonforested landscape within core forest patches), patch size(measured as area of forest patches), and forest cover. In addition, we georeferenced signs of chimpanzee and human activity along line transects. We derived independent estimates of the population size of the Endangered Nigeria–Cameroon chimpanzee (Pan troglodytes ellioti) in Kom-Wum Forest Reserve, Cameroon, and surrounding unprotected forest areas through 1) direct observations, 2) camera trapping, 3) distance sampling, 4) marked nest counts, and 5) standing crop nest counts. In Cameroon, these activities cause a loss of suitable primate habitat and could ultimately threaten the survival of chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes). We used a generalized linear mixed model to predict the occurrence of chimpanzees in response to edge length (measured as the perimeter of core forest patches), core area of forest patches (measured as area of forest patches beyond an edge width of 100 m), habitat perforation (measured as the perimeter of Increased human activities such as commodity-led deforestation, extension of agriculture, urbanization, and wildfires are major drivers of forest loss worldwide. ![]() ![]() Increased human activities such as commodity-led deforestation, extension of agriculture, urbanization, and wildfires are major drivers of forest loss worldwide. ![]() ![]() ![]() Full publication information is given in the Bibliography, under author or editor where indicated.

![]() ![]() Now you don’t have to wonder whether what you’re doing in the web app is carrying into the extensions-or vice versa. We’ve heard that some of you were working in the web app rather than directly in the extensions, so we’ve given them a facelift. ![]() And there’s also a lot more in 3.7.1 to make everyone’s workflow faster, smoother, and more efficient. Designed to mirror the look and feel of the web app, you’ll now enjoy a freshly updated experience. ![]() That’s why we’re thrilled to announce that Frame.io 3.7.1 brings you completely redesigned Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects extensions. If you’re at NAB, stop by our first-ever Frame.io booth at 2426 in South Lower to hear more about these announcements, and say “Hi” to our team!.The Adobe Premiere Pro extension has been a pillar of Frame.io workflows since we first rolled it out five short years ago, and it’s always a top priority for us to keep improving the experience for our many Adobe users. You can now use the same API that our new DaVinci Resolve integration is built on to transform your own video workflow. This announcement is just one of many we shared today. If you don’t already have DaVinci Resolve Studio, you can download it here. If you already have DaVinci Resolve Studio, you’ll be able to access Frame.io inside DaVinci Resolve 16 as soon as the new beta is released. There’s no further action needed from you.įrame.io in DaVinci Resolve will be available soon in open beta in the Studio (paid) version only. Everything happens automatically when exporting your timeline. Straight-forward media exports-no extra steps necessaryĮntire timelines, or just sections, can be rendered, batch uploaded and synced at the same time to Frame.io with ease. The collaboration synchronization is unlike any other integration we support, you can hold entire conversations between Frame.io and DaVinci Resolve without needing to switch contexts. If they reply to your comment, their threaded response will show up as a marker right in your timeline. If you leave a comment on your timeline in DaVinci Resolve, teammates and collaborators will see it in Frame.io. Resolve will automatically swap the proxy with the full resolution file.Īutomatically synced, frame-accurate commentsįrame.io comments, replies, and annotations are automatically synced to your DaVinci Resolve timeline, no import or export necessary. Any Frame.io clips added to the Media Pool are automatically downloaded for use in the project you’re working on-and you can even start cutting while the full resolution file is being downloaded in the background. With Frame.io in DaVinci Resolve, you’ll have access to all your Frame.io accounts, teams, projects, and folders right in the DaVinci Resolve Media tab, immediately on sign-in. Your entire Frame.io workspace in Resolve’s Media Storage It’s a major step in pushing the boundaries of cloud video workflows even further so that you can continue to make better video, faster. ![]() Today’s announcement marks another significant milestone not only for us, but for the entire professional video community. For years, we’ve supported integrations in the top advanced editing tools, including Premiere Pro and After Effects and just last Fall, we introduced an all-new workflow extension built into Final Cut Pro X in partnership with Apple. This launch has been a long time coming, and we know it’s something many of you have been eager to get your hands on. Built entirely on our now public API, this is much more than just an integrationㄧFrame.io is a native feature set tightly woven into the fabric of DaVinci Resolve Studio, zero installation required. When we say it’s natively integrated, we mean it. It’s the NAB show in Las Vegas and we just shared some incredible news in partnership with Blackmagic Design: Frame.io is now natively integrated into DaVinci Resolve Studio. ![]() ![]() ![]() What is a NPI Number? : The National Provider Identifier (NPI) is a unique identification number for covered health care providers.

While he is smoking a cigar, in his nightclothes, the captain realizes that a rope ladder is still hanging down one side of the ship. While unusual and the men are surprised, they go to bed leaving the captain alone with his thoughts. Throughout the whole conversation, the captain emphasizes to the reader that he was both " a stranger to the ship" and "a stranger to myself."Īs the crew begins to leave, the captain directs the chief mate to let all "hands turn in without setting an anchor watch." Instead, because the men were tired and had been working hard, the captain himself would take the anchor watch. He learned this information from the tugboat skipper, when he came onboard the ship to deliver mail. The second mate, however, interrupts and says that the ship's name is Sephora and she carries coal. The chief mate begins to speculate on how the boat came to be there, his conclusion being that she was a ship from home lately arrived. While eating dinner, he mentions seeing the ship off of the coast. The sun sets and the captain descends to his quarters, along with his mates. The captain watches, almost regretfully, as the tug ship leaves him alone on his ship in the middle of complete silence, "an immense stillness." While he is alone on board, the captain sees another ship in the distance, something that he is extremely surprised to encounter. On the left, the captain sees a cluster of rocky islets and on his right, two clumps of tress mark the river's mouth and puffs of smoke show the path of the tug ship that recently guided the ship down the river. The narrator, a nameless young captain who has only been in charge of the ship for a fortnight, stands onboard his ship, gazing off the side of the vessel. The story begins on a nameless ship, anchored at the mouth of the River Meinam in the Gulf of Siam. ![]() ![]() ![]() In the animation below, we show the process of 200,000 iterations of perturbations towards a 'circle' shape: We accomplish this by biasing the random point movements towards a particular shape. However, as mentioned above, in order for these datasets to be effective tools for underscoring the importance of visualizing your data, they need to be visually distinct and clearly different. Repeating this subtle "perturbation" process enough times, results in a completely different dataset. So, we developed a technique to create these types of datasets – those which are identical over a range of statistical properties, yet produce dissimilar graphics. While very popular and effective for illustrating the importance of visualizing your data, they have been around for nearly 45 years, and it is not known how Anscombe came up with his datasets. ![]() In contrast the "Unstructured Quartet" on the right in Figure 1 also shares the same statistical properties as Anscombe's Quartet, however without any obvious underlying structure to the individual datasets, this quartet is not nearly as effective at demonstrating the importance of visualizing your data. The effectiveness of Anscombe's Quartet is not due to simply having four different datasets which generate the same statistical properties, it is that four clearly different and visually distinct datasets are producing the same statistical properties. However, after visualizing (plotting) the data, it becomes clear that the datasets are markedly different. Anscombe in 1973, Anscombe's Quartet is a set of four datasets, where each produces the same summary statistics (mean, standard deviation, and correlation), which could lead one to believe the datasets are quite similar. An effective (and often used) tool used to demonstrate that visualizing your data is in fact important is Anscome's Quartet. Some people are of the impression that charts are simply "pretty pictures", while all of the important information can be divined through statistical analysis. It can be difficult to demonstrate the importance of data visualization. ![]() |
