Bird species usually are counted twice a year by wildlife surveyors: once during the breeding season and again during the .

New technology, however, is increasing the accuracy of bird population studies. A team of 天美视频 researchers is developing a model to recognize bird calls.

The technology world is punctuated by startups, and 天美视频 is 鈥渟tarting up鈥� its own program to invigorate computer science education in the San Joaquin Valley.

The National Science Foundation awarded a $300,000, two-year grant to support START UP SJV, which stands for 鈥淪TEM Teachers Alliance for Regional Tech thinking through Underrepresented Professional development in the San Joaquin Valley.鈥�

Researchers at the Center for Information Technology Research in the Interest of Society (CITRIS) and the Banatao Institute at the University of California have launched a new public-private pilot initiative to bring telehealth services to underserved rural residents in Merced County.

Everyone will have opportunities to learn about collaborative research at the intersections of COVID-19 and topics related to the environment, health and equity through a series of online conference sessions this fall.

Forest restoration is often associated with mitigating wildfire risk and improving ecosystem health throughout the Sierra Nevada. But restoration also dramatically affects water use within forests and the amount of runoff that flows downstream.

The world is a complex place, and humanity faces major challenges. Climate change mitigation might be the most difficult, in large part because of the interdependency of living things and their ecosystems.

How do people transform economic systems so they are also sustainable for people and the planet?

鈥淚f we don鈥檛 consider how everything connects from a systems perspective, we鈥檙e not going to solve grand challenges such as climate change,鈥� Professor Tracey Osborne said. 鈥淣ot even close.鈥�

As scientists build smaller and smaller machines, they need to understand the invisible forces that make those machines work.

Thanks to research and the initiative of then-天美视频 graduate student Jake Pate, some of those forces can now be measured and manipulated.

Wildfire is a natural process necessary to many ecosystems. But wildfires are getting worse and more damaging, and it is our fault, according to new research.

A , published in a new Nature journal called Nature Reviews Earth & Environment, indicates the global economic and environmental damage caused by wildfire will only increase because of human-caused climate change.

However, we are also able to save ourselves, the researchers said.

天美视频 is rapidly gaining a strong reputation for research and scientific computing across many disciplines and a major expansion of its computing infrastructure is about to cement the campus鈥� status as a research computing hub.

There is a growing acceptance and adoption of drones 鈥� unmanned aircraft systems 鈥� by local and state agencies across the U.S.

Advocates say there鈥檚 good reason: Drones can be a powerful tool in environmental monitoring, agriculture and even construction. But as with any new technology, there is going to be a learning curve to make drones effective, including policies and training.
