Urban greenery plays an important role in providing a biodiversity habitat of vegetation and birds as biotics in the urban ecosystem. The biodiversity can show attractions in Yogyakarta city as a tourism destination in Indonesia. This research was conducted on three types of roads of the secondary artery (SA), secondary collector (SC), and local (L). The bird diversity depended on tree greenery as its habitat and food source. This research aimed (1) to analyze bird diversity on the roadside greenery in Yogyakarta City, and (1) to reveal the attraction of birds on the urban greenery as a tourism attraction. The sample units were selected by the method of stratified random sampling. The bird observation was used by the method of transect line conducted on the three categories of roads in Yogyakarta City. The bird diversity was analyzed by Shannon-Wiener's (H') index diversity, and bird activity was descriptively analyzed. The number of birds found in the greenery was 685 belong to 12 species. The diversity indexes (H') of the birds on the roads of the secondary artery (SA), secondary collector (SC), and local (L) categories were 0.697 (low), 1.001 (medium), and 1.246 (medium). The index shows the equal quality of the bird attractions in the city. The low-medium of index value should be improved to reach a high H'. The improvement should be carried out by landscape planning for urban tourism through planting food source trees or habitat trees for birds on the urban greenery of Yogyakarta. The strength of the urban attraction of birds was also supported by species diversity, conservation status, bird activity, habitat trees, and the ecological function of urban trees on the roadside greenery of Yogyakarta city. Keywords: bird diversity, roadside greenery, urban attraction, urban greenery, Yogyakarta

Abstract In an urban residential complex, in addition to providing environmental services, trees also attract wild birds. The objective of this research was to identify trees planted in tropical urban residential areas that can attract wild birds. The research was conducted in Sentul City Residential Complex, Bogor, West Java, by observing wild birds that visit certain trees as part of their habitat components. Trees provide nectar, fruits, seeds, and insects as food for birds and nest materials. Trees also have important functions as birds’ cover and nesting sites. There were 103 tree species, all basically supporting the life of 51 bird species found in the study area. Examples of nectar producer trees were Spathodea campanulata, Callistemon citrinus, Erythrina crista-galli; fruit producers were Muntingia calabura, Syzygium polyanthum, Ficus benjamina; seeds producers were Leucaena leucocephala, Paraserianthes falcataria. Many trees also attracted insects for bird food, including Acacia mangium, Samanea saman. Conifers and small twigs and leaf petioles/rachis of many legumes, for example, Delonix regia, Calliandra calothyrsus) can be used as nest materials. Careful selection of trees could attract many wild birds to increase the environmental quality of the residential areas.

Purpose Birds are biological indicators for environment health in which their sightings and abundance could reflect a certain situation or become evaluation tool for co-existence of another species. Here, the study aims to observe urban settlements with substantial forestation, may it be artificial or natural, and the occurrence of bird assemblage across time. Considering the foraging activity of birds hardcoded with sustainability, their spatial overlap resultant into service provision, which can mean, baseline occurrence or an expected encounter equates to support system for ecological vigour. Design/methodology/approach From this, birds could indicate external environment vulnerability related to climatic fluctuations, whereby documentation of their arrival across spatial-temporal regimes allowed us to understand their distribution between residential and forested areas. Findings Though urban birds are abundant and viewed less important for conservation, the existence of certain species such as long-tailed shrike and little green pigeon disclose the types of food they consume and, the other types of birds attracted to their prey. With regard, the sightings of these birds would mean an encounter with 20 or more other species at a bird watching occasion, though it is limited to the sightings of urban birds. Originality/value Subject to criteria for green space, attaining plenty of bird species provides understanding of food availability, the support services and opportunity for urban birds to thrive in midst the opportunity for resources such as food, perching grounds and sufficient numbers of counterparts to reproduce into healthy urban bird populations.

Urbanization affected the birds; by establishing the urban areas, plantations had to be cut, which played an essential role in decreasing the diversity of birds. The bird’s species, including the migratory population, is a crucial bioindicator of the ecosystem that plays an important role in various natural phenomena, including the multiple variations in the various species of plants. The avian fauna is mainly affected by global change, roadways, noise pollution, urbanization, deforestation, risky human behaviors, climate change, and absurd land use. This study is based on a survey of peer-reviewed papers that summarize the effect of development, urbanization, urban areas, and climate change on the diversity of birds and migration according to their ecosystems. As a result, increasing population demands more urbanization and deforestation, but as a comparison, we need to establish effective strategies that can help avian fauna in urban areas and provide suitable conditions for the bird species.

Abstract This study aims to estimate the extent to which vegetation can encourage the presence of birds in the urban city area. Forest area, urban plantation, grove area, and residential area are The Muhammad Sabki Urban Forest location for bird and plant observed in some circular plots (r=25 m) in the morning and afternoon. Bird directly and identified using a field guide and marked plant species immediately identified using the Plantamor website. The data were analyzed using the Shannon-Wiener Index (H’), The Margalef Index (Dmg), and some using Correlative and regression analysis with IBM SPSS Statistics 28. The results obtained 23 species and a total of 534 individual birds from all observed urban space habitats. All Shannon-Wiener Index (H’) values in each studied habitat type showed a moderate diversity level and low species richness (Dmg). There are 22 plant species that have been identified as places of bird activity. Correlation analysis of the number of plant species on bird species and the number of bird species on bird individuals shows a strong relationship. However, regression analysis shows that the partially analyzed variables have no significant effect, so additional values are needed from other factors.

Urban parks, as critical components of the urban green space, have practical significance in studying the influence of landscape characteristics on birds. Nine urban parks in Fuzhou, China, were used as study objects to explore the influence of landscape features (patch, landscape, and surrounding environment indices) on bird communities. The results showed that (1) from December 2021 to February 2022, we found a total of 2874 individuals belonging to 61 species of 9 orders, 32 families, which were dominated by the birds of Passeriformes (37 species of 24 families, accounting for 89.91% of the total number of individuals) and resident birds in Fuzhou urban parks (n = 30; 85.46%); (2) The park area, park perimeter, woodland area, grassland area, and the park shape index increased as the distance to the city center increases; (3) Bird diversity responds differently to different landscape features. The total abundance of birds, the abundance of winter migrant birds, and the richness of winter migrant birds increased with the park area. And the park shape index affects positively for the the α-diversity of birds and the abundance of resident birds. Woodland proportion and waterbody shape index affected positively on the richness and α-diversity of resident birds. To promote the diversity of regional birds, it is recommended that the construction and planning of urban parks should enlarge the park area as much as possible, increase the proportion of woodland, and make shorelines more irregular. Our study could serve as a reference for the construction of biodiversity enhancements in core green areas of urban parks.

We human beings are becoming urban citizens. More and more people spend their lives in urban environments, so that the conservation and improvement of urban biodiversity is an increasingly hot topic. On the one hand, as cities grow bigger and more populated they can become more hostile for some birds, but cities can also be safer than the surrounding rural environment for others. On the other hand, factors affecting negatively or positively wild birds may also influence human’s health, either directly (e.g. pollution) or indirectly (enjoying wildlife diversity could contribute to improve our wellbeing). We review current state of knowledge on factors determining the abundance, diversity and health of urban birds, and derive methods for diagnosing what factors are acting in each particular case. Diagnoses are essential to design effective and efficient ways to manage urban bird diversity and improve it adaptively. We also address whether factors affecting birds could affect citizenship directly, so that urban birds can be used as indicators for healthy urban environments. Investigating and improving urban bird life can also improve human wellbeing through people’s involvement on citizen science programs. Monitoring approaches taken by both authorities and NGOs are still too general and badly designed, but collaboration among scientist, volunteers and authorities will contribute to make them effective. Improving citizen involvement will in turn contribute to improve urban bird diversity, closing a win-win loop for both people and wildlife wellbeing.

Background Tea plantations support regional sustainable development and have the potential to support more biodiversity than urban open spaces. Numerous studies have shown the value of low-intensity agroecosystems for preserving biodiversity, however tea plantations have received less attention. The relationship between tea plantations and the diversity of macro-organisms, such as birds, is still not fully understood. Methods We investigated the bird diversity and vegetation conditions and calculated landscape metrics in 30 tea plantations in Anji County, Zhejiang Province, China. At these 30 sampling sites, we recorded 262 individuals belonging to 37 species, which were classified into two guilds: nature- and urban-dependent birds. We used cluster analysis to group the sampling sites based on the abundance of the birds. Then we evaluated the effects of associated plant diversity in tea plantations and the surrounding landscape composition on these bird guilds using species association computation and a generalized linear model. Results The results show that the maintenance of bird diversity by tea plantations benefits both nature- and urban-dependent birds. We found that landscape-scale factors surrounding the tea plantations mainly affected the bird richness due to their habitat selection. Landscape agglomeration and habitat quality were the dominant landscape-scale metrics. Patch-scale factors of tea plantations, especially the vegetation structure, had a strong influence on the abundance of the birds. Nature-dependent birds preferred to occur in tea plantations with perennial herbs, while urban-dependent birds were attracted by the general distributed plants, as annual herbs. Therefore, we concluded that tea plantations play an important role as a transitional zone between natural habitats and urban areas, thus reducing the impact of urbanization and maintaining bird diversity in low-quality habitats.

This thesis examines whether urban residential areas, where small private gardens are the main wildlife resource, offer wild birds ecological opportunities as habitat or impose ecological constraints on them. Ecological opportunities should facilitate the establishment of an avifauna that does not depend on immigration, is similar in composition and structure to those in less-urbanised gardens and comprises individuals within normal ranges of biometrics, behaviour and condition. Ecological constraints may compromise the sustainability of this avifauna and restrict successful exploitation of the habitat to birds of particular characteristics. The analyses presented first investigate which bird species urbanise and why, and secondly which species use gardens and how. Patterns and trends in the use of gardens by British birds are examined, in general and in urban areas. A case study builds on these two themes, linking urban and garden ornithology by investigating an avifauna that uses gardens as its primary habitat but within a highly-urbanised context. Field studies of the breeding avifauna and some aspects of its ecology are presented, together with data from a ringing study on the use of feeding stations and the mobility and persistence of individual birds. More bird species urbanise than might be expected and urbanisation is not restricted to species with high behavioural flexibility. Gardens are an extension of natural habitat for many species, but in urban gardens utilisation rates are declining more than in gardens elsewhere, raising concerns for urban conservation policy. Small gardens in a highlyurbanised area support a breeding avifauna that is of low density but appears sustainable and of stable composition with individual birds maintaining normal territoriality and persisting over time. The spatial distribution of breeding territories is related to all-year artificial feeding but not to cat activity, and the mechanisms of birds' adaptation to urban life show interesting variation between species.

Streszczenie:
Urban nature conservation and sustainability discourses regularly state a desire to bring more �nature� and wildlife into towns and cities - for the perceived good of both people and wildlife. Yet many wildlife species that already live in urban areas are often seen as undesirable by people, and are caught up in the parallel discourses and practices of pest control. This partial disparity between the types of wildlife successfully inhabiting urban areas and the types that, put simplistically, different people want or don�t want in urban areas is further complicated by the heterogeneity of humans, nonhumans, ideas, practices and space-times that co-constitute the character of, and the uneven geographies of, different human-wildlife relations in urban areas. This heterogeneity, and these uneven relations, creates practical and ethical issues, not only for those directly involved in policy and management, but also for the constitution and potential implementation of a diverse body of social science theory that is concerned with developing an expanded political collective and fostering better relations between humans and nonhumans. In light of these issues, this thesis has examined and compared the specific constitution of particular, different, and uneven human-wildlife relations in urban areas in the cases of different bird species, with a particular focus on the built environment. It has subsequently considered the problems and opportunities that arise in seeking better relations. Using an approach derived from relational thinking, the contingent knowledges/ideas, practices, and human and nonhuman agencies involved in these relations have been assessed, revealing how diverse human-bird relations, and certain urban-space times, are produced. In spite of the problems that the heterogeneity and complexity of these relations presents for living with wildlife in urban areas, this thesis concludes that creatively experimenting with the form and practice of diverse urban landscapes offers opportunities for better relations.

Human activities cause drastic changes in the environment, such as the fragmentation of habitats, which is the greatest threat to the world's biodiversity and biogeography. By using birds to study habitat changes, it is possible that the type of habitat qualities that may still be possible near and in cities could be determined. It is possible that by improving the quality or conditions of habitats for birds, habitat qualities for other fauna would also improve. Birds are also considered to be good indicators as they are collectively sensitive to changes in their environments; however, they are also easy and relatively inexpensive to survey. There is no single definition for an urban area, however, these are the places where environmental problems greatly affect the quality of life. Urbanisation is a continuous complex process and in order to understand the ecology of urban areas, the reasons and factors behind this process need to be understood. Cities themselves represent the extremes of human-modified environments and usually only contain a few remnants of the original habitat. On the other hand, many cities in South Africa are characterised by secondary woodland, as trees and other plants are planted in gardens and parks. This creates habitat that could be advantageous to birds. Biotopes have been used to map this aspect of cities, and it has generally been assumed that birds will distribute accordingly. The hypothesis for this study was as follows: Due to the mobility of birds, coupled with their ability to use multiple biotopes (e.g. nesting and feeding), urban bird communities or bird demography will show patterns different from vegetation and structure based biotopes alone, and could therefore be considered as avitopes. The primary aim of this study was to determine the distribution patterns of avian diversity in Potchefstroom. Secondary aims/objectives for this study included: Determining the bird species distribution in Potchefstroom using point counts Determining the distribution of feeding and nesting guilds in Potchefstroom Determining whether it is possible to identify urban avian indicators with this type of research To investigate, develop and define the concept of "active-habitat selectors" (AHS) To introduce, develop and define the concept of "avitopes" The research area included the city of Potchefstroom, with its associated suburban areas, lkageng, Promosa, Mohadin, the rural areas and the surrounding natural areas. Point counts were used to identify bird species at 56 different sites. The data was analysed using to two different programmes, GS+ and Primer 5. The data was analysed according to species richness, species abundance and numbers of birds. I found that species were most abundant in the agricultural areas, the eastern residential areas and the military areas. The socio-economic factors affecting the abundance and distribution of all the species, still needs to be further researched. When looking at the total avian biomass for this study, biomass was highest in the industrial area, which is probably the most highly urbanised site in the study area, due to the high numbers of doves and pigeons. The results for species richness indicated that the greatest species richness occurred in the less highly urbanised areas, and was lowest in the more highly urbanised (industrial) areas. The lower half of the western part of lkageng also had a low species richness, even though this is not a highly urbanised area. However, it is possible that conditions in this area are highly unsuitable for bird species due to various reasons such nesting availability, resource availability, density of people etc. When looking at the results for granivores, the majority of the species, and more so their numbers, were found primarily in the urbanised areas, with some present in the agricultural areas. However, this could possibly be put down to the fact that the agricultural areas are primarily a foraging area. In the case of omnivores, the highest numbers were found in the military areas and included only a small part of the very top section of the residential areas. The military areas are not highly urbanised areas. However, it is possible the reason for their low occurrence in the more urbanised areas was due to the insufficient 0bSeNati0n time, since omnivores were 0bSe~edin many of the more urban areas whilst not sampling in those areas. Omnivores and granivores are superior competitors when compared to other species, as they are better able to exploit urban food resources. In the case of the insectivores, the majority of them were located outside of the more urbanised areas; however, a focal point did occur in the very southern tip of the eastern residential areas. It is possible that they nest in this part of the residential areas but forage in the nearby agricultural areas. Birds were therefore not restricted to a single area or biotope, as they are able to utilise various suitable areas for different purposes e.g. foraging, nesting etc. Because of their mobility and ability to choose a suitable habitat, I have introduced the concept of active-habitat-selectors (AHS) in this study. Various elements support this idea, such as birds being able to choose a suitable habitat through choice, rather than as an automatic response, and that birds are able to continuously select habitats to support their needs etc. A preliminary definition for AHS could be the following: Active habitat selectors are those species of which the adult individuals within their lifetime are almost continuously able to select multiple, suitable habitats for different purposes, through choice, due to their mobility and comparative knowledge of different available habitats that are in range. The concept of avitopes has also been introduced and various elements have been taken into account with its definition. Some of these elements include, birds are good indicators of environmental change, they are not restricted to any single areas, etc. Various elements should be considered when defining avitopes. A preliminary definition could be: Avitopes are geographically delineated areas, defined by diversity indices, and do not take into account non-naturally occurring, nonvagrant, and otherwise generalist bird species. There are still arguable aspects of these definitions, which will require more development, refinement and research. All the objectives for this study have been achieved and new issues identified, that will require further investigation.

This research seeks to pinpoint the telencephalic structures most closely correlated with feeding flexibility, which is operationalised as feeding innovation rate per taxon. By calculating a weighted average per taxon of 1030 feeding innovations collated from five zones of the world (western Europe, North America, Australia, New Zealand and India), the study shows that relative size of the hyperstriatum ventrale and, to a lesser extent, the neostriatum , best predicts weighted innovation rate; these two structures are thought to be functionally equivalent to the mammalian neocortex. The worst telencephalic predictors of innovation rate are two structures respectively thought to be involved in primary visual projection and the control of stereotyped, species-specific behaviour, the wulst area and the paleostriatum.
A second presumed correlate of behavioural flexibility, taxonomic variation in the use of urbanised and other anthropogenically-modified habitats, shows a consistent pattern in four geographical zones (Great Britain, North America, Australia and New Guinea), as well as a qualitative association with the relative size of the forebrain. There is no linear correlation, however, between urbanisation rate per taxon and either forebrain size or innovation rate, suggesting that other variables like diet, tameness and neophilia may have to be quantified at finer taxonomic levels in future studies of opportunism in habitat use.

The article discusses the features of the ecology of birds in the parks of Minsk. The territorial heterogeneity of quantitative indicators of the bird population was determined. Factors that threaten birds in urban areas have been identified. Measures are proposed to preserve the species diversity of the avifauna and improve the ecological conditions of habitats in the parks of the capital, such as the creation of special recreation areas for people on the outskirts of park areas, conservation of tree species, planting trees and shrubs, conservation of forest litter, installation of artificial nests and feeders, use for night lighting more modern lighting fixtures, promoting the protection and conservation of the avifauna, educating citizens in a humane and caring attitude towards the animal world. It is concluded that the conservation of bird biodiversity should be addressed in a comprehensive manner, depending on the ecological specifics of a particular bird species and a particular park.

This is an animal design project (design thinking to meet the needs of animals) which aims to bring birds into contact with humans and - through this solution - to bring the sound and movement produced by them into our lives (whether in the countryside, whether in the urban landscape), which can be translated into joy and peace achieved by the harmony of natural wildlife in our domestic environment.Starting question Knowing that birds are elusive and fearful animals, but also can bring joy and movement to our daily lives, how can we attract them to our coexistence? Supplementary feeding can be a good solution, and there are already some versions available on the international market, especially in countries where winter is more extreme. In southern Europe, feeding birds is still not a very common practice. Depending on the type of food the birds eat in their natural habitat and, depending on the endogenous birds, there are variations in the diet, and only a test of placing food available to the birds will determine the type of food to be placed in the supplementary feeder.The "AlimentáRIO" (feeder) is a ceramic supplementary feeding stand/holder that can contain various types of food, in order to test if birds can be attracted close to your home.There are several types of bird food: nectar, seeds, worms, fruit, tallow/lard... And, for each of these types of food, there is a specific type of feeder. The "AlimentáRIO" is a versatile feeder intended to cover all types. Nectar is more suitable for birds that can pollinate during late winter and early spring, when insects are less active. For these reasons, nectar should only be placed in feeders as a food supplement in the winter and autumn.In Portugal, there are some birds that drink nectar, according to Luís Pascoal da Silva , a researcher at CIBIO-inBIO. The scientist states that there are several pollinating birds in Portugal, but the study of the contribution of these birds to pollination is scarce. Seeds - besides the traditional canary seed - can contain sunflower seeds or nuts, such as walnuts and peanuts, depending on the endogenous birds. Fruit is also sought after by some species of birds, namely apples and pears, in addition to other exotic fruits. However, in general, birds can be drawn to any type of fruit. Fat balls are usually tallow/lard balls with seeds and fruits to reinforce supplementary feeding during cold seasons. The "AlimentáRIO" is a suspended wild bird feeder that can be hung in more or less sheltered places, made with materials resistant to the elements, without the need for maintenance. However, its cleaning must be done according to the recommendations referred to in the full article. As already mentioned, the construction materials are low maintenance, and the food container and the deflecting bell jar are made with stoneware - the type of ceramics more resistant to both bumps and thermal variations. The junction of the two parts is made with a nickel-plated threaded rod, covered with an aluminium tube, and all components are joined by manual screw threads, which allows to assemble and disassemble it without the use of any tools, thus facilitating an in-depth cleaning at the end of the supplementary feeding season.The "AlimentáRIO" has a lower part with four concavities for placing food, which allows the possible placement of different types of food at the same time, thus drawing different species. As it is a feeder consisting of a protective and deflecting bell jar, the birds are protected from possible direct attacks from predators and from falling leaves in the autumn. The fact that it is a supplementary feeder that can be hung with a rope makes it difficult for rats and squirrels to get close to the food, given that, if by chance these animals manage to descend on the rope, they must also overcome the challenge of getting through the bell jar (which is a spherical cap) to get to the place where the food is. The results of the placement tests of this supplementary feeder have been reassuring, which show that the feeders foster the approximation of wild birds in relatively short periods of time - between 3 weeks and one month.

Lately, the problem of biodiversity conservation is becoming more and more acute due to increase of anthropogenic impact. With the evolution of anthropogenic ecosystems, it also increases the vulnerability of species and biodiversity in general, as a result affecting ecological balance and environmental quality. The purpose of the researches was to evaluate the flora and fauna diversity in the Orhei urban ecosystem. The study was conducted during 2017 in 10 urban stations. Floral researches enumerate the presence of 146 species of magnoliophyte plants, grouped in 127 genera from 45 families. The most numerous were the species of the families: Asteraceae, Fabaceae, Rosaceae and Poaceae. The most frequents species are the eurybionte with wide ecological amplitude, some of which are included in the invasive species category. Vertebrates researches have revealed the fact, that the mammal fauna includes 29 species with a higher effective in the green areas of the urban ecosystem. The birds population of the ecosystem enumerate 58 species, prevail those from order Passeriformes.

This paper investigates the soundscape of a designed urban park in Chennai. Acoustic measurements and subjective evaluations of the soundscape were conducted at various locations in the identified case. The park was divided into nine zones for conducting the primary survey, such as parking area, entrance court, tree court, children’s play, herbal garden, butterfly garden, open-air theatre, duck pond, and mound. Fourteen different sounds were mapped based on the pilot survey that affected the users. Totally thirty responses were collected from each zone. The observed sounds include traffic sound, honking of vehicles, screaming of people & children, chuckling of children, the chirping of birds, ringing of the mobile phone, crowd talking, rustling of leaves, wind sound, play equipment sound, splashing of water, flowing of water, and machine sound. From the subjective survey, it is found that the individual soundscape preference collected from each space have no correlation with the overall soundscape experience of the same space. Based on the measurement data, the individual and the overall experience on soundscape perception were examined.

This review paper describes techniques proposed for applying microwave-induced plasma gasification (MIPG) for cleaning rivers, lakes and oceans of synthetic and organic waste pollutants by converting the waste materials into energy and useful raw materials. Rivers close to urban centers tend to get filled with man-made waste materials, such as plastics and paper, gradually forming floating masses that further trap biological materials and animals. In addition, sewage from residences and industries, as well as rainwater runoff pour into rivers and lakes carrying solid wastes into the water bodies. As a result, the water surfaces get covered with a stagnant, thick layer of synthetic and biological refuse which kill the fish, harm animals and birds, and breed disease-carrying vectors. Such destruction of water bodies is especially common in developing countries which lack the technology or the means to clean up the rivers. A terrible consequence of plastic and synthetic waste being dumped irresponsibly into the oceans is the presence of several large floating masses of garbage in the worlds’ oceans, formed by the action of gyres, or circulating ocean currents. In the Pacific Ocean, there are numerous debris fields that have been labeled the Great Pacific Garbage Patch. These patches contain whole plastic litters as well as smaller pieces of plastic, called microplastics, which are tiny fragments that were broken down by the action of waves. These waste products are ingested by animals, birds and fishes, causing death or harm. Some of the waste get washed ashore on beaches along with dead marine life. The best solution for eliminating all of the above waste management problems is by the application of MIPG systems to convert solid waste materials and contaminated water into syngas, organic fuels and raw materials. MIPG is the most efficient form of plasma gasification, which is able to process the most widest range of waste materials, while consuming only about a quarter of the energy released from the feedstock. MIPG systems can be scaled in size, power rating and waste-treatment capacity to match financial needs and waste processing requirements. MIPG systems can be set up in urban locations and on the shores of the waterbody, to filter and remove debris and contaminants and clean the water, while generating electric power to feed into the grid, and fuel or raw materials for industrial use. For eliminating the pelagic debris fields, the proposed design is to have ships fitted with waste collector and filtration systems that feeds the collected waste materials into a MIPG reactor, which converts the carbonaceous materials into syngas (H2 + CO). Some of the syngas made will be used to produce the electric power needed for running the plasma generator and onboard systems, while the remainder can be converted into methanol and other useful products through the Fischer-Tropsch process. This paper qualitatively describes the implementation schemes for the above processes, wherein MIPG technology will be used to clean up major waste problems affecting the earth’s water bodies and to convert the waste into energy and raw materials in a sustainable and environmentally friendly manner, while reducing the dependence on fossil fuels and the release of carbon dioxide and methane into the atmosphere.

We propose a task based pose optimization method for modular mobile manipulators. The modular mobile manipulators are designed and prototyped by researchers at University of Waterloo. The intended application of the modular mobile manipulator is to assist urban search and rescue in unstructured environments. A single mobile manipulator with limited capability cannot achieve complex tasks in this application. When several modular mobile manipulators are linked to one another, they can perform complex tasks through decentralized collaboration. The focus of this research is to develop and simulate a task based pose optimization algorithm for several mobile robots linked by dexterous arms. A genetic algorithm is a bio-inspired optimization technique that mimics the process of evolution. In nature, many living organisms, such as ants and birds use genetic algorithms to forge for food and achieve complex tasks. The advantages of the genetic algorithm are its simplicity and effectiveness. The proposed genetic algorithm in this research optimizes the manipulability measure of the onboard mechanical manipulator arms. To verify the proposed task based pose optimization algorithm, a formation of three mobile manipulators serially connected through their onboard mechanical manipulators is considered in this research. The control architecture is organized into a three level hierarchy. On the top level, a human operator sends guiding commands to the lead module in the formation through a wireless communication channel. The median level control aims at optimizing the manipulator pose. The base level control is established with the input-output linearization. To add realistic considerations into the simulation environment, fractal terrains are generated with the popular Diamond-Square algorithm. The inclination angle of each mobile manipulator on the terrain is estimated through a four-point terrain-matching algorithm. The simulation is completed in MATLAB. Repetitive simulations are pursued in this research to confirm the simplicity and effectiveness of our approach to control machines that interact with the natural environment. The simulation program established in this research serves as a test environment for the task based pose optimization of modular mobile manipulators. The major contributions of this research are the optimization algorithm and the novel hardware design for the specified tasks.

Like other bird and mammal species whose populations have been restored through conservation efforts, wild turkeys are treasured by many recreationists and outdoor enthusiasts. Wild turkeys have responded positively to wildlife habitat and population management. In some areas, however, their increased populations have led to increased damage to property and agricultural crops, and threats to human health and safety. Turkeys frequent agricultural fields, pastures, vineyards and orchards, as well as some urban and suburban neighborhoods. Because of this, they may cause damage or mistakenly be blamed for damage. Research has found that despite increases in turkey numbers and complaints, damage is often caused by other mammalian or bird species, not turkeys. In the instances where turkeys did cause damage, it was to specialty crops, vineyards, orchards, hay bales or silage pits during the winter. In cultured crops or gardens where wood chips, pine straw or other bedding materials (mulch) are placed around plants, wild turkeys sometimes scratch or dig up the material and damage plants when searching for food. Wild turkeys are a valuable game species, treasured by recreational hunters and wildlife enthusiasts.
