The Green-backed Firecrown hummingbird is an essential pollinator in the temperate rainforests of southern South America. However, little is known about the ecology of these birds. Authors examined the foraging patterns of these birds identifying interesting differences in foraging patterns among season, age and sex.

Here the author investigates how much heat energy is output and recovered from a conventional electric light bulb.

The authors evaluated the effectiveness of common stress-relief strategies used by high schoolers.

The authors looked at the effects of different treatments using flies with neurodevelopmental disorders.

The authors looked at how injuries sustained during water tubing, that require treatment at an emergency department, differ between males and females.

The authors looked at energy efficient ways to generate small nitrogenous compounds.

Here the authors present an autonomous drone air filtration system that uses a novel algorithm, the gradient ascent ML particle filter (GA/MLPF), to efficiently locate and mitigate outdoor air pollution. They demonstrate that their GA/MLPF algorithm is significantly more efficient than the conventional gradient ascent algorithm, reducing both the time and number of waypoints needed to find the source of pollution.

The authors looked at public knowledge regarding suggested daily limits for sugar intake and then looked at how sugar levels vary in the same drink obtained from different sources and across different days.

The authors visualized black holes and wormholes using code and ray-tracing programs.

The authors looked at the ability of different deep learning models to predict the presence of lung cancer from chest CT scans. They found that a pre-trained CNN model performed better than an autoencoder model.
