@asgersvenning.bsky.social rocks the boat with this new paper, code and data describing an amazing enabling #computervision tool to localize #insects in images. So many applications in #entomology, #monitoring and #conservation @insectai.bsky.social @mambo-project.eu @onestop-project.eu
I am excited to share that my first first-author paper, “A General Method for Detection and Segmentation of Terrestrial Arthropods in Images,” is now available on preprint.

If you are interested take a look at my blog (asgersvenning.com/flat-bug/) or consider reading the pre-print (linked below).

Charismatic species like lions 🦁 steal the spotlight, but what about the underdogs of nature?

Simon Watt & Prof. Bob Smith join #NatureInsight to discuss the “ugly” species we ignore—and why they deserve a second look. 🌍💔

Nice read! 🐛🦋
Early detection is critical to eradication and management of invasive species, and curious members of the public play a key role by sharing observations online. Integrating sightings from a bug-curious public into biosecurity surveillance is a valuable approach for invasive species management.

Nutrients, isolation and lack of grazing limit plant diversity in restored wetlands 🌱🌏 🧪

Restoration of plant diversity in wetlands is challenging, but the results of this study point to potential remedies 💭

Humanity faces a triple planetary crisis: climate change, biodiversity loss, & pollution. Sometimes, it’s hard not to lose hope. UNEP is all about visionary blue-sky thinking for Earth & now we are on BlueSky, sharing ideas, solutions, & voices from the people most affected by environmental change.
