Morphometric Formula for Field Determination of the Sex of Steppe Eagle (Aquila nipalensis) Nestlings in Altai-Sayan Region by Natalya G. Andreyenkova, Maria A. Shalnova, Igor V. Karyakin, Elena P. Shnayder

“…Sex determination is also necessary when working with sick and injured birds, in rehabilitation centers, which do not always have the opportunity and time for genetic analysis. Experienced ornithologists in most cases can quite accurately determine the sex of nestling by eye, but this does not always work, and not all researchers have sufficient experience. …”

A Practical Model for Inbound Container Distribution Organization in Rail-Water Transhipping Terminal by Jiahao Zhao, Xiaoning Zhu, Yong Liu, Li Wang, Baicheng Yan

“…Then an inbound container distribution organization model (ICDOM) was established taking into account many factors such as transhipping capacity, network capacity, and importance of containers, in order to minimize the total container-hours in the coordination area, which reflects the efficiency of inbound container distribution organization. Additionally, a genetic algorithm (GA) was developed and the optimization results were evaluated, which showed that both of the model and the algorithm were effective.…”

A new species of Cyrtodactylus Gray, 1827 (Squamata, Gekkonidae) from Yunnan Nangunhe National Nature Reserve, China by Shuo Liu, Zhimin Li, Wenguang Duan, Mian Hou, Dingqi Rao

“…Phylogenetically, it was recovered as the sister species of C. zhenkangensis, with a genetic distance of 9.2% in the ND2 gene. Morphologically, the new species can be separated from C. zhenkangensis by the discontinuity of enlarged femoral scales and enlarged precloacal scales, the absence of femoral pores, and the difference in dorsal color pattern. …”

LEO satellite constellation design with multi-QoS guarantee for non-terrestrial network by Ruyan WANG, Xianyi YE, Peng HE, Yaping CUI, Dapeng WU, Fedotov Alexander

“…LEO satellite constellation (LSC) offers seamless and fast connectivity for non-terrestrial network (NTN).However, the lack of QoS guarantees for users significantly impacts the performance of the NTN system.Considering multi-QoS metrics, a capacity and downlink budget model for LSC was established, and subsequently, the establishment of inter-satellite links was framed as a link budget issue for the QoS guarantee.The non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm (INSGA-II) with improved crossover and mutation operators was proposed to optimize LSC, aiming to maximize coverage and system capacity while minimizing constellation costs.The numerical results demonstrate that the designed LSC exhibits comparable or superior performance to Telesat and Kepler, and its scale is only 64% of the Kepler system.…”
