1) There are two types of zebra societies - plains zebras and mountain zebras which have closed membership, while Grevy's zebras and Asian wild asses have open membership. This matters because wandering males in open societies don't protect females and young, putting them more at risk of lion predation. 2) Grevy's zebras don't like black cotton soil, which can lead to poor performance in hybrids. 3) Some Laikipia zebra populations are declining, with actual populations lower than theoretical populations, indicating new approaches are needed to balance protecting at-risk species.

Lion project
Lions live in social groups called prides that are made up of related females and offspring along with a few adult males. Young males eventually leave their native pride to establish their own. While modern lions live in Africa and Asia, prehistoric lions once ranged across Europe, Asia, the Americas and Africa over 1.8 million years ago. One such extinct lion was the European cave lion, one of the largest cat species ever.

This document provides information about lion conservation efforts in Kenya. It discusses how the lion population in Kenya has declined to fewer than 2,000 lions, due mostly to small parks without buffers, bushmeat poaching, and conflicts with livestock. The Laikipia Predator Project has worked since 1997 with Kenyan authorities, ranchers, and communities to develop coexistence strategies between people, livestock, and predators in Laikipia. Through their efforts, they have restored the lion population to 250 lions while reducing livestock depredation rates from 50% to as low as 0%. Their work conserving lions through non-lethal measures has benefited the local economy through tourism, which employs over 1,300 people.

This document summarizes a research project exploring the relationship between water availability and small-scale agricultural systems near Mount Kenya. The research examines how hydrologic variability is offset by irrigation using river water, which supports a range of agricultural operations. It also investigates the potential impacts of climate change on water availability and livelihoods in the area. The research questions guiding the study examine current and past irrigation use, populations dependent on irrigation for livelihoods, and factors affecting the resilience of dryland agriculture. The ongoing work involves stream gauging, isotopic sampling, and the development of a socio-hydrologic model to evaluate outcomes of climate and land use change on total crop yields.

Holistic grazing management is studied and compared to traditional grazing. Animal health, vegetation, and wildlife are examined on plots practicing holistic grazing. Methods include measuring milk yield and growth rates in animals, analyzing vegetation transects, using camera traps and GPS data to understand land usage. Preliminary results show higher milk yields and animal growth rates for those grazing inside holistically managed areas. Future work includes further analyzing animal health measures, production cage data, and camera trap photos.
Discovery Day Mertes
This study examined how three East African bird species—Von der Decken's hornbill, fork-tailed drongo, and Kori bustard—respond to environmental conditions at different spatial scales ranging from 10m to 1000m. The researchers found that at large scales, drongos were associated with variable shrub density and proximity to roads, hornbills were restricted to certain land cover classes, and bustards selected areas with restricted elevations and soil types. At small scales, drongos selected areas with low shrub density and variable terrain and roads, hornbills preferred complex vegetation and dense shrubs, and bustards were found in areas with variable shrub density and soil types. Species responses were consistent

Camel milk production is growing in importance, but little is known about camel health and disease. The document discusses monitoring camel health by studying mastitis, an udder infection that impacts milk production. Researchers will survey herders about milking practices and veterinary access. They will also collect milk samples to culture any mastitis-causing bacteria and examine milk container cleanliness to identify risks and make recommendations for improving camel health, milk safety, and production.
Discovery Day Unks
This document summarizes Ryan Unks' research on linking pastoralism and landscape ecology in Laikipia County, Kenya. It discusses how pastoralist herding practices have changed over time due to loss of land and influences of the market. Vegetation across the landscape has also changed, with increases in unpalatable species and decreases in species important for pastoralists. The research aims to understand how social and institutional factors influence grazing practices and spatial relationships between plant communities and grazing. The goal is to explore implications of interrelated social and ecological changes for livelihoods and natural resource management. Methods include interviews, surveys, satellite image analysis, and plant community analysis.

This document discusses a project studying pollination in plant communities. The project aims to identify the key pollinator species for the environment and determine how vulnerable the plant community would be if pollinators were lost. This is important because pollinators are under threat from habitat loss, pesticides, and disease, posing a risk to food security. While Kenyan honeybees are currently doing well, their long term prospects are uncertain, highlighting the need to better understand pollinator communities.
Discovery Day: Milligan
The document discusses an experimental study on the effects of an invasive ant species, Pheidole megacephala, on decomposer communities. The study used 6 site pairs with 312 dung samples and 624 pitfall traps to compare diversity and decomposition rates in invaded versus uninvaded areas. Preliminary results found 16.5-22.4% lower species diversity and a lower mass loss per day of 19.43% in invaded areas compared to 33.97% in uninvaded areas, suggesting the invasive ant is negatively impacting decomposer communities.

The debris of the ‘last major merger’ is dynamically young
The Milky Way’s (MW) inner stellar halo contains an [Fe/H]-rich component with highly eccentric orbits, often referred to as the
‘last major merger.’ Hypotheses for the origin of this component include Gaia-Sausage/Enceladus (GSE), where the progenitor
collided with the MW proto-disc 8–11 Gyr ago, and the Virgo Radial Merger (VRM), where the progenitor collided with the
MW disc within the last 3 Gyr. These two scenarios make different predictions about observable structure in local phase space,
because the morphology of debris depends on how long it has had to phase mix. The recently identified phase-space folds in Gaia
DR3 have positive caustic velocities, making them fundamentally different than the phase-mixed chevrons found in simulations
at late times. Roughly 20 per cent of the stars in the prograde local stellar halo are associated with the observed caustics. Based
on a simple phase-mixing model, the observed number of caustics are consistent with a merger that occurred 1–2 Gyr ago.
We also compare the observed phase-space distribution to FIRE-2 Latte simulations of GSE-like mergers, using a quantitative
measurement of phase mixing (2D causticality). The observed local phase-space distribution best matches the simulated data
1–2 Gyr after collision, and certainly not later than 3 Gyr. This is further evidence that the progenitor of the ‘last major merger’
did not collide with the MW proto-disc at early times, as is thought for the GSE, but instead collided with the MW disc within
the last few Gyr, consistent with the body of work surrounding the VRM.
Immersive Learning That Works: Research Grounding and Paths Forward
We will metaverse into the essence of immersive learning, into its three dimensions and conceptual models. This approach encompasses elements from teaching methodologies to social involvement, through organizational concerns and technologies. Challenging the perception of learning as knowledge transfer, we introduce a 'Uses, Practices & Strategies' model operationalized by the 'Immersive Learning Brain' and ‘Immersion Cube’ frameworks. This approach offers a comprehensive guide through the intricacies of immersive educational experiences and spotlighting research frontiers, along the immersion dimensions of system, narrative, and agency. Our discourse extends to stakeholders beyond the academic sphere, addressing the interests of technologists, instructional designers, and policymakers. We span various contexts, from formal education to organizational transformation to the new horizon of an AI-pervasive society. This keynote aims to unite the iLRN community in a collaborative journey towards a future where immersive learning research and practice coalesce, paving the way for innovative educational research and practice landscapes.
Applied Science: Thermodynamics, Laws & Methodology.pdf
When I was asked to give a companion lecture in support of ‘The Philosophy of Science’ (https://shorturl.at/4pUXz) I decided not to walk through the detail of the many methodologies in order of use. Instead, I chose to employ a long standing, and ongoing, scientific development as an exemplar. And so, I chose the ever evolving story of Thermodynamics as a scientific investigation at its best.
Conducted over a period of >200 years, Thermodynamics R&D, and application, benefitted from the highest levels of professionalism, collaboration, and technical thoroughness. New layers of application, methodology, and practice were made possible by the progressive advance of technology. In turn, this has seen measurement and modelling accuracy continually improved at a micro and macro level.
Perhaps most importantly, Thermodynamics rapidly became a primary tool in the advance of applied science/engineering/technology, spanning micro-tech, to aerospace and cosmology. I can think of no better a story to illustrate the breadth of scientific methodologies and applications at their best.

New layers of application, methodology, and practice were made possible by the progressive advance of technology. In turn, this has seen measurement and modelling accuracy continually improved at a micro and macro level.
Perhaps most importantly, Thermodynamics rapidly became a primary tool in the advance of applied science/engineering/technology, spanning micro-tech, to aerospace and cosmology. I can think of no better a story to illustrate the breadth of scientific methodologies and applications at their best.

The technology uses reclaimed CO₂ as the dyeing medium in a closed loop process. When pressurized, CO₂ becomes supercritical (SC-CO₂). In this state CO₂ has a very high solvent power, allowing the dye to dissolve easily.
Describing and Interpreting an Immersive Learning Case with the Immersion Cub...
Current descriptions of immersive learning cases are often difficult or impossible to compare. This is due to a myriad of different options on what details to include, which aspects are relevant, and on the descriptive approaches employed. Also, these aspects often combine very specific details with more general guidelines or indicate intents and rationales without clarifying their implementation. In this paper we provide a method to describe immersive learning cases that is structured to enable comparisons, yet flexible enough to allow researchers and practitioners to decide which aspects to include. This method leverages a taxonomy that classifies educational aspects at three levels (uses, practices, and strategies) and then utilizes two frameworks, the Immersive Learning Brain and the Immersion Cube, to enable a structured description and interpretation of immersive learning cases. The method is then demonstrated on a published immersive learning case on training for wind turbine maintenance using virtual reality. Applying the method results in a structured artifact, the Immersive Learning Case Sheet, that tags the case with its proximal uses, practices, and strategies, and refines the free text case description to ensure that matching details are included. This contribution is thus a case description method in support of future comparative research of immersive learning cases. We then discuss how the resulting description and interpretation can be leveraged to change immersion learning cases, by enriching them (considering low-effort changes or additions) or innovating (exploring more challenging avenues of transformation). The method holds significant promise to support better-grounded research in immersive learning.

EWOCS-I: The catalog of X-ray sources in Westerlund 1 from the Extended Weste...
Context. With a mass exceeding several 104 M⊙ and a rich and dense population of massive stars, supermassive young star clusters
represent the most massive star-forming environment that is dominated by the feedback from massive stars and gravitational interactions
among stars.
Aims. In this paper we present the Extended Westerlund 1 and 2 Open Clusters Survey (EWOCS) project, which aims to investigate
the influence of the starburst environment on the formation of stars and planets, and on the evolution of both low and high mass stars.
The primary targets of this project are Westerlund 1 and 2, the closest supermassive star clusters to the Sun.
Methods. The project is based primarily on recent observations conducted with the Chandra and JWST observatories. Specifically,
the Chandra survey of Westerlund 1 consists of 36 new ACIS-I observations, nearly co-pointed, for a total exposure time of 1 Msec.
Additionally, we included 8 archival Chandra/ACIS-S observations. This paper presents the resulting catalog of X-ray sources within
and around Westerlund 1. Sources were detected by combining various existing methods, and photon extraction and source validation
were carried out using the ACIS-Extract software.
Results. The EWOCS X-ray catalog comprises 5963 validated sources out of the 9420 initially provided to ACIS-Extract, reaching a
photon flux threshold of approximately 2 × 10−8 photons cm−2
s
−1
. The X-ray sources exhibit a highly concentrated spatial distribution,
with 1075 sources located within the central 1 arcmin. We have successfully detected X-ray emissions from 126 out of the 166 known
massive stars of the cluster, and we have collected over 71 000 photons from the magnetar CXO J164710.20-455217.
