Showing off her pinning and labelling. The reference collection of #dungbeetles from @Liyuen93 research on dung beetle mammal nwtworks @UNDPproject is now housed in @UMS_EcoCampus

We did most of our flights using #copters. They're shorter range & use more battery, but are very steady in the air & allowed us to capture high resolution images of the forest canopy. #Drones #CitizenScience @UNDPproject @AzuanDourin See what we found-https://t.co/IxUNsudVC4

For those of you who are new to the @OrangutanSurvey - learn about what we're doing, & why #drones are so useful & get involved! @OpenExplorer #CitizenScience #Borneo #SDG15 @UoABioSci @JGAMartin @UNDPproject https://t.co/CGqFKiObRB

Abstract submitted for @BritishEcolSoc #UTE2019!
Looking forward to talking about #Orangutans, #drones, human land-use and @UNDPproject!

Using #drones to find #Orangutan nests & strangler figs (a vital food source) in #Sabah. The incredible field team has covered ~100km2 of forest & over 2600 #CitizenScientists are helping us analyse the data! #tech4wildlife @UoABioSci @WILDLABSNET https://t.co/lVkDEjF1dM

Liftoff! The fantastic @UNDPproject Field team has finished all the #drone flights & now we need your help! Get on the #OrangutanNestWatch & help us find some nests! #CitizenScience #SDG15

Just found a beautiful pocket of tree ferns (I think) and palms in primary forest in the @UNDPproject landscape. #DroneEcology turns over so much information from the landscape, it will take ages to unpack it.

[Sol Milne, PhD @solomilne]

Got a great snap of what I think is Rhinoceros #Hornbill (Buceros rhinoceros) passing over a Strangler Fig (Ficus kerkhovenii) in the @UNDPproject.

Don't stop when you are tired, stop when you are done!

My fieldworks come to an end. Thanks for all the supports.

[Multi-use Landscapes @UNDPproject]

Fieldwork is complete! #dungbeetle & #ecosystemfunctioning sampling is complete across our land use gradient in Sabah! Massive kudos to @UMS_EcoCampus student @Liyuen93 and her research assistants on 3 years of hard work! Now for some analysis!

[Orangutan Nest Watch @OrangutanSurvey]

New surveys coming soon!! Our tireless field team have captured some amazing images on drone flights across the @UNDPproject area, & we're looking forward to releasing them soon!! #Borneo #DroneEcology #WatchThisSpace #CitizenScience @UoABioSci https://t.co/zYGFGo7xGp

[Md.Azuan @AzuanDourin]

Look at the map, luasong forest where I work with UNDP projects. #fieldwork and #drones like making transects and monitoring using drones to see #orangutans nests!

[Md.Azuan @AzuanDourin]

We are here team #carbon fly a #drone looking for the nest!

Guess who is the predator for my babies (fake caterpillar)?

Those results are so impressed!

Huge thank you to @JonathanParrett who spent the last 4 months iding thousands upon thousands of @HMTF_LOMBOK @SAFE_Project #dungbeetles, training @SEARRP RAs & PhD students @Liyuen93 @JoeWilliamson93, & making an amazing key and guide to the dung beetles of Sabah. Terima kasih!

#IamABiologist working with the @UNDPproject @OrangutanSurvey, trying to understand how human impact on forests in #Sabah, Malaysian Borneo, is affecting #Orangutan habitat. I fly #drones over large areas of forest in order to find Orangutan nests & Strangler Fig trees.
