An award is made to the University of Michigan and the University of Pittsburgh to develop and demonstrate a new logger and analytics platform for small terrestrial animal monitoring called mSAIL (Michigan Small Animal Integrated Logger). mSAIL is a millimeter-scale miniaturized tag attached to animals to record, store, and relay environmental, physiological, and behavioral data. This information is critical not only for a richer mechanistic understanding of animal and ecosystem function, but also in order to predict how these systems will change as Earth’s climate changes. This research and resulting technology will have a significant broad impact such as engaging the public and raising scientific literacy because the machine learning algorithms for mSAIL will be trained using real-world data collected by community volunteers. As well, this work will provide substantial mentoring and training opportunities for diverse participants in a cross-disciplinary environment.This research program tackles technical challenges for developing and applying millimeter-scale data loggers with improved information processing and visualization. The program aims to build a 50 mg millimeter-scale mSAIL device that 1) simultaneously measures light intensity, temperature, air pressure, and acceleration, 2) stores the recorded data in non-volatile memory, and 3) wirelessly communicates collected data. An integrated, chip-size battery will support device operation for one month and an energy-harvesting photovoltaic cell will provide essentially perpetual operation with as little as 500 lux light level. Using mSAIL, increasingly complex datasets that simultaneously document animal behavior and environment will be acquired from an expanded repertoire of species, down to those of sub-gram weight. mSAIL will spur cross-disciplinary collaborations to address a range of problems including the impact of anthropogenic environmental change (e.g. light pollution) on wildlife and the long-range migration of small animals such as monarch butterflies. This award is co-funded with support from the Animal Behavior Program in the Division of Integrative Organismal Systems.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

向密歇根大学和匹兹堡大学颁发了奖励，以开发和展示一个新的记录仪和分析平台，用于小型陆地动物监测，称为MSAIL（密歇根州小动物综合记录仪）。 MSAIL是一个毫米尺度的微型化标签，该标签附着在动物上，以记录，存储和继电器环境，生理和行为数据。这些信息不仅对于对动物和生态系统功能的更丰富的机械理解至关重要，而且还为了预测这些系统将如何随着地球气候变化而变化。这项研究和结果技术将产生重大影响，例如吸引公众和提高科学文献，因为将使用社区志愿者收集的现实世界数据对MSAIL的机器学习算法进行培训。同样，这项工作将为潜水员参与者提供跨学科环境的大量心理和培训机会。该研究计划应对开发和应用毫米级的数据记录仪的技术挑战，并通过改进的信息处理和可视化来应对。该计划旨在构建一个50 mg毫克的MSAIL设备，1）简单地测量光强度，温度，气压和加速度，2）将记录的数据存储在非挥发性内存中，而3）无线传达收集的数据。一个集成的芯片大小电池将支持一个月的设备操作，而能量收获的光伏电池基本上将提供永久操作，仅500 lux灯光级别。使用MSAIL，简单地记录动物行为和环境的越来越复杂的数据集将从扩展的物种曲目中获取，直到sub-gram重量的物种。 MSAIL将刺激跨学科的合作，以解决一系列问题，包括人为环境变化（例如光污染）对野生动植物的影响以及小动物（例如君主蝴蝶）的远距离迁移。该奖项是在综合有机系统部门的动物行为计划的支持下共同资助的。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并被认为是使用基金会的知识分子优点和更广泛的影响审查标准的评估来获得的支持。
