When Hurricane Ian made landfall n the suthwest Flrida cast as a Categry 4 strm, it brught strng winds and heavy rain. It was a deadly hurricane, attacking mre than fur millin peple, and causing serius flding and at least 150 deaths. Hwever, during the disaster, there was ne innvative cmmunity that weathered the strm well: Babcck Ranch, the brainchild f Syd Kitsn.
Lcated 30 miles inland, Babcck Ranch is an envirnmentally friendly and fully sustainable twn that Syd Kitsn and his partners hped wuld be hurricane prf. Its hmes are built t g thrugh severe weather withut lsing essential services like electricity, water, r the Internet. A significant factr in its design is that pwer and. Internet lines are buried t avid wind damage. Additinally, large pnds surrund the develpment t prtect huses frm flding. As a backup, streets are designed t absrb fldwaters and spare the huses.
Central t Babcck Ranch’s sustainability is its extensive use f slar energy. The cmmunity pssesses an 870-acre slar farm with 700,000 individual panels perated by Flrida Pwer & Light, capable f pwering 30,000 hmes — far mre than the 5,000 residents currently living there.

Yung male zebra finches (斑胸草雀) learn t cmmunicate by listening t adults. In the lab, researchers have fund that these sngbirds can learn frm audi recrdings. But zebra finches learn better when they listen t live male finches, ntes Ralph Simn. He studies hw animals make and use sunds at the Nuremberg Z in Germany. Simn is part f the team that built RbFinch, a rbtic singing cach fr finches.
The researchers recrded vides f adult males t analyze hw their beaks (喙) mve when they sing. They then prgrammed their rbts t cpy thse beak mvements. Finally, the researchers painted their RbFinches the same clrs as the real birds.
The team divided 45 yung finches int fur grups. Sme nly heard recrdings f finch sngs played by a speaker. Others listened with female birds that weren’t singing. RbFinches taught the tw ther grups f chicks. The birdsngs played frm a speaker right behind the rbts. And the rbts’ beaks mved either in r ut f syne (协调) with the sngs. That allwed the team t investigate whether beak r head mvements aid sng learning.
The birds hused with RbFinches eventually spent mst f their time near the rbt and its speaker. During the first week, finches living with a RbFinch whse sng was in sync with its beak mtins spent 27 percent f their time near the rbt. Thse caged with a rbt playing sngs ut f syne nly spent 5 percent f their time near the setup during the first week. Finches that heard nly the audi withut RbFinch r female birds spent even less time arund the sund surce. Yung finches partnered with RbFinches sang less while the sngs played. This was especially true when the rbts’ beaks mved in sync with the sngs. Thse paired with a female als sang less while hearing sngs. The yung finches seemed t pay clse attentin t the rbts’ mvements during training sessins.
Simn hpes researchers will adapt this apprach t building rbts f ther species, t.

When Hurricane Ian made landfall n the suthwest Flrida cast as a Categry 4 strm, it brught strng winds and heavy rain. It was a deadly hurricane, attacking mre than fur millin peple, and causing serius flding and at least 150 deaths. Hwever, during the disaster, there was ne innvative cmmunity that weathered the strm well: Babcck Ranch, the brainchild f Syd Kitsn.
Lcated 30 miles inland, Babcck Ranch is an envirnmentally friendly and fully sustainable twn that Syd Kitsn and his partners hped wuld be hurricane prf. Its hmes are built t g thrugh severe weather withut lsing essential services like electricity, water, r the Internet. A significant factr in its design is that pwer and. Internet lines are buried t avid wind damage. Additinally, large pnds surrund the develpment t prtect huses frm flding. As a backup, streets are designed t absrb fldwaters and spare the huses.

Yung male zebra finches (斑胸草雀) learn t cmmunicate by listening t adults. In the lab, researchers have fund that these sngbirds can learn frm audi recrdings. But zebra finches learn better when they listen t live male finches, ntes Ralph Simn. He studies hw animals make and use sunds at the Nuremberg Z in Germany. Simn is part f the team that built RbFinch, a rbtic singing cach fr finches.
The researchers recrded vides f adult males t analyze hw their beaks (喙) mve when they sing. They then prgrammed their rbts t cpy thse beak mvements. Finally, the researchers painted their RbFinches the same clrs as the real birds.
The team divided 45 yung finches int fur grups. Sme nly heard recrdings f finch sngs played by a speaker. Others listened with female birds that weren’t singing. RbFinches taught the tw ther grups f chicks. The birdsngs played frm a speaker right behind the rbts. And the rbts’ beaks mved either in r ut f syne (协调) with the sngs. That allwed the team t investigate whether beak r head mvements aid sng learning.
The birds hused with RbFinches eventually spent mst f their time near the rbt and its speaker. During the first week, finches living with a RbFinch whse sng was in sync with its beak mtins spent 27 percent f their time near the rbt. Thse caged with a rbt playing sngs ut f syne nly spent 5 percent f their time near the setup during the first week. Finches that heard nly the audi withut RbFinch r female birds spent even less time arund the sund surce. Yung finches partnered with RbFinches sang less while the sngs played. This was especially true when the rbts’ beaks mved in sync with the sngs. Thse paired with a female als sang less while hearing sngs. The yung finches seemed t pay clse attentin t the rbts’ mvements during training sessins.
Simn hpes researchers will adapt this apprach t building rbts f ther species, t.
