Topic Reading-Vol.993-12/30/2014

Dear MEL School’s Topic Readers,
How many penguins can you count today?
There are as many as 50 surveillance cameras in Antarctica to monitor the lives of penguins in Antarctica. And the scientists want you to help count number of penguins in the photos taken by those cameras. Why is it so important to count penguins?
As ice melting on and around Antarctica, the lives and future of penguins are threatened. It is getting more important to monitor and learn how those walking and swimming birds live more precisely to protect them from being endangered. In order to automate the process of counting how many penguins live or move in the monitor, there don’t seem to be any other viable options but to count them by human eyes first.
Enjoy reading and learning how important to count penguins in the photos to save them.
