Effects of fire on ground‐dwelling arthropods in a shrub‐dominated grassland
Ecology and Evolution, 2021 Arthropods are abundant and diverse animals in many terrestrial food webs. In western Oklahoma, some shrublands are interspersed with discrete, dense thickets of tall, woody vegetation, known as mottes.

Modeling, Simulation and Implementation of All Terrain Adaptive Five DOF Robot
Sensors, 2022 The ability of an off-road robot to traverse obstacles determines whether the robot can complete complex environmental tasks. In order to improve the off-road ability of off-road robots, this paper proposes a new design idea, in which four hub motors are

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Host‐specific compatibility between RNF138‐like proteins and flavivirus NS5 determines NS5 stability. Mammalian RNF138 but not arthropod homologs recognizes and induces conserved NS5/RdRp K48‐linked ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation, thereby restricting viral replication. Ectopic RNF138 in mice attenuates TBEV‐induced pathogenesis. (Created in

Comparative microbiomes of ticks collected from a black rhino and its surrounding environment
International Journal for Parasitology: Parasites and Wildlife, 2019 ‘Eliska,’ an endangered black rhino (Diceros bicornis), died suddenly in Mkomazi National Park in Tanzania in 2016. Three Amblyomma gemma ticks were collected from Eliska's body, and four ticks were collected from the surrounding field.

Evolution of Physical Intelligence Across Scales
Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.By following the evolution of physical intelligence across scales, this article shows how intelligence arises from materials, structures, physical interactions, and collectives. It establishes physical intelligence as the evolutionary foundation upon which embodied intelligence is built.

Hibernation of predatory arthropods in semi-natural habitats.
, 2009 Non-crop habitats provide important resources for natural enemies. Many natural enemies hibernate in non-crop habitats, from which they may colonise arable fields in the spring.

The impact of dimethoate on the spatial distribution of beneficial arthropods in winter wheat
, 2000 The within-field spatial distribution of beneficial arthropods was assessed using two-dimensional grids of pitfall traps and suction sampling across two winter wheat fields of 4 and 16 ha, before and after an application of dimethoate.
