Ecosystem engineers and functional dominance: when species loss matters for ecosystem function

Oikos, EarlyView.
Understanding when and why species loss affects community function in natural communities remains an open question in ecology. Recent cross‐system analyses have shown that functional dominance is associated with whether species loss matters: in communities dominated by few high‐performing species, lost species contribute little to function.

Modeling the Elastic Recovery of PET Bottles via a Free‐Blowing of Preforms Campaign

Polymer Engineering &Science, EarlyView.
From free‐blown preforms to mechanical properties. ABSTRACT This study aims to quantify the elastic properties induced by biaxial stretching at different temperatures in order to simulate the complete process including the final elastic recovery. The elastic modulus is identified from geometric measurements obtained during free‐blowing experiments. PET

Development and deployment of a risk assessment index as a decision‐support tool for managing whitefly‐transmitted viruses affecting squash

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
A data‐driven framework identified planting date and row cover as dominant drivers of whitefly‐transmitted virus complex (WTVC) risk in squash. Integration into the SquashRx mobile application enables real‐time risk assessment and supports improved decision‐making for integrated pest management.
