Socioecological disparities in New Orleans following Hurricane Katrina

Ecosphere, Volume 8, Issue 9, September 2017., 2017
Abstract Despite growing interest in urban resilience, remarkably little is known about vegetation dynamics in the aftermath of disasters. In this study, we examined the composition and structure of plant communities across New Orleans (Louisiana, USA) following catastrophic flooding triggered by levee failures during Hurricane Katrina in 2005 ...

Investigating weather variables driving boxwood blight epidemics: Insights from field trials with Buxus sempervirens ‘Suffruticosa’ in northern Germany between 2006 and 2020

Plant Pathology, Volume 73, Issue 8, Page 2043-2055, October 2024.
Multiyear field trials show that mean rainfall per rainy day, daily minimum temperatures and daily minimum relative humidity have a significant positive effect on boxwood blight severity. Abstract Boxwood blight is a highly invasive disease, but studies on host–pathogen–environment interactions are rare because the initial research emphasis has been on
