Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.Yeasts that specialize in flower nectar play an important role in pollination ecology. Metschnikowia reukaufii and Metschnikowia koreensis were the most prevalent nectar yeasts found in our field sites. Bee pollinators exhibited different behavioural responses to nectar yeasts in field experiments. Bees visited more flowers with M.

Influence of elevation, climate, snowmelt and floral abundance on body size of solitary bees
Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.We measured body size in bee species from a 10‐year specimen collection from Colorado sub‐alpine meadows (2450–3450 m) and tested effects of elevation and annual snowmelt, climate and floral abundance. 2 out of 4 bee species collected across a broad elevation range showed a decline in body size with higher elevations; the other two showed no effect ...

Difference and the Liberation of Sufficient Reason
European Journal of Philosophy, EarlyView.Abstract The Principle of Sufficient Reason (PSR) holds that every event and entity can be explained by a sufficient reason or cause. Philosophers have long struggled with the question of the PSR's compatibility with freedom, for if what occurs or exists follows necessarily from its sufficient reason then it seems it could not have been otherwise ...

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.Bees are integral pollinators commonly found in and supported by urban green spaces; however, their eco‐evolutionary response to urbanisation varies interspecifically. While several studies have explored the population and landscape genetics of bees in response to urbanisation, few have examined solitary or specialist species which may be more ...

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.Multispecies occupancy models indicated that the occurrence of bumble bees was associated with local floral resources as well as the landscape surrounding a site within 1.6 km. Estimated species richness was greater at sites with more forest cover and lower at sites with more corn and soybean agriculture in the surrounding landscape.

Roadside pollinator populations and the negative impact of intensive roadside vegetation maintenance
Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.Less intensively managed roadsides had higher numbers of flower flies and bees; bee diversity was also higher in those roadsides. Community composition was similar across both management types, indicating that roadsides support a fairly homogeneous pollinator community, regardless of management.

Connectivity and Selective Rural Migration
International Economic Review, EarlyView.ABSTRACT How does infrastructure shape rural development? Using household panel data from a nationally representative sample of Chinese villages, matched to high‐resolution highway maps, we find that road expansion between 2000 and 2015 operates mainly through reallocation, with less productive farmers scaling down or exiting and more productive ...

International Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.Abstract Despite increasing demands for resilient and sustainable supply chains, inventory management often relies on outdated single‐criterion analyses. While multi‐criteria ABC (MCABC) analyses provide a theoretically mature assessment of resilience‐sustainability‐benefit trade‐offs in inventory, their adoption remains limited due to fragmented ...
