Refuge by day, forage by night: Diel activity of vine weevil as characterised by smart monitoring

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Vine weevil activity was monitored using a Smart trap, which recorded diel refuge‐seeking behaviour. Increasing light intensity triggered refuge seeking behaviour, while lower light intensity induced forage seeking activity. Understanding vine weevil diel activity can enhance early detection, which can improve the effectiveness of integrated pest ...

Evaluating the efficacy of tagging adhesives for insect tracking

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Two‐part epoxy resin delivered the strongest RFID tag adhesion on carabid beetles, exceeding polyvinyl acetate, cosmetic latex and cyanoacrylate adhesives. Adhesive performance was consistent across Harpalus, Leistus and Poecilus; species effects were non‐significant, supporting a broadly applicable protocol for carabid RFID tagging studies.

Allergic Sensitization to Inhalant Allergens in the Upper Respiratory Tract—the B Cell Side

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Allergic diseases are on the rise worldwide, driven by respiratory epithelial barrier dysfunction that promotes sensitization to inhalant allergens such as pollen, dust mites, pet dander, and fungal spores. These antigens trigger IgE‐mediated immune responses that lead to diseases such as allergic rhinitis (AR) and asthma.

Resilience Processes Facilitating the Transition to Adulthood Among At‐Risk Young Adult Arabs in Israel

open access: yesChild &Family Social Work, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Resilience has been acknowledged as an important aspect of a holistic understanding of emerging adults who face structural and cultural challenges. As such, it serves as a framework for empirical research to examine the processes through which minoritized young adults navigate and better adapt to intersectional stressors across sociopolitical,

Evaluating synthetic substitutes to reduce illegal harvesting and support species recovery

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Providing synthetic substitutes is a widely promoted strategy to shift consumer demand away from wildlife products derived from threatened species. Yet, there is little evidence on whether product substitution prevents illegal or unsustainable harvesting and contributes to the recovery of threatened populations.

Application of capture-mark-recapture methods and hierarchical models for the conservation and monitoring of amphibians and reptiles

open access: yes
The global decline of amphibians and reptiles continues unabated, with a significant portion of species facing extinction due to different factors such as habitat loss, pollution, and spreading of pathogens. Additionally, limited funding for conservation efforts exacerbates the challenge of protecting biodiversity.
