Modeling Waterfowl Damage to Crops Surrounding the Quill lakes in Saskatchewan
Human-Wildlife Interactions, 2017 Waterfowl using the Central Flyway congregate on staging lakes before fall migration. The Quill lakes area of Saskatchewan Province, Canada, contains many staging lakes, which are surrounded by annual cropland.

Estimation of flood-damaged cropland area using a convolutional neural network
Environmental Research Letters, 2021 Flood damage to croplands poses a significant threat to global food security. Effective disaster management to cope with future climate change, especially extreme precipitation, requires a robust framework to estimate such damage.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.An unexpected alternative interaction site for ethyl viologen was identified in formate dehydrogenase 1 from Methylorubrum extorquens. Combined mutagenesis, kinetic analysis, and docking revealed that aromatic residues near an iron–sulfur cluster enable flavin mononucleotide‐independent electron transfer, offering a framework for engineering improved ...

Human-Wildlife Interactions, 2020 Human–wildlife conflicts occur when wildlife has an adverse effect on human activities (e.g., predation of livestock, crop raiding). These conflicts are increasing, particularly in areas surrounding natural protected areas, where villagers engage in ...

Crop Damage by Primates: Quantifying the Key Parameters of Crop-Raiding Events
PLoS ONE, 2012 Human-wildlife conflict often arises from crop-raiding, and insights regarding which aspects of raiding events determine crop loss are essential when developing and evaluating deterrents. However, because accounts of crop-raiding behaviour are frequently indirect, these parameters are rarely quantified or explicitly linked to crop damage.

Electron transfer between complexes III and IV in S. cerevisiae mitochondrial membranes
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation in S. cerevisiae mitoplasts is limited by complex IV catalytic capacity, rather than two‐dimensional cytochrome c diffusion. At physiological cytochrome c : supercomplex ratios at salinity equivalent to that of 20 mm monovalent salt, activity is maximized, indicating that this low ionic strength accurately mimics

Ozone Damages to Italian Crops: Environmental Constraints
Italian Journal of Agronomy, 2008 The main environmental features of Italian cropping systems are described with particular emphasis on their effects on crop responses to ozone pollution. High ozone levels have been recorded all over Italy and daily patterns show, at nighttimes, strong decreases in plain areas, while ozone levels remain high in hilly areas.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Inositol pyrophosphates are energy‐rich signaling molecules that perform critical functions in cells. Three different families of phosphatases hydrolyze the β phosphate of the inositol pyrophosphate molecules: two have narrow specificities and one is promiscuous.

Estimation of deer damage to soybean production in eastern Mississippi: Perception versus reality
Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2017 Soybean (Glycine max) is one of Mississippi's most profitable agricultural crops. White‐tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) consume soybeans each year because of the palatability and nutritional content of the plant and may cause economic damage to ...
