The European honey buzzard (Pernis apivorus) as an ally for the control of the invasive yellow‐legged hornet (Vespa velutina nigrithorax)

Pest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 2237-2247, April 2025.
The predatory effect of the honey‐buzzard affects the reproductive performance of Asian‐hornet colonies, decreasing the density of workers over distance and time. The foraging distances of the honey‐buzzard concentrates within the first 2000 m from nest, which supports the results observed.

The continuing significance of chiral agrochemicals

Pest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 1697-1716, April 2025.
In the time frame 2018–2023, around 43% of the 35 chiral agrochemicals introduced to the market (herbicides, fungicides, insecticides, acaricides, and nematicides) contain one or more stereogenic centers in the molecule, and almost 69% of them have been marketed as racemic mixtures of enantiomers or stereoisomers.

Direct measurement of bidirectional turbulent fluxes of atmospheric cluster ions

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
First direct eddy covariance measurements of vertical turbulent fluxes of atmospheric cluster ions are presented. The net turbulent flux was mostly positive for negative cluster ions (net emission of negative ions) and mostly negative for positive cluster ions (net deposition of positive ions).

Why Do They Do What They Do? A Model That Describes and Connects the Drivers of Learning Assistant Facilitation Practices

Science Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Learning assistants (LAs) help implement evidence‐based teaching in undergraduate active‐learning courses and support student learning through their facilitation. Here, we present a drivers‐of‐LA‐action model with empirical evidence that connects across the macro level of LA‐supported course design and the micro level of LA‐student ...

Expanding Possibilities for the Use of Writing Genres in Early Elementary Science: Investigating First‐Graders’ Multimodal Sequential Explanations

Science Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the outcomes of the implementation of a first grade unit incorporating multiple modes of representation and genre‐based pedagogy to support writing instruction in the genre of sequential explanations. At the end of a 6‐day unit investigating the structure and functions of carnivorous plants, 47 first graders completed a

The Measurement‐Impact Gap: A Bibliometric Diagnosis of Development Finance Institutions and SDG Research

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The role of Development Finance Institutions (DFIs) in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) is a topic of growing scholarly importance. While existing literature has mapped the thematic scope of this field, a critical diagnosis of its intellectual structure and inherent biases is missing.
