Modelling response of Delottococcus aberiae (De lotto) male captures to pheromone emission rates. [PDF]

Pest Manag Sci
Using increasing doses of the sex pheromone of D. aberiae, our model revealed that the emission levels to maximize the captures of males ranges from 0.4 to 40 μg/day. Abstract BACKGROUND An invasive mealybug from South Africa identified as Delottococcus aberiae (De Lotto) (Hemiptera: Pseudococcidae) is causing severe distortions and fruit size ...

Unveiling the Evolutionary History of European Vipers and Their Venoms From a Multi-Omic Approach. [PDF]

Mol Ecol
ABSTRACT Snake genomes attract significant attention from multiple disciplines, including medicine, drug bioprospection, and evolutionary biology. However, genomic research within the Viperidae family has mostly focused on the subfamily Crotalinae, while the true vipers (Viperinae) have largely been overlooked.

The Database of European Forest Insect and Disease Disturbances: DEFID2

Global Change Biology, Volume 29, Issue 21, Page 6040-6065, November 2023., 2023
Insect and disease disturbances appear on the rise in European forests and further climate change may make them more widespread and intense still. Despite the need to better monitor and understand insect and disease disturbances, geospatial data on them are scattered.

Citizen policy entrepreneurship in UK local government climate emergency declarations

Review of Policy Research, Volume 40, Issue 6, Page 950-971, November 2023., 2023
Abstract Policy entrepreneurship theory seeks to explain how actors, institutions, actions and interactions influence policy makers and policy outcomes; however, the role of citizens in this process remains largely unarticulated. Adopting a conception of policy entrepreneurship as a (distributed) pattern of agency rather than the actions of an ...

Fighting in a warming world: The emergence of climatic considerations in the conduct of hostilities under international humanitarian law

Review of European, Comparative &International Environmental Law, Volume 35, Issue 1, Page 198-209, April 2026.
Abstract This article seeks to assess the extent to which climatic considerations may be integrated into international humanitarian law (IHL). With evidence of significant greenhouse gas emissions from military actions in conflicts such as Gaza and Ukraine, the article highlights the climate impacts of armed conflict, showing how military activities ...

The making of novel ecosystems: A process‐based framework for measurement, analysis and application

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 3, Page 683-704, March 2026.
Abstract Ecological novelty is emerging rapidly due to global change drivers such as climate shifts, species introductions, defaunation, and land‐use transformation. These changes challenge how we assess, understand and manage ecosystems in the Anthropocene.

Water‐saving strategies in rice farming entail cascading effects in prey–predator interactions across ecosystem boundaries

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 62, Issue 9, Page 2273-2282, September 2025.
These results show that introducing multiple drainage periods in rice fields (i.e. AWD) indirectly hampers terrestrial spider reproduction through limiting the emergence of potential preys from the aquatic to terrestrial boundaries. MSD resulted in a more conciliatory strategy as it largely reduces methane emissions and does not affect predator–prey ...
