Experimental and Modeling Investigation of Seawater Hydrolysis Effects on Aramid Fiber Rupture Behavior

open access: yesJournal of Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Hydrolytic aging in seawater produces markedly different mechanical responses among commercial Aramid fibers. While some fibers exhibit progressive degradation, others maintain stable or even improved tensile behavior. Experimental yarn‐scale testing combined with mathematical degradation modeling and Arrhenius‐based lifetime prediction provides new ...

According to whom? Spousal, household, and plot differences in improved cassava variety adoption in Nigeria

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Agricultural innovations underpin most investments that aim to increase agricultural productivity globally. Improved crop varieties have historically constituted the bulwark of agricultural innovation outputs and are credited with the success of large‐scale interventions such as the Green Revolution. Much research has shown, however, that gender shapes

Sampling for Socially‐Inclusive Adoption Studies (SSAS): A new interdisciplinary sampling method for DNA‐fingerprinting‐based crop varietal adoption studies

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
DNA fingerprinting is becoming the standard measurement procedure in crop adoption studies in the Global South, yet the lack of systematic and intentional sampling regarding which farmer to go to the plot with may bias results from these methods. We introduce a methodological innovation, Sampling for Socially Inclusive Adoption Studies (SSAS), to offer

Grass species and climatic season impact on Rhipicephalus microplus temporal abundance in a tropical region

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
The interaction between grass species and climatic season shapes the population dynamics of the cattle tick, Rhipicephalus microplus. This information highlights the potential of forage species to influence off‐host tick dynamics. Additionally, minimum temperature and minimum relative humidity were the most influential microclimatic predictors of ...

Predator egg‐induced non‐consumptive effects suppress spider mite survival and reproductive performance

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Increasing predation intensity of predatory mite significantly reduced spider mite fitness in terms of shorter mother longevity, lower mother fecundity, longer offspring development, lower offspring survival, and lower population growth. Abstract BACKGROUND Predators suppress pest populations not only through direct consumption but also via non ...
