Complete convergence theorem for a two-level contact process [PDF]
ALEA, Lat. Am. J. Probab. Math. Stat. 19, 943-955 (2022), 2019 We study a two-level contact process. We think of fleas living on a species of animals. The animals are a supercritical contact process in $\mathbb{Z}^d$. The contact process acts as the random environment for the fleas. The fleas do not affect the animals, give birth at rate $\mu$ when they are living on a host animal, and die at rate $\delta$ when ...

Flea Beetle Control in Canola, 1995 [PDF]
Arthropod Management Tests, 1996 Abstract Plots were established at the Washington State University Animal Science Farm in Pullman, WA. Treated and untreated seed were planted on 19 May with a small plot drill at a seeding rate of 6 lb/acre in 7 rows, 6 inches apart. The late seeding date insured an even distribution of flea beetle adults.
