Movement Patterns of Carabid Beetles Between Heterogenous Crop and Noncrop Habitats [PDF]
Habitats adjacent to crop fields can increase natural enemy populations by providing additional food, shelter and overwintering sites. While many studies have focused on the role of non-crop borders for supporting natural enemies, here we investigate the
