Sub-debris melt rates on southern Inylchek Glacier, central Tian Shan [PDF]

, 2008
Melt rates of glacier surfaces are strongly influenced by the existence of a debris cover. Dependent on thickness and other physical parameters the debris layer can enhance or reduce ablation as compared to bare ice conditions.

Host plant resistance promotes a secondary pest population

Ecosphere, 2020
Insecticides can cause secondary pest outbreaks that weaken the benefit of chemical pest control. These detrimental nontarget effects motivate the use of alternative pest management strategies such as host plant resistance and intercropping.
