Practical and Ethical Issues in Big Data and Machine Learning Forecasts of Zambian Community Forestry Engagement

Conservation Letters, Volume 19, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
ABSTRACT Approaches integrating geospatial “big data” and machine learning will likely be increasingly used to predict conservation‐related human behavior, such as patterns of local engagement, in socioecological systems. Yet, few studies evaluate both the technical and ethical aspects of such applications.

A model of teneral dehydration in Glossina [PDF]

Acta Tropica, 2014
The results of a long-established investigation into teneral transpiration are used as a rudimentary data set. These data are not complete in that all are at 25 $^\circ\mathrm{C}$ and the temperature-dependence cannot, therefore be resolved. An allowance is, nonetheless, made for the outstanding temperature-dependent data.

Gonadulin and Insulin‐Like Growth Factor Involved in Rhipicephalus microplus Reproduction

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 3, Page 285-295, March 2026.
Insulin‐like growth factor (IGF2) in ovaries of Rhipicephalus microplus partially engorged females. Ovaries from females at different feeding stages were used to detect IGF2. ABSTRACT Gonadulin and insulin‐like growth factor (IGF) are neuropeptides synthesized by the central nervous system (CNS) of arthropods.

Advantages and Limitations of Commercially Available Electrocuting Grids for Studying Mosquito Behaviour. [PDF]

, 2013
Mosquito feeding behaviour plays a major role in determining malaria transmission intensity and the impact of specific prevention measures. Human Landing Catch (HLC) is currently the only method that can directly and consistently measure the biting rates
