High relative humidity pre-harvest reduces post-harvest proliferation of Salmonella in tomatoes [PDF]

open access: yesFood Microbiology, 2017
Outbreaks of human illness caused by enteric pathogens such as Salmonella are increasingly linked to the consumption of fruits and vegetables. Knowledge on the factors affecting Salmonella proliferation on fresh produce therefore becomes increasingly important to safeguard public health.

Monitoring and Controlling System to Artificial Habitat of Antlion (Myrmeleon Sp.) based Wireless Sensor Network

open access: yesJurnal Jaringan Telekomunikasi, 2023
Antlion habitat that breeders create currently does not use a system that can protect the habitat from changes in temperature and humidity. In addition, when they are about to be sold, breeders filter and sort the antlion one by one.

Harvester Ant Colony Variation in Foraging Activity and Response to Humidity [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Collective behavior is produced by interactions among individuals. Differences among groups in individual response to interactions can lead to ecologically important variation among groups in collective behavior. Here we examine variation among colonies in the foraging behavior of the harvester ant, Pogonomyrmex barbatus.

Viability of Pentadesma in reduced habitat ecosystems within two climatic regions with fruit harvesting

open access: yesJournal of Biological Dynamics, 2022
Habitat loss and harvesting of non-timber forest products (NTFPs) significantly affect the population dynamics. In this paper, we propose a general mathematical modelling approach incorporating the impact of habitat size reduction and non-lethal ...

Biopolymer-Based Hydrogels for Harvesting Water from Humid Air: A Review

open access: yesSustainability, 2023
Despite the shrinkage of water availability worldwide, the water demand has been climbing due to the rapidly increasing human population and the impacts of numerous hydroclimatic factors. To feed the growing population and meet with the exigent need for freshwater, new water sources must be identified and utilized.
