In canola production systems in Australia, practices for the use of beneficials (arthropod predators and parasitoids) as part of an Integrated Pest Management (IPM) strategy, have not been widely adopted. We outline how canola growers and their advisors can be supported with incremental steps, from passive to active management, to help shift them from ...

Light‐emitting diode (LED)‐based treatments for enhancing crop production and pest management have primarily focused on continuous treatments. This study, using Tetranychus urticae and Phytoseiulus persimilis, demonstrates that the timing of LED supplementation is crucial for designing integrated pest management strategies that improve both plant ...

Restoring Lateral Connectivity to Anthropogenic Riverscapes: Six Lessons From Stage Zero
ABSTRACT Centuries of river modification, particularly straightening and incision, have severely reduced lateral connectivity between rivers and their floodplains. As a result, Stage 0 riverscapes, characterised by high lateral connectivity (e.g., anastomosing or wetland riverscapes), are now rare in anthropogenic landscapes.

Ground‐based robotic remote sensing for standardized biodiversity monitoring in coastal habitats
Illustrated workflow of the proposed citizen‐to‐robot monitoring pipeline: (i) expert‐validated citizen observations are translated into AI models, (ii) deployed on a ground‐based robotic platform for proximal sensing of coastal dune habitats, (iii) enabling standardized detection of ecological targets (e.g., Pancratium maritimum & Brithys crini), and (
