Management practices, local habitat features, and landcover associated with carabid and scarab beetle occupancy and abundance in restored Black Belt grasslands

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Grassland restoration and conservation is necessary to retain ecosystem services and biodiversity. Insects are ecologically important yet often not the focus of restoration. Beetles in the family Carabidae (carabids) are frequently studied after restoration, but the effects of grassland restoration on beetles in the family Scarabaeidae (scarabs) have ...

A Scoping Review of Nudges for Enhancing Agricultural Policy

open access: yesApplied Economic Perspectives and Policy, Volume 48, Issue 1, Page 137-159, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Following PRISMA guidelines, we conduct a scoping review on 18 empirical studies on nudging interventions for farmers in Europe and the USA. The evidence on the effectiveness of nudges is mixed. Some studies demonstrate positive outcomes, particularly when nudges are combined with other interventions; others report no effect or negative ...

Dollars for Drops: Abatement Cost of Water for Irrigation in the Colorado River Basin

open access: yesApplied Economic Perspectives and Policy, Volume 48, Issue 1, Page 278-293, March 2026.
ABSTRACT The Colorado River is a lifeline for more than 40 million people in the western United States. However, with climate change diminishing snowpacks in the Rocky Mountains and increasing demands from agriculture and urban areas, the river's flow has become insufficient to meet all the competing needs.
