The influence of the atmospheric boundary layer on nocturnal layers of noctuids and other moths migrating over southern Britain [PDF]

, 2006
Insects migrating at high altitude over southern Britain have been continuously monitored by automatically-operating, vertical-looking radars over a period of several years.

Co‐Delivery of Multiple Toll‐Like Receptor Agonists and Avian Influenza Hemagglutinin on Protein Nanoparticles Enhances Vaccine Immunogenicity and Efficacy

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This research highlights a novel application of protein nanoparticles to effectively modulate the strength, breadth, and bias of an immune response against influenza virus. Nanoparticles precisely co‐delivering antigen (H5) and multiple adjuvants (CpG and FliCc) present a way to improve and direct prophylactic immune responses which can be applicable ...

Does agroecosystem management mitigate historic climate impacts on dryland winter wheat yields?

Agronomy Journal, Volume 114, Issue 6, Page 3515-3530, November/December 2022., 2022
Abstract Global studies that quantify climate effects on crop yields using top‐down spatial frameworks are invaluable for assessing generalized effects on world food supplies, yet do not contain the resolution necessary to identify local mediating effects of management. Our objectives were to identify (a) what climate factors have historically affected

Dynamic $β$-VAEs for quantifying biodiversity by clustering optically recorded insect signals [PDF]

arXiv, 2021
While insects are the largest and most diverse group of terrestrial animals, constituting ca. 80% of all known species, they are difficult to study due to their small size and similarity between species. Conventional monitoring techniques depend on time consuming trapping methods and tedious microscope-based work by skilled experts in order to identify

Trophic Transfer of Arsenic from an Aquatic Insect to Terrestrial Insect Predators. [PDF]

, 2013
The movement of energy and nutrients from aquatic to terrestrial ecosystems can be substantial, and emergent aquatic insects can serve as biovectors not only for nutrients, but also for contaminants present in the aquatic environment.

Designing for Degradation: Transient Devices Enabled by (Nano)Cellulose

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Recent progress in transient devices enabled by (nano)cellulosic materials is reviewed. Transiency mechanisms, advantages of nanocelluloses, and a suite of applications are discussed. A circular thinking approach coupled with life cycle assessment is applied to critically revisit the potential, advantages, and challenges of nanocellulose‐enabled ...

Profit‐maximizing potassium fertilizer recommendations for corn and cotton

Agronomy Journal, Volume 114, Issue 6, Page 3358-3376, November/December 2022., 2022
Abstract Whereas K fertilization is necessary to maximize corn (Zea mays L.) and cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) yields in soils with sub‐optimum K availability, maximizing yield is rarely profit‐maximizing. Estimating the tradeoff between yield and fertilizer cost using current soil‐building and/or yield‐maximizing rate recommendations vs.
