Effect of spatial and temporal crop diversification at the landscape scale on biocontrol and pests in agricultural fields

open access: yes, 2019
L’uniformisation du schéma agricole a eu pour conséquence une perte significative de la biodiversité des insectes utiles en agriculture. La diversification des plantes a de nombreux avantages agronomiques, notamment celui d’augmenter la présence d’ennemis naturels au champ en leur fournissant des sources diversifiées de nourriture.

Identifying knowledge barriers to agroforestry adoption and co‐designing solutions to them

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Compared to monocultures, agroforestry can promote biodiversity, ecosystem functioning and climate resilience, whilst maintaining or enhancing production and profits. Despite this, uptake in temperate regions remains low. Knowledge gaps amongst land managers are a primary barrier to uptake, but little is known about which aspects of ...

Using a social‐ecological macrosystems framework to understand how human activities alter ecological synchrony

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Different aspects of ecological systems, biotic or abiotic, often fluctuate in coordinated patterns over space and time. Such high concordance between ecological processes is often referred to as ecological synchrony. Human activities, including and beyond climate change, have the potential to alter ecological synchrony by disrupting or ...
