IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2019 Abstract The current agrometereological monitoring of the Campania Region is both inadequate for its users and insufficient to support the simulation of pest risk models. This work describes a cyber-physical system which has been designed to overcome these limitations, with the objective of (i) automate all the tasks involved in climatic

Is ground cover vegetation an effective biological control enhancement strategy against olive pests? [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Ground cover vegetation is often added or allowed to generate to promote conservation biological control, especially in perennial crops. Nevertheless, there is inconsistent evidence of its effectiveness, with studies reporting positive, nil or negative ...

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.Abstract Our general interest is in global trade loss from livestock pathogens, specifically exports. We adopt a causal inference approach that considers animal disease outbreaks over time as non‐staggered binary treatments with the potential for switching in (infection) and out of treatment (recovery) within the sample period. The outcome evolution of

High‐elevation endemic plants predicted to lose habitat from changing climate in Washington State
American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.Abstract Premise High‐elevation plants face unique challenges from potential climate change impacts that will likely require upslope migration into increasingly smaller suitable habitat. This situation is particularly acute for endemic species that by definition occupy small geographic ranges.

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.Two fluorinated ethers, commonly used as heat‐transfer fluids, are explored as co‐diluents in localized high‐concentration electrolytes (LHCEs) for lithium metal‐based batteries. The best‐performing ternary diluent blend boosts ion mobility and cuts overvoltages, thereby improving Coulombic efficiency and cycle life at ≥1 mA cm−2 in zero‐excess pouch ...
