Beyond Temperature: Relative Humidity Systematically Shifts Juvenile Thermal Performance and Projected Population Growth in a Malaria Vector

Ecology Letters, Volume 29, Issue 6, June 2026.
Understanding how ectotherms respond to environmental change requires accounting for multiple interacting climatic factors; yet relative humidity is rarely integrated with temperature in trait‐based performance frameworks. Using laboratory experiments and an analytic population growth model, we show that humidity systematically modifies juvenile life ...

Determinants of Seasonal Elephant Habitat Use in Small and Enclosed Conservation Area: Mwea National Reserve, Kenya

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
This study investigated the drivers of seasonal habitat use by African savanna elephants (Loxodonta africana) in the fenced Mwea National Reserve, using dung‐based surveys and MaxEnt models. Results showed that water and forage availability primarily shaped dry‐season distribution, while boundary effects were more influential in the wet season, with ...

Control of Lantana in Pastures

EDIS, 2012
Lantana is currently one of the top 10 most troublesome weeds in Florida. Although it is still sold as an ornamental, commercial varieties are sterile and considered to be non-invasive. It can quickly invade disturbed sites by producing plant toxins in its roots and stems, which either slow the growth of other plants or totally remove them.
