Mortality in an invasive ant does not scale linearly with fipronil exposure

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Increasing fipronil concentration did not linearly increase yellow crazy ant mortality when introduced via horizontal transfer; high doses may limit food sharing. Queen mortality was low, and surviving workers were averse to feeding. Abstract Background Controlling eusocial invasive and other pestiferous insects is difficult.

ZebraTrack: An Open-Source Object Detection Algorithm to Detect and Track Larval Zebrafish Motor Touch Responses

Abstract Motivation Zebrafish ( Danio rerio ) are a model organism used for the study of vertebrate development, disease and drug discovery. Two-day old larval zebrafish exhibit burst swimming behaviour that can be elicited by a light touch

Assessing pest control treatments from phenology models and field data

Pest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 1851-1859, April 2025.
Theoretical effect of two larvicide sprays, two delayed larvicide sprays that follow an oil treatment, mating disruption, and mating disruption plus four virus sprays on codling moth larva (brown for treated versus pink for untreated) and adult (dark green for treated versus light green for untreated) phenology.

Restoring Lateral Connectivity to Anthropogenic Riverscapes: Six Lessons From Stage Zero

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Centuries of river modification, particularly straightening and incision, have severely reduced lateral connectivity between rivers and their floodplains. As a result, Stage 0 riverscapes, characterised by high lateral connectivity (e.g., anastomosing or wetland riverscapes), are now rare in anthropogenic landscapes.

Evaluating land–sea linkages using land cover change and coral reef monitoring data: A case study from northeastern Puerto Rico

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Land cover change that leads to increased nutrient and sediment runoff is an important driver of change in coral reef ecosystems. In this study, we combined satellite remote sensing and field monitoring to assess concomitant changes in watershed land cover and coral cover in northeastern Puerto Rico in 2000–2015.

Examining the Role of Economic Complexity and Climate Readiness in the Climate‐Fishing Nexus

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper investigates the climate‐fisheries association in Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) nations from 1999 to 2022. A key objective is to explore the role of both the economic complexity index (ECI) and the climate readiness factor (READ) in the climate‐fishing nexus.
