Artificial light at night affects plant–herbivore interactions
Journal of Applied Ecology, 2022 Abstract Artificial light at night (ALAN) affects species' physiology and behaviour, and the interactions between species. Despite the importance of plants as primary producers, it remains poorly understood whether and how effects of ALAN on plants cascade through the food web.

Photometric Variability of the T2.5 Brown Dwarf SIMP J013656.5+093347; Evidence for Evolving Weather Patterns [PDF]
, 2009 We report the discovery of a photometric variability in the bright T2.5 brown dwarf SIMP J013656.5+093347. Continuous J-band photometry has been obtained for several hours on four different nights.

Methods for Assessment and Monitoring of Light Pollution around Ecologically Sensitive Sites
Journal of Imaging, 2019 Since the introduction of electric lighting over a century ago, and particularly in the decades following the Second World War, indications of artificial light on the nighttime Earth as seen from Earth orbit have increased at a rate exceeding that of ...

Artificial light and nocturnal activity in gammarids [PDF]
, 2014 Artificial light is gaining attention as a potential stressor to aquatic ecosystems. Artificial lights located near streams increase light levels experienced by stream invertebrates and we hypothesized light would depress night drift rates.

, 2018 Lighting in cities at night is a significant issue that maybe has not been discussed enough in developing countries. This issue should be considered from various aspects as an aesthetic issue, a low-cost art, or as a booster of safety or even identification and it also could be exploited as a landmark in some places, for example, more lighting can ...

Light at night as an environmental endocrine disruptor [PDF]
Physiology & Behavior, 2018 Environmental endocrine disruptors (EEDs) are often consequences of human activity; however, the effects of EEDs are not limited to humans. A primary focus over the past ∼30years has been on chemical EEDs, but the repercussions of non-chemical EEDs, such as artificial light at night (LAN), are of increasing interest.
