Investigating Spatial‐Temporal Optical Emission Spectroscopy of Unstable Positive Leaders in Long Sparks Under Atmospheric Pressure

open access: yesHigh Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study explores exciting state species and reaction pathways in positive leaders to better understand the breakdown mechanisms of long air gap discharges and natural lightning. Emission spectra from an unstable positive leader in a 1 m rod‐plate air gap under switching impulse voltages were observed, spanning 300–800 nm.

Bushfire management, prescribed burning, and a right to fire?

open access: yesGeographical Research, EarlyView.
Bushfire control is a public policy priority in an era of climate change. Prescribed burning is one management solution. Prescribed burning policies prioritise human lives and avoidance of property losses. However, some species require fire to survive. We find the ‘right to fire’ is not prioritised in prescribed burning policy.

Polarization vision and the physiological basis for trichromatic vision in Philaenus spumarius: Understanding host‐seeking behaviour in insect vectors for Xylella fastidiosa control

open access: yesAnnals of Applied Biology, EarlyView.
We investigated the role of vision in host‐seeking behaviour by Philaenus spumarius, the main European vector of Xylella fastidiosa, through an integrated anatomical, optical, physiological, and behavioural study. Our data highlight that the spittlebug uses visual cues, including polarized light, which may aid in detecting the polarized reflections ...
