Periglacial Vegetation‐Banked Terraces: A Global Survey

open access: yesPermafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Periglacial vegetation‐banked terraces (VBTs) are roughly parallel, step‐like landforms with bare treads and vegetated risers, where tread length (across‐slope) markedly exceeds tread width (downslope). Many follow the contour, but others dip off‐contour at angles of up to 40°.

Understanding Pollination in Urban Food Production: The Importance of Data Validation and Participant Feedback for Citizen Science Project Design

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Urban agriculture depends on insect pollination, but knowledge gaps persist due to difficulties accessing diverse growing spaces. We developed a citizen science approach for monitoring insect visits to crops and compared grower‐collected data to that of a trained researcher while also gathering participant feedback.

Silicon fertilization in maize increases attractiveness of nocturnal herbivore‐induced plant volatiles to Spodoptera frugiperda natural enemies

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Silicon (Si) fertilization enhances the attractiveness of plant volatiles emitted by fall armyworm‐infested maize plant to the predatory earwig Doru luteipes by triggering the emission of the terpene neryl acetate. Abstract BACKGROUND Silicon (Si) fertilization has been well‐documented to enhance plant resistance against insect pests by increasing the ...

How sensitive are Sahelian mesoscale convective systems to cold‐pool suppression?

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Cold pools are a ubiquitous feature of mesoscale convective systems (MCSs) with important upscale impacts on West African climate, but their role in the maintenance of tropical MCSs remains debated. Using a 40‐day model with explicit convection and no rainfall evaporation, we show that cold pools do not play a primary role in Sahel MCS development or ...

Comparative analysis of ERA5 and Raman lidar‐derived moisture profiles in the framework of the WaLiNeAs field campaigns

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
In this paper, we compare atmospheric water vapour data acquired with lidars during the WaLiNeAs programme with data from the ECMWF ERA5 reanalysis. The WaLiNeAs field measurement campaigns took place in autumn/winter 2022/2023 over the French Mediterranean basin and in summer 2023 near Toulouse.
