Assessment of a Baited Remote Underwater Video Method to Evaluate American Lobster (Homarus americanus) Response to Baits in Nature

Fisheries Management and Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 2, Page 339-354, April 2026.
ABSTRACT The American Lobster (Homarus americanus) is the target of an extensive fishery in the Northwest Atlantic, yet there is no systematic method for evaluating relative performance of baits for the fishery. We used Baited Remote Underwater Video (BRUV) to assess lobster attraction to commercial baits versus natural prey.

Edible Pneumatic Battery for Sustained and Repeated Robot Actuation

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 15, 13 March 2026.
This work presents an edible energy source and valve system to power soft, pneumatically driven edible robots. A chemical reaction between sodium bicarbonate and citric acid generates carbon dioxide gas, and a pressure‐triggered edible valve enables self‐repetitive motion of the edible actuator.

Beyond Labels: Exploring Consumer Preferences for Plant‐Based Meat Labeling Policies

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, Volume 48, Issue 1, Page 123-136, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Whether meat‐related terms should be permitted on the labels of plant‐based meat alternatives is hotly debated. Utilizing survey data featuring a discrete choice experiment, we examine consumer responses to plant‐based meat alternatives under three labeling scenarios: no restrictions; a ban on meat‐related terms; and a requirement for a ...

Potential for the American toad (Anaxyrus americanus) to contribute to biological control in a vegetable agroecosystem

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract The American toad (Anaxyrus americanus) is a native insectivorous amphibian common in agricultural fields in eastern North America. Past research on this and related species suggests potential for positive or negative effects on pest populations, depending on the prevalence of intraguild predation.

An Evaluation of the Distance at Which Direct Ecological Effects of Released Pheasants Extend Beyond Their Release Sites

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
In the UK, large numbers of pheasants are released into woodlands for recreational hunting, potentially impacting local ecosystems. A survey across 20 sites in Ancient Semi‐Natural Woodlands found that negative effects—such as fewer seedlings, lower plant richness and reduced decayed wood—were mostly confined within 500 m of release pens. Soil nutrient
