Overwintering fires in boreal forests [PDF]
Nature, 2021 Forest fires are usually viewed within the context of a single fire season, in which weather conditions and fuel supply can combine to create conditions favourable for fire ignition-usually by lightning or human activity-and spread1-3. But some fires exhibit 'overwintering' behaviour, in which they smoulder through the non-fire season and flare up in ...

Climate warming promotes pesticide resistance through expanding overwintering range of a global pest
Nature Communications, 2021 Climate change has the potential to change the distribution of pests globally and their resistance to pesticides, thereby threatening global food security in the 21st century.

Pest population dynamics are related to a continental overwintering gradient
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2022 Significance The expansion of pest ranges due to climate change will threaten global agriculture. Winter soil temperature is known to limit pest persistence at higher latitudes.

Overwintering fires rising in eastern Siberia
Environmental Research Letters, 2022 Overwintering fires are a historically rare phenomenon but may become more prevalent in the warming boreal region. Overwintering fires have been studied to a limited extent in boreal North America; however, their role and contribution to fire regimes in ...

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2021 Significance Freshwater ice is being lost at an accelerating rate with global warming. Yet the ecological implications of shortening ice-covered seasons remain largely unexplored due to a historical lack of freshwater research in winter.

First Evidence of West Nile Virus Overwintering in Mosquitoes in Germany
Viruses, 2021 Mosquitoes collected from mid-December 2020 to early March 2021 from hibernacula in northeastern Germany, a region of West Nile virus (WNV) activity since 2018, were examined for WNV-RNA.

Overwintering Honey Bee Colonies: Effect of Worker Age and Climate on the Hindgut Microbiota
Insects, 2021 Simple Summary The honey bee is managed worldwide for use in pollinating crops and producing honey. Healthy overwintered colonies are paramount to meeting spring agricultural pollination demands, but beekeepers typically report high rates of winter ...

Flexibility of Microcystis Overwintering Strategy in Response to Winter Temperatures
Microorganisms, 2021 Microcystis is one of the most common bloom-forming cyanobacteria in freshwater ecosystems throughout the world. However, the underlying life history mechanism and distinct temporal dynamics (inter- and intra-annual) of Microcystis populations in ...

Overwintering honeybees maintained dynamic and stable intestinal bacteria
Scientific Reports, 2021 Honeybee is an important pollinator for maintaining ecological balance. However, scientist found the bizarre mass death of bees in winter. Meanwhile, some reported that the differences composed of intestinal bacteria between healthy honeybees and CCD ...
