Spatial re-establishment dynamics of local populations of vectors of Chagas disease. [PDF]
Prevention of Chagas disease depends mainly on control of the insect vectors that transmit infection. Unfortunately, the vectors have been resurgent in some areas. It is important to understand the dynamics of reinfestation where it occurs.

Impact of site-specific weed management on herbicide savings and winter wheat yield
An aggregated distribution pattern of weed populations provides opportunity to reduce the herbicide application if site-specific weed management is adopted.

Impact of site-specific weed management in winter crops on weed populations
This work is focused on evaluating the effects of site-specific weed management (SSWM) on weed populations over a 4-year period. SSWM was used on a 3.07 ha experimental field during 2011-2014 in a rotation of winter wheat and winter oilseed rape.

Effect of site-specific weed management in winter crops on yield and weed populations
Site-specific weed management (SSWM) methods allow spatially variable treatment of weed populations according to actual weed abundance, thus offering the opportunity for herbicide savings.

The dark ventral patch: A bimodal flexible trait related to male competition in red deer.
Sexual signals play a central role in male-male competition in polygynous species. In red deer (Cervus elaphus), male's ventral area become dark during the rutting season due to urine spraying behaviour and retains many chemical compounds potentially ...

Controlling non-native plant invasions that reduce the quality of preferred wetland habitats is a challenge for many wetland managers. Herbicides may be used to control invasions, but it may be difficult to find effective application methods depending on

Cropping fields often have well-defined poor-performing patches due to spatial and temporal variability. In an attempt to increase crop performance on poor patches, spatially selective field operations may be performed by agricultural robotics to apply ...

The Relationship Between Patch Spraying Cost and Target Weed Distribution [PDF]
Carroll and Holden (2005) defined a method for quantifying weed distributions using distance transform analysis as a first-step in relating the distribution of weeds in a field to the type and cost of equipment used to spray the field (Carroll and Holden, 2009).
