ADDITIVE VERSUS PROPORTIONAL PEST DAMAGE FUNCTIONS: WHY ECOLOGY MATTERS [PDF]
Economic analyses of pests typically assume damage is either additively separable from pest free yield or proportional to it. This paper describes the ecological assumptions required for additive and proportional damage functions to demonstrate that both

Advanced Science, EarlyView.PtRuFeCoNi HEA NWs are synthesized by adjusting the metal composition and surface‐engineered with PDA to create HEA NWs@PDA nanozymes with superior catalytic activities and photothermal properties. DFT calculations confirm that self‐polymerized PDA surface engineering moderately lowers the d‐band center of the HEAs, optimizes the surface charge ...
