Transgenerational interactions between pesticide exposure and warming in a vector mosquito

Evolutionary Applications, 2018
While transgenerational plasticity may buffer ectotherms to warming and pesticides separately, it remains unknown how combined exposure to warming and pesticides in the parental generation shapes the vulnerability to these stressors in the offspring.

Uncovering renewable energy policy impact channels on land values, the local farm structure, and farmland heterogeneity

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Germany's Renewable Energy Sources Act (REA), enacted in 2000 and subsequently amended, subsidized national renewable energy production with fixed feed‐in tariffs for renewable energy sources (RE) from wind, solar, and biogas. Empirical studies suggest that the policy was creating windfall effects for landowners and attribute farmland use ...

Pesticides, Preference Heterogeneity and Environmental Taxes [PDF]

, 2007
In this paper we present results from two Choice experiments (CE) designed to take account of the different negative externalities associated with pesticide use in agricultural production. For cereals production the most likely impact of pesticide use is

Per‐ and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) Exposure Profiles and Their Predictors in a Study of US Volunteer Firefighters

American Journal of Industrial Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Firefighters may experience occupational exposure to per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). Volunteer firefighters make up 65% of the US fire service, but their serum PFAS profiles have not been well characterized. This study aims to (1) describe PFAS serum profiles among US volunteer firefighters from 9 states enrolled in ...

The challenges of predicting pesticide exposure of honey bees at landscape level

Scientific Reports, 2017
To evaluate the risks of pesticides for pollinators, we must not only evaluate their toxicity but also understand how pollinators are exposed to these xenobiotics in the field. We focused on this last point and modeled honey bee exposure to pesticides at

Embedding Chemistry and Pharmacy Into Sustainability

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
Chemistry and pharmacy provide products and processes that are indispensable for our high living standard. To understand their relationship with sustainability is important to allow them to contribute to sustainability in a sustainable manner. An integrated overview of green, circular, and sustainable chemistry and pharmacy is given and how they have t

Association of maternal urinary pesticide metabolites with neonatal birth outcomes and the moderating effects of iodine

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety
s: Previous studies have demonstrated the effects of prenatal pesticide exposure on birth outcomes. How to mitigate the harmful effects of pesticide exposure is of great practical significance. The micronutrient iodine is a cornerstone for the growth and

Atrazine and cancer incidence among pesticide applicators in the agricultural health study (1994-2007). [PDF]

, 2011
Atrazine is a triazine herbicide used widely in the United States. Although it is an animal carcinogen, the mechanism in rodents does not appear to operate in humans.
