Aerial application of pheromones for mating disruption of an invasive moth as a potential eradication tool. [PDF]
Biological invasions can cause major ecological and economic impacts. During the early stages of invasions, eradication is desirable but tactics are lacking that are both effective and have minimal non-target effects.

Evolution of Physical Intelligence Across Scales
By following the evolution of physical intelligence across scales, this article shows how intelligence arises from materials, structures, physical interactions, and collectives. It establishes physical intelligence as the evolutionary foundation upon which embodied intelligence is built.

Effectiveness Of Pheromone Traps Against Tuta Absoluta
In the Tunisian south, the heated greenhouses are an important axis of development of agriculture thanks to the big geothermal potential of this zone. Currently, this sector suffers from several phytosanitary problems. In the last years, a new insect, Tuta absoluta, threaten the cultures of cultivated tomatoes in heated greenhouses.

Release of multicomponent pheromones from porous fibres
Abstract Surface engineering empowers a polymer exclusion net to serve dual functions: physical exclusion and pheromonal release, allowing for pest control in agricultural crops. In previous work, a net woven from porous fibres releasing simple, single‐component alarm pheromones showed promising results in field tests.

EFFECTS OF SPACING AND TRAP NUMBER ON INTERACTIONS BETWEEN PEA MOTH PHEROMONE TRAPS
The effects of spacing and trap number on interactions between pheromone traps for the pea moth, Cydia nigricana, placed in lines along the wind were investigated. In pairs of traps, each containing 100μg (E,E)—8,10— dodecadien—1—yl acetate, an interaction was evident at spacings of 25–200 m, and the upwind trap usually caught more moths than the ...

The proposed hybrid osprey‐salp swarm optimization algorithm addresses optimal power flow (OPF) problems in smart grids incorporating solar, hydro, and thermal generators. The algorithm is validated on Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers 30‐, 57‐, and 118‐bus test systems across five single and multiobjective OPF scenarios.
