ACCOUNTING FOR BIODIVERSITY: Periphery Urbanization, Environmental Conflict, and Spatial Inequality in Monetizing the Value of Nature

International Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract In terms of mainstream sustainability economics, market‐led initiatives aimed at biodiversity restoration represent a productive, morally conscientious choice. Under this view, efforts in areas such as biodiversity offsetting, net gain, or finance are considered effective tools for preventing or managing environmental degradation.

From Conflicting Outcomes to Mutual Losses: How Punitive Responses to Problematic Substance Use Suppress Help‐Seeking and Cause Harm

Human Resource Management Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Problematic substance use (PSU) is a significant, inadequately managed people management challenge. Drawing on the conflicting outcomes and mutual losses perspectives on HRM and employee wellbeing, and using Job Demands‐Resources theory to explain underlying strain‐driven loss cycles, we examine factors shaping PSU and help‐seeking among 575 ...

Behavioural responses of peach potato aphid, Myzus persicae Sulzer (Hemiptera: Aphididae), to entomopathogenic fungi infected conspecifics

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Myzus persicae showed no detectable behavioural response to Beauveria bassiana‐colonised agar alone. Aphids spent significantly more time in odour fields containing EPF‐infected conspecifics than healthy aphids, agar or blank air. EPF infection may alter host‐associated odours, suggesting pathogen‐mediated cues could influence aphid behaviour and ...

Climatic factors, landscape composition and host plant traits co‐drive fruit infestation of unmanaged walnut trees by the invasive pest fly Rhagoletis completa (Cresson, 1929) (Diptera: Tephritidae)

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
The study examined multiscale factors influencing walnut fruit infestations by the invasive pest fly Rhagoletis completa. Infestation rates increased with fruit size, host tree abundance, grasslands, hedgerows and temperatures, but decreased with anthropogenic habitats and heavy spring rainfall.

Combined effects of the landscape and crop management on ant communities

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
At small spatial scales, agricultural management acts as a stronger ecological filter than landscape context, significantly shaping ant community composition. Species richness and frequency did not differ among treatments, indicating the predominance of generalist species.

Information flow and the adoption of soil‐improving and water conservation measures, and household welfare: Insights from a randomized controlled trial in Uganda

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Extension services are designed to facilitate the flow of information from researchers to farmers. However, information failures continue to impede the diffusion of soil‐improving and water conservation technologies in Sub‐Saharan African countries. We use a randomized controlled trial (RCT) to examine the impact of an extension‐based campaign
