Pesticide use in integrated pest and pollinator management framework to protect pollinator health
Pest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 1691-1696, April 2025.Integrated pest management (IPM) emphasizes non‐chemical methods, with pesticides as a last resort, while integrated pest and pollinator management (IPPM) integrates pollinator health into pest control strategies. Abstract Agricultural pesticides have historically been a critical tool in controlling pests and diseases, preventing widespread suffering ...

Pest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 2237-2247, April 2025.The predatory effect of the honey‐buzzard affects the reproductive performance of Asian‐hornet colonies, decreasing the density of workers over distance and time. The foraging distances of the honey‐buzzard concentrates within the first 2000 m from nest, which supports the results observed.

Pest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 2300-2311, April 2025.Light‐emitting diode (LED)‐based treatments for enhancing crop production and pest management have primarily focused on continuous treatments. This study, using Tetranychus urticae and Phytoseiulus persimilis, demonstrates that the timing of LED supplementation is crucial for designing integrated pest management strategies that improve both plant ...

Low‐order system for eddy growth in the storm track
Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.Reanalysis data for the North Atlantic storm track are used to construct a low‐order model that optimally fits the observed interaction between the mean flow and baroclinic eddies. The resulting model is a certain type of predator–prey model. It explains various properties of the storm track, including why eddies grow linearly with the Eady growth rate,

Environmental Stressors Influence Spatial Complexity in a Fluvial Macrophyte meadow
Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.This research investigates the nonlinear relationships between environmental stressors and the fine‐scale spatial complexity of a fluvial macrophytes meadow. The use of multivariate spatial analysis allowed us to identify two major environmental gradients (nutrients and light) and two major complexity gradients (related to abundance and fragmentation).

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.Autonomous fixed‐wing drones operating beyond visual line of sight of the pilot were used to conduct the first aerial, multi‐species baseline reference survey at the sub‐Antarctic island of South Georgia. Long‐term population monitoring in this remote, challenging environment has historically proved difficult, with terrestrial monitoring generally ...
