Anticoagulant Rodenticides Contribute to a Decline in an Urban Carnivore

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.
Anticoagulant rodenticides (ARs) have been shown to negatively affect carnivores globally and are closely tied to human activity and development. We examined drivers of annual survival in bobcats persisting on a residentially developed barrier island over 16 years.

Temperature interacts with jack pine host defences to influence the growth of mountain pine beetle‐associated fungi

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Optimal growing temperatures varied with mountain pine beetle‐associated fungal species. There was only a marginal impact of temperature on the response of fungi to defensive monoterpenes of novel host pine. Interspecific facilitation occurred for Leptiographuim longiclavatum when grown in Ophiostoma montium‐induced treatments at optimal temperatures ...

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

Why are surveys struggling to estimate vote shares?

American Journal of Political Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Polling in the 2020 US presidential elections significantly underestimated Trump support, calling into question the accuracy of all political surveys. Although many have speculated that this bias is due to Trump supporters refusing to respond to surveys, we have previously lacked the data to directly evaluate this theory.

From Loss to Transformation? Towards Pluralistic and Politicised Agrarian‐Climate Futures

Asia Pacific Viewpoint, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Understanding how actors perceive and anticipate future states of the world is gaining traction in climate change governance scholarship and related calls for sustainability transformations. However, smallholder farmers, indigenous groups, and local communities, who are expected to bear disproportionate burdens of loss and damage from climate ...
