How effective are entomopathogenic nematodes for vine weevil (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) biological control? A meta‐analysis

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Entomopathogenic nematodes provide reliable biological control of vine weevil larvae, reducing populations by 63% on average. All five tested species are effective, with temperature (18–30 °C) being the strongest predictor of success. Abstract BACKGROUND Vine weevil (Otiorhynchus sulcatus) is a globally important pest of soft fruit and ornamental crops

Field investigation of glucosinolates and morphological traits in mitigating Psylliodes chrysocephala larval infestation through crop varieties and companion planting

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Genotype and cropping system influenced oilseed rape ecophysiological traits, including glucosinolate compounds (glucoraphanin, glucobrassicanapin, and butyl‐glucosinolates) and biomass, which were linked to Psylliodes chrysocephala larval infestation, with varietal effects stronger than faba bean companion planting.

Scale interactions of deep convection in the Sahel: Exploring ring patterns in lagged cross‐correlations of rainfall

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Spatio‐temporal patterns in rainfall are evidence of scale interactions in convection in the West African Sahel. Radial normalization of two‐dimensional conditional probability maps reveals a ring‐like structure in rainfall probabilities surrounding previous rainfall.

Evaluation of the WRF model for simulating deep convection and cold‐pool characteristics relevant to wind‐energy applications in Germany

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Deep convection and cold‐pool characteristics over Germany during July 2023 are investigated using Deutscher Wetterdienst (DWD) radar observations and a Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model simulation. The temporal evolution of convective cell features reveals a downward‐facing parabolic pattern in both WRF and observations, in terms of cell ...

Machine‐learning approaches for characterizing the raindrop size distributions in Western Pacific tropical cyclones

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Long‐term disdrometer observations are utilized to derive Z–R relationships for ‐the Western Pacific tropical cyclones. A hybrid moment‐based approach is employed to determine the interrelationships among pairs of gamma distribution parameters. Enhanced estimates of rainfall rate and slope parameter are obtained using machine‐learning techniques ...
