Comparing Methods for Measuring Predation: Toward a Quantitative–Informative Indicator of Natural Pest Control

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
Predation methods vary widely in their ability to quantify biological control. Estimating predation rates (the number of prey killed per predator per time unit) is crucial. Combining predation rates with predator abundance yields real‐time field estimates of pests consumed.

The big impact of small change: Fresh estimates of English wheat market integration, 1693–1893

The Economic History Review, EarlyView.
Abstract Using existing and new price data sets, we provide the first estimates of market integration across England over the entire 200 years of the industrial revolution. We document a significant, though not huge, integration improvement for markets furthest from London. Full integration was achieved by the 1830s. Our price data sets vary in quality

Life Cycle Consumption and Portfolio Choice Under Real Interest Rate Risk

Financial Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We set up a life cycle model with real interest rate risk to demonstrate that real interest rates have implications for optimal household consumption and investments. Lower interest rates lead to higher optimal stock investments and lower consumption.

Using Catch Data to Estimate Changes in Global Commercial Abalone Abundance

Fisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Changes in global wild capture production of abalone are explored to infer potential changes in biological stocks. The study found that 77% (or 10 out of the 13) of the countries that reportedly caught abalone in the wild have experienced declines in catches between 1980 and 2023, and on aggregate catch declined by almost 83% between 1980 and ...

Fleet Behaviour Under Economic Uncertainty: Multi‐Species Policy Scenarios for the Purse‐Seine Fishery

Fisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Managing fishing effort remains a central challenge in achieving sustainability in many fisheries, particularly where high‐value species attract intense competition. In the Indian Ocean tropical tuna fishery, understanding how fishers respond to changing bio‐economic conditions is essential for developing effective management.
