A phototaxis assay to measure sublethal effects of pesticides on bees [PDF]
In agricultural areas, bees are pervasively exposed to pesticides at sublethal concentrations. Methods to establish whether these concentrations may cause negative effects are needed to assess the potential hazards of field-realistic levels of exposure ...

The Sublethal Effects of Neonicotinoids on Honeybees. [PDF]
Honeybees (Apis mellifera) are indispensable pollinators vital to global biodiversity, ecosystem stability, and agricultural productivity, and they promote over 35% of food crops and 75% of flowering plants. Yet, they are in unprecedented decline, partly as a result of neonicotinoid pesticide use elsewhere.

Effects of spatial variability on the exposure of fish to hypoxia: a modeling analysis for the Gulf of Mexico [PDF]
The hypoxic zone in the northern Gulf of Mexico varies spatially (area, location) and temporally (onset, duration) on multiple scales. Exposure of fish to hypoxic dissolved oxygen (DO) concentrations (< 2 mg L−1) is often lethal and avoided, while ...
