Intra‐ and Interspecific Effects on Spatio‐Temporal Behavior of Common Commensal Rodent Species
Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.This study revealed major findings on spatio‐temporal behavior of commensal rodents on a pig farm showing the influence of interspecific dominance on movement behavior and the resulting species‐specific ecological adaptations. Additionally, rodents tend to stay in their home ranges and migration to other stable buildings is only rare.

A novel generalized spatial mark‐resight model that accounts for group associations
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.Abstract The number and distribution of animals in space form the basis of many wildlife studies. Yet, reliable estimation of population abundance remains challenging. Generalized spatial mark‐resight (gSMR) models are widely applicable abundance estimators that do not require all individuals be uniquely identifiable.

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.Global climate change will modify the distribution areas of important cereal bugs by changing environmental conditions. Information on their dispersal possibilities can help to clarify their future economic importance and damage potential. In this study, we modelled the current potential and future distribution of four important pests by using the ...

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.Abstract The timing and amount of rainfall are crucial in forage growth. Producer perceptions of the rainfall distribution are likely to influence their choices related to the Pasture, Rangeland, and Forage Rainfall Index insurance program. Because of the scarcity of forage production data, diversity of forage production systems, and climates ...

Optimal timing and rate of nitrogen fertilizer use: An integrated network technology approach
American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.Abstract Both the rate and timing of crop fertilizer application play an important role in agricultural productivity. However, inefficient fertilizer use can significantly increase production costs, water pollution, and greenhouse gas emissions. To capture both the spatial heterogeneity and dynamic nature of this problem, we develop a multi‐stage ...

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.Abstract Agricultural subsidies can be an effective policy tool to enhance soil organic carbon sequestration. This paper assesses the effectiveness of a second‐best hypothetical policy which subsidizes additional canola hectares optimally for each soil zone in Saskatchewan in an effort to increase soil organic carbon.

Archaeometry, EarlyView.Abstract This paper explores the relationship between wetland ecosystems and prehistoric lakeshore settlements within the Lake Ohrid basin (a biodiversity hotspot) by considering plant food systems at Ploča Mičov Grad, North Macedonia. The mid‐fifth millennium (c.4555–4373 to 4437–4241 cal BCE) waterlogged assemblage contained a diverse spectrum of ...
