Published in 2021 at "Agricultural and Forest Meteorology"

DOI: 10.1016/j.agrformet.2021.108357

Abstract: Abstract Modeling dispersal of wind-borne pests can be a valuable tool in a broader context of areawide integrated pest management. In such models both biotic and abiotic factors play important roles. Many aspects of the… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Ecological Modelling"

DOI: 10.1016/j.ecolmodel.2019.02.014

Abstract: Abstract Integrating population ecology and aeroecology is important for understanding dispersal dynamics of pest insects that depend on aerial habitats. Sugarcane aphid (Melanaphis sacchari) is an economic pest of sorghum in Asia, Africa, Australia, and… read more here.

Published in 2025 at "Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America"

DOI: 10.1073/pnas.2513739122

Abstract: Significance Mosquito-borne diseases threaten public health and food security. Long-range spread of these pathogens has been regarded as reflecting human or animal movement. By screening approximately one thousand mosquitoes captured on nets suspended from helium… read more here.
