A Case of Cyperus spp. and Imperata cylindrica Occurrences on Acrisol of the Dahomey Gap in South Benin as Affected by Soil Characteristics: A Strategy for Soil and Weed Management by Brahima Kone, Guillaume Lucien Amadji, Amadou Toure, Abou Togola, Mariame Mariko, Joël Huat

“…Because of the limiting efficacy of common weed control methods on Cyperus spp. and Imperata cylindrica their occurrences in tropical agroecologies and the effect of soil properties in suppressing these species were investigated in south Benin (Cotonou), a typical ecology of the Dahomey gap. Weeds and soil samples were collected twice early and later in the rainy season in 2009 at four topographic positions (summit, upper slope, middle slope, and foot slope). …”

Capitalizing on the wealth of chemical data in the accretionary structures of aquatic taxa: Opportunities from across the tree of life by Zoë A. Doubleday, Louise Hosking, Jasper Willoughby, Minoli Dias, Natasha Leclerc, Shanie Brault Nikolajew, Melita Peharda, Arieli Tristão Rézio, Clive Trueman

“…Chemical sclerochronology is the study of these chemical variations through time and how they are used to understand environmental change and the physiology and ecology of species. While sclerochronology research has largely focused on bivalves, teleost fish, and hard corals, there are many other aquatic taxa rich with time‐resolved chemical data. …”

A Rao-Blackwellized particle filter for joint parameter estimation and biomass tracking in a stochastic predator-prey system by Laura Martín-Fernández, Gianni Gilioli, Ettore Lanzarone, Joaquín Míguez, Sara Pasquali, Fabrizio Ruggeri, Diego P. Ruiz

“…Functional response estimation and population tracking in predator-prey systems are critical problems in ecology. In this paper we consider a stochastic predator-prey system with a Lotka-Volterra functional response and propose a particle filtering method for: (a) estimating the behavioral parameter representing the rate of effective search per predator in the functional responseand (b) forecasting the population biomass using field data. …”
