Abstract:
... The concept of thermal time, measured in degree-days, is widely used among the agricultural community in Nebraska to make decisions in corn (Zea mays L.) production. Instead of the real-time temperatures that are experienced by corn plants, most of the widely available temperature data are limited to daily timescale observations from standard meteorological stations. And a variety of equations are ...

Abstract:
... The northern long-eared myotis (Myotis septentrionalis) has declined sharply in the eastern United States due to the disease white-nose syndrome (WNS), which is caused by the fungus Pseudogymnoascus destructans (Pd). However, less is known about the species' status in the central and western parts of its range where WNS has arrived more recently. Here we report the timing of the arrival of Pd and ...

Abstract:
... The survival of insects that are dormant in winter may either increase or decrease as a consequence of elevated winter temperatures under climate change. Warming can be deleterious when metabolism of the overwintering life stages increases to the point that energy reserves are exhausted before postoverwintering reemergence. We examined experimentally how overwintering survival of swallow bugs (Hem ...
