Coastal heathland vegetation is surprisingly resistant to experimental drought across successional stages and latitude
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-09-28)In the last decade, several major dwarf-shrub dieback events have occurred in northern European coastal heathlands. These dieback events occur after extended periods with sub-zero temperatures under snow-free conditions ... -
Coffee, child labour, and education: Examining a triple social–ecological trade-off in an Afromontane forest landscape
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022-10-08)In biodiversity rich agriculture–forest moasic landscapes in south-western Ethiopia, the production of coffee and food crops, including guarding them from forest-dwelling mammals, requires a high input of labour, which is ... -
Combining Hector SLAM and Artificial Potential Field for Autonomous Navigation Inside a Greenhouse
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018-05-22)The key factor for autonomous navigation is efficient perception of the surroundings,while being able to move safely from an initial to a final point. We deal in this paper with a wheeled mobile robot working in a GPS-denied ... -
Comparative analysis of the anthelmintic efficacy of European heather extracts on Teladorsagia circumcincta and Trichostrongylus colubriformis egg hatching and larval motility
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022-11-04)Background: Gastrointestinal nematode (GIN) control is traditionally achieved with the use of anthelmintic drugs, however due to regulations in organic farming and the rise in anthelmintic resistance, alternatives are ... -
A Comparative Study of Ten Pear (Pyrus communis L.) Cultivars in Relation to the Content of Sugars, Organic Acids, and Polyphenol Compounds
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022-09-30)Traditional pear cultivars are increasingly in demand by consumers because of their excellent taste, the possibility of use in sustainable food production systems, convenience as raw materials for obtaining products of ... -
