Towards a Replicable Innovative Tool for Adaptive Climate Monitoring and Weather Forecasting Using Traditional Indigenous and Local Indicators to Strengthen AgroWeather Resilience... por Osumba, Joab, Radeny, Maren A.O., Recha, John W.M., Oroma, George W., Nzoka, Oscar, Mbingo, Joyce, Warinda, Enock, Mwale, Simon

“…Results comprise identified ethnographic weather prediction indicators per locality, and their implications for local weather forecasting, which for the first time is presented in probabilistic terms in a way local communities can associate with, and which can compare and contrast empirically with conventional weather forecast language. The tool also provides actionable agro-climate/ agro-weather advisories with appropriate lead times for local response and a basis for strategic seasonal planning and operational risk management decision-making. …”

Neutrality: a cornerstone of facilitation practice? por Boesten, Ida

“…The value in this thesis lies in its potential for the findings to be used by facilitators as a language for reflection and explaining choices. If facilitators were to use the findings in clarifying processes and establishing trust, this in turn may lead to more equitable decisions.…”

A phantom ultrasonic insect chorus repels low‐flying bats, but most are undeterred por Sedlock, Jodi L., Gomes, Dylan G. E., Rubin, Juliette J., Woody, Sarah, Hadi, Buyung A. R., Barber, Jesse R.

“…We alternated between chorus‐on and chorus‐off hourly, and acoustically monitored bat activity and arthropod prey abundance.We found that our phantom katydid chorus reduced bat activity nearest the sound source by 39.3% (95% CI: 7.8%–60.0%) for species whose call spectrum fully overlapped with the chorus, and elicited marginal reductions in activity in species with only partial spectral overlap.Our study suggests that ultrasonic insect choruses degrade foraging habitat, potentially suppressing bats’ ecosystem services as consumers of pests; and, given the global distribution of meadow katydids, may provide an underappreciated force modifying animal behaviour in other grassland habitats.A free Plain Language Summary can be found within the Supporting Information of this article.…”

Response of maize to different nutrient sources under different landscape positions in cereal mixed farming systems of tropical agroecosystems por Agegnehu, Getachew, Bazie, Zerfu, Desta, Gizaw, Tadesse, Kassu, Legesse, Gizachew, Birhanu, Hirut, Getnet, Habtamu, Addis, Ayalew, Yibabie, Tarekegn, Alemayehu, Beamlaku, Bulo, Fayisa, Demiss, Mulugeta, Amede, Tilahun, Tigabie, Abiro, Wendt, John, Nagarajan, Latha, Singh, Upendra, Stewart, Zachary P.

“…Developing site-specific fertilizer recommendations advisory will enhance nutrient use efficiency, increase and sustain yield, and benefit farmers while improving soil and environmental quality. Plain Language Summary This paper reports research targeting different nutrient sources on maize yield and soil properties under different landscape positions.Our understanding of the management of plant nutrients under different landscape positions in tropical farming systems is still limited, where soil fertility depletion and nutrient mining are key constraints to increased and sustainable crop yield because of low soil organic matter content, low nutrient and water retention capacity, and nutrient losses. …”
