In a landmark public health achievement, Papua New Guinea has been validated by WHO for eliminating #trachoma as a public health problem. Trachoma, a neglected tropical disease & the world’s leading infectious cause of blindness, no longer poses a public health threat in the country.

The yucca and the moth: How extreme weather impacts the timing of biological events Whether it is flowers sprouting in the spring, cicadas mating in the blistering heat of summer, or caterpillars hatching to feed on their favorite host plant – across the natural world, the timing of ...

Researchers took a close look at how extreme weather events like heat waves, cold snaps, heavy rainfall & droughts impact phenological processes, specifically the flight period of butterflies & moths and the flowering time of plants across the U.S. Story:

Extreme weather events have strong but different impacts on plant and insect phenology Nature Climate Change - Using community data of 581 angiosperm and 172 Lepidoptera species, the authors consider the impacts of extreme weather events (EWE) on the timing of life events...

In Nature Climate Change @natclimchange.bsky.social, we show that Extreme Weather Events (EWEs) have strong but different effects on plant and insect phenology, as individuals respond to immediate environmental cues such as EWES, likely more rapidly so than to gradual climate change. rdcu.be/eaLMu

Pushing fwd on some sci - new preprint led by @amelybauer.bsky.social! Vector competence + host use matters for VBD transmission hazard, and her new index is a handy way to provide insights across disease systems.🦟🐦 #UFBugs #IFAS #FMEL #diseaseecology www.researchsquare.com/article/rs-5...
