Pest population density oscillations have a profound effect on agroecosystem functioning, particularly when pests cycle with epidemic persistence. Here, we ask whether landscape-level manipulations can be used to restrict the cycle amplitude of the E... Read More about Putting the brakes on a cycle: bottom-up effects damp cycle amplitude.

Inhibition in task switching is inferred from slower reaction times returning to a recently performed task after one intervening trial (i.e. an ABA sequence) compared to returning to a task not recently performed (CBA sequence). These n−2 repetition... Read More about On costs and benefits of n−2 repetitions in task switching: towards a behavioural marker of cognitive inhibition.
