Remote sensing has revolutionised many aspects of ecological research, enabling
spatiotemporal data to be collected in an efficient and highly automated manner. The last …

Radar has been used to study insects in flight for over 40 years and has helped to establish
the ubiquity of several migration phenomena: dawn, morning, and dusk takeoffs; …

Migrating animals have an impact on ecosystems directly via influxes of predators, prey, and
competitors and indirectly by vectoring nutrients, energy, and pathogens. Although linkages …

This book (10 chapters) covers radar entomology and its application in the study and
monitoring of insect flight and migration. Chapter 1 provides a general introduction to both …

Drastic declines in insect populations are a vital concern worldwide. Despite widespread
insect monitoring, the significant gaps in the literature must be addressed. Future monitoring …

Many insects depend on high-altitude, migratory movements during part of their life cycle.
The daily timing of these migratory movements is not random, eg many insect species show …

Numerous insect species undertake regular seasonal migrations in order to exploit
temporary breeding habitats [1]. These migrations are often achieved by high-altitude …

The seasonal migration of the Helicoverpa armigera (Hübner)(Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) over
the Bohai Sea was observed with a searchlight trap and an entomological radar located on …

Vast numbers of insects and passerines achieve long-distance migrations between summer
and winter locations by undertaking high-altitude nocturnal flights. Insects such as noctuid …

This paper presents a model to predict the daily spatio-temporal variation in the abundance
of airborne insects in agricultural landscapes on the basis of publicly available …
