Lethal and sublethal effects of toxicants on bumble bee populations: a modelling approach

ECOTOXICOLOGY, 29(3), 237–245.

By: J. Banks*, H. Banks n, N. Myers n, A. Laubmeier n & R. Bommarco*

author keywords: Hymenoptera; Neonicitinoid; Delay differential equation
MeSH headings : Agriculture; Animals; Bees / physiology; Ecosystem; Environmental Monitoring; Hazardous Substances / toxicity; Neonicotinoids / toxicity; Pesticides / toxicity; Pollination
TL;DR: A delay differential equation (DDE) model is used, which requires fewer parameter estimations than agent-based models while affording the ability to explicitly describe the effect of larval incubation and colony history on population outcomes. (via Semantic Scholar)

Modelling the effects of field spatial scale and natural enemy colonization behaviour on pest suppression in diversified agroecosystems

AGRICULTURAL AND FOREST ENTOMOLOGY, 22(1), 30–40.

By: J. Banks*, A. Laubmeier n & H. Banks n

author keywords: Beetle; differential equation; diffusion; dispersal; habitat heterogeneity
TL;DR: This study addresses gaps in understanding of the link between noncrop vegetation in field margins and pest suppression by using a system of partial differential equations to model population‐level predator–prey interactions, as well as spatial processes, aiming to capture the dynamics of crop plants, herbivores and two generalist predators.

Ecosystem function in predator-prey food webs-confronting dynamic models with empirical data

JOURNAL OF ANIMAL ECOLOGY, 88(2), 196–210.

author keywords: agricultural pests; allometry; body mass; conservation biological control; herbivore suppression; multitrophic functioning; predator-prey interactions; species traits
MeSH headings : Animals; Ecosystem; Food Chain; Models, Biological; Population Dynamics; Predatory Behavior; Sweden
TL;DR: It is demonstrated how in-depth model analysis can disentangle the likely drivers of function, such as the community's abundance and trait composition, and how trait-based parameterization must be refined and extended to include more traits than body size. (via Semantic Scholar)

Modeling bumble bee population dynamics with delay differential equations

ECOLOGICAL MODELLING, 351, 14–23.

By: H. Banks n, J. Banks*, R. Bommarco*, A. Laubmeier n, N. Myers n, M. Rundlof*, K. Tillman n

author keywords: Population models; Delay differential equations; Non-linear; Non-autonomous; Spline approximations; Bombus terrestris; Reproduction
TL;DR: A delay differential equation model is proposed that describes multi-colony bumble bee population dynamics and ways in which resource limitation, pesticide exposure and other pressures can be reflected in the model are described. (via Semantic Scholar)
