Vine Removal Prior to Harvest, and Curing Duration and Temperature Affect the Incidence and Severity of Internal Necrosis in 'Covington' Sweetpotato
HORTTECHNOLOGY, 30(5), 544–551.
author keywords: Ipomoea batatas; mowing; preharvest; postharvest; potassium fertilizer; storage; vine snatching
TL;DR:
Preharvest potash fertilizer treatments had minimal or no effect on occurrence of internal necrosis, however, mowing vines before harvest in several studies reduced IN incidence when roots were cured for more than 0.5 week at temperatures of at least 75 °F.

Short-Term, Large-Area Survey of ContainerAedes spp. (Diptera: Culicidae): Presence and Abundance is Associated with Fine-scale Landscape Factors in North Carolina, USA
ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH INSIGHTS, 14.
author keywords: Light detection and ranging; LIDAR; Aedes albopictus; mosquito ecology
TL;DR:
The ability to make robust predictions was limited by variation in the data, and increased sampling time and better landscape data would likely improve the predictive ability of the models, as would a better understanding of oviposition behavior.
