Comparisons of Modeled and Observed Reflectivities and Fall Speeds for Snowfall of Varied Riming Degrees during Winter Storms on Long Island, New York

MONTHLY WEATHER REVIEW, 144(11), 4327–4347.

By: A. Molthan*, B. Colle*, S. Yuter n & D. Stark*

TL;DR: Limited data suggest the examined WRF Model bulk microphysical parameterizations underpredict fall speeds of cold-type snow habits and underrepresent aggregates larger than 4-mm diameter, while all four schemes examined provided a better match to the observed, vertical structure of reflectivity during moderate riming than light riming periods.

Evaluating an Action Threshold-Based Insecticide Program on Onion Cultivars Varying in Resistance to Onion Thrips (Thysanoptera: Thripidae)

Journal of Economic Entomology, 109(4), 1772–1778.

By: B. Nault & A. Huseth*

MeSH headings : Animals; Antibiosis; Insect Control; Insecticides; New York; Onions / physiology; Thysanoptera
TL;DR: An action threshold-based insecticide program combined with or without a thrips-resistant onion cultivar was investigated as an improved approach for managing T. tabaci infestations in commercial onion fields, indicating that commercially acceptable bulb yields will be generated with fewer insecticide sprays following an action thresholds-based program, saving money, time and benefiting the environment.
