Suppression of creativity and innovation: Autocracies stifle the very ingenuity needed to solve complex problems (Acemoglu & Robinson 2012). Corruption and resource misallocation: Without checks and balances, leaders may prioritize their own interests over societal needs (Schedler et al. 1999). Resista...
researchers think they know why. Painted lady butterflies follow a complex, multigenerational migration, the entirety of which no one butterfly ever completes. This migration pattern made explaining the 2019 event particularly tricky. So, to identify the source of the butterfly outbreak...

First, divide large or complex sites into homogenous Weed Control Areas (WCAs) aligned with administrative or environmental boundaries. Next, use information from an initial inventory to subdivide the WCAs into Weed Control Zones (WCZs) based on weed distribution and planned treatments. Use the si...
the carnivores eat the herbivores and keep their numbers in check, which reduces the number of plants eaten and so allows more plants to grow and so the system is regulated from the top down. Top down and bottom-up effects like these exist in constant, shifting, complex balance, but what...
