Bumblebee flight distances in relation to the forage landscapeJuliet L Osborne
Department of Plant and Invertebrate Ecology, Rothamsted Research, Harpenden, Hertfordshire, AL5 2JQ, UK
J Anim Ecol 77:406-15. 2008..terrestris foraging was large enough to buffer against effects of forage patch and flowering crop heterogeneity, but bee species with shorter foraging ranges may experience highly variable colony success according to location...
Effects on weed and invertebrate abundance and diversity of herbicide management in genetically modified herbicide-tolerant winter-sown oilseed rapeDavid A Bohan
Rothamsted Research, Harpenden, Hertfordshire AL5 2JQ, UK
Proc Biol Sci 272:463-74. 2005..Year totals for Collembola were greater under GMHT management. There were few other treatment effects on invertebrates, despite the marked effects of herbicide management on the weeds...

Rothamsted Research, Harpenden, Hertfordshire, UK
J Exp Biol 210:3763-70. 2007..The implications of these findings for animal foraging in general are discussed...
