Simple models for biological control of crop pests and their application

Luz Vianey Vela Arevalo

In this work, we construct simple models in terms of differential equations for the dynamics of pest populations and their management using biological pest control. For the first model used, the effect of the biological control is modelled by a function of ...

Imaging-based molecular barcoding with pixelated dielectric metasurfaces

Hatice Altug, Andreas Tittl, Filiz Yesilköy, Aleksandrs Leitis, Mingkai Liu

Metasurfaces provide opportunities for wavefront control, flat optics, and subwavelength light focusing. We developed an imaging-based nanophotonic method for detecting mid-infrared molecular fingerprints and implemented it for the chemical identification ...

Coalitional Control for Self-Organizing Agents

Ezequiel González Debada

Coalitional control is concerned with the management of multi-agent systems where cooperation cannot be taken for granted (due to, e.g., market competition, logistics). This paper proposes a model predictive control (MPC) framework aimed at large-scale dyn ...

Impact Assessment of Pesticides Applied in Vegetable-Producing Areas in the Saharan Zone : the Case of Burkina Faso

Edouard René Gilbert Lehmann

The present thesis aimed at characterizing the extent of the pesticide contamination and resulting impacts on the environment and the human health in market garden-ing areas in Burkina Faso. Analytical procedures were developed and validated for multi-clas ...

Dietary risk assessment of pesticides from vegetables and drinking water in gardening areas in Burkina Faso

Luiz Felippe De Alencastro, Edouard René Gilbert Lehmann

Vegetables and water samples have been collected around the lake of Loumbila in Burkina Faso. Pesticides resi- dues in food commodities were analyzed using a modified QuEChERS extraction method prior analysis on GC-MS and UPLC-MS/MS of 31 pesticides. Maxim ...

Evaluation of the risk to groundwater after treating logs with cypermethrin

Dominique Grandjean, Luiz Felippe De Alencastro, Dimitri Dousse

In order to protect conifer logs against attacks from the striped ambrosia beetle (Trypodendron lineatum ) during spring in Swiss forests, logs are treated with the insecticide cypermethrin. Rainfall can cause the insecticide to leach into the ground, pote ...

The Use of Passive Samplers to Reveal Industrial and Agricultural Pollution Trends in Swiss Rivers

Luiz Felippe De Alencastro, Nicolas Estoppey, Julien Omlin, Adrien Schopfer, Robin Udrisard

This study shows the efficiency of passive sampling to reveal industrial and agricultural pollution trends. Two practical applications for nonpolar and polar contaminants are presented. Low-density polyethylene (LDPE) samplers were deployed for one year in ...

Catchment-scale herbicides transport: Theory and application

Andrea Rinaldo, Enrico Bertuzzo, Gianluca Botter

This paper proposes and tests a model which couples the description of hydrologic flow and transport of herbicides at catchment scales. The model accounts for streamflow components' age to characterize short and long term fluctuations of herbicide flux con ...

Dynamics and environmental risk assessment of the herbicide glyphosate and its metabolite AMPA in a small vineyard river of the Lake Geneva catchment

Luca Rossi, Pierre-Jean Copin

The use of pesticides may lead to environmental problems, such as surface water pollution, with a risk for aquatic organisms. In the present study, a typical vineyard river of western Switzerland was first monitored to measure discharged loads, identify so ...

The herbicide glyphosate and its metabolite AMPA in the Lavaux vineyard area, western Switzerland: Proof of widespread export to surface waters. Part II: The role of infiltration and surface runoff

Luiz Felippe De Alencastro

Two parcels of the Lavaux vineyard area, western Switzerland, were studied to assess to which extent the widely used herbicide, glyphosate, and its metabolite aminomethylphosphonic acid (AMPA) were retained in the soil or exported to surface waters. They w ...

Deposition and residues of azoxystrobin and imidacloprid on greenhouse lettuce with implications for human consumption

Anna Kounina Massé

Lettuce greenhouse experiments were carried out from March to June 2011 in order to analyze how pesticides behave from the time of application until their intake via human consumption taking into account the primary distribution of pesticides, field dissip ...

Field solar degradation of pesticides and emerging water contaminants mediated by polymer films containing titanium and iron oxide with synergistic heterogeneous photocatalytic activity at neutral pH

César Pulgarin, Félicien Mazille

Photocatalytic degradation of phenol, nalidixic acid, mixture of pesticides, and another of emerging contaminants in water was mediated by TiO2 and iron oxide immobilized on functionalized polyvinyl fluoride films (PVFf-TiO2-Fe oxide) in a compound parabol ...

Biochemistry of Microbial Degradation of Hexachlorocyclohexane and Prospects for Bioremediation

Christof Holliger, Vishakha Raina

Lindane, the gamma-isomer of hexachlorocyclohexane (HCH), is a potent insecticide. Purified lindane or unpurified mixtures of this and alpha-, beta-, and gamma- isomers of HCH were widely used as commercial insecticides in the last half of the 20th century ...
