Access to adequate pollen sources in agricultural landscapes is critical for the nutrition and development of bees. The type and quantity of pollen available to bees and may be determined by local plant diversity, land-use intensity and landscape structure but different bee species likely respond differently to these parameters. Identifying community and specific responses is therefore imperative to understand pollinator population dynamics in agricultural landscapes.

- Honey bee colonies are vital for society and the economy, but beekeepers face challenges like parasites, reduced pollen, and pesticide exposure, necessitating a better understanding of colony health.
- To address these issues, the B-GOOD project was created to develop a Health Status Index (HSI) for bee colonies by collecting and analyzing various data points related to colony health and environmental conditions.
- This project emphasizes the importance of standardized data collection and machine learning to provide beekeepers with targeted guidance and contribute to sustainable beekeeping practices.
We investigated the noise and photoresponse characteristics of various optical transparencies of nanotube networks to identify an optimal randomly oriented network of carbon nanotube (CNT)-based devices for UV-assisted gas sensing applications. Our investigation reveals that all of the studied devices demonstrate negative photoconductivity upon exposure to UV light. Our studies confirm the effect of UV irradiation on the electrical properties of CNT networks and the increased photoresponse with decreasing UV light wavelength.

Despite the commercial availability of high-quality ITO and some low-cost methods for direct deposition being in use by now, the definition of patterns is still a concern. Putting their popularity and extensive use aside, the manufacturing of ITO electrodes so far lacks a rapid, highly reproducible, flexible, cost-effective, easy patterning process that could surpass difficult, time-consuming techniques such as lithography.
