... detected in Africa in 2016, FAW reached Australia and Papua New Guinea in 2020, quickly spreading to Timor-Leste, New Caledonia, Solomon Islands, New Zealand, and most recently, Vanuatu (June 2023). The pest feeds on crops like maize, rice, and vegetables, causing potential losses of up to 100% (Fig 1). With agriculture underpinning Pacific economies, FAW directly threatens food security and the livelihoods of farmers and communities. ...

In the Fall of 2024 Antlia released a pair of new multi-narrowband (MNB) filters, the ALP-T 3nm with either O-III/Hα pass bands or Hβ/S-II pass bands. These are an improvement over their existing ALP-T 5nm filters, and a direct competitor to existing filters in the 3nm MNB class. In this review I put a sample of these new filters to the test to see...
We investigate the recovery of nodes and amplitudes from noisy frequency samples in spike train signals, also known as the super-resolution (SR) problem. When the node separation falls below the Rayleigh limit, the problem becomes ill-conditioned. Admissible sampling rates, or decimation parameters, improve the conditioning of the SR problem, enabl...
Let $\iota_{k}(m,l)$ denote the total number of intervals of length $m$ across all Dyck paths of semilength $k$ such that each interval contains precisely $l$ falls. We give the formula for $\iota_{k}(m,l)$ and show that $\iota_{k}(k,l)=\binom{k}{l}^2$. Motivated by this, we propose two stronger variants of the wreath conjecture due to Baranyai for...
