Evidence for a Causal Relationship between the Solar Cycle and Locust Abundance

Evidence for a Causal Relationship between the Solar Cycle and Locust Abundance

Time series of abundance indices for Desert Locusts <i>Schistocerca gregaria</i> (Forskål 1775) and Oriental Migratory Locusts <i>Locusta migratoria</i><i>manilensis</i> (Meyen 1835) were analysed independently and in relation to measures of solar activity and oce...
