Abstract/Contents:Profiles imported fire ants stating that they "impact soil quality and turfgrass nutrient management affecting an estimated 8.1 million ha [hectares] in sod production, recreational, and residential settings in the southeastern U.S. [United States]." Presents a study conducted to "assess seasonally acquired hyperspectral reflectance patterns for ant-affected versus undisturbed turfgrass and soils...for a widely-used turfgrass cultivar, Tifway 419...identify wavebands (50 nm [normal meters] in width) that enhance the detection of imported fire ant mound features across seasons in heavily-managed production and recreational environments, and...[to] summarize and interpret key physicochemical spectral features resulting from non-native [fire ants] mound-building activities across seasons." Concludes that "the results of [the] investigation suggest that mower-mounted spectral devices designed to recognize and map imported fire ant infestations need to provide 3-5, user selected wavebands...to optimize ant mould detection across seasons."
