Paola Olaya-Arenas studies insect pests and pollinators in agricultural landscapes, focusing on how farming practices and pesticides affect insects such as seedcorn maggots and monarch butterflies. Her work combines field monitoring, degree-day forecasting models, and pesticide-exposure risk assessment to inform pest management and conservation in crop-growing regions like New York and the US Midwest.
