It’s a fundamental question for ecologists in this age: How are biodiversity losses reshaping how ecosystems function? A recent study quantifies the impact of biodiversity and abundance losses on ...
Block plantations like these may look efficient, but research shows that more diverse and randomised tree arrangements boost forest productivity and ecosystem health. A new paper published in Nature ...
Grassland degradation fundamentally reshapes how biodiversity supports ecosystem multifunctionality, shifting it from being plant-dominated to being mediated by soil microbes, according to a new study ...
Wildlife biologists used a novel technique to trace the movement of carbon through Arctic and boreal forest food webs and found that climate warming resulted in a shift from plant-based food webs to ...
4/14/25 (LAPost.com) — A colossal iceberg named A-84 – comparable in size to Chicago – calved from the George VI Ice Shelf on Jan. 13, unveiling a seafloor area previously concealed for decades. This ...
Foreword / by Jeffrey A. Gordon -- Preface -- Chapter 1. Bird ecosystem services : economic ornithology for the 21st century / Christopher J. Whelan, Çağan H. Şekercioğlu, and Daniel G. Wenny -- ...
Humans have been modifying natural environments for millennia, leading to a deep co-evolution between social and natural systems. As a result, areas ...
Ecosystem engineers physically modify their environment, thereby altering habitats for other organisms. Increasingly, “engineers” are recognized as an important focus for conservation and ecological ...
A recent study quantifies the impact of biodiversity loss on ecological functions by tracking energy flows within them. It found that declines in birds and small mammals have led to a significant ...
