Landim et al. show that seed-dispersal interactions require about two decades to functionally recover in tropical forests in Ecuador, but the recovery time of seed-dispersal functions is delayed in pa...

Provides tools for creating agents with persistent state using R6 classes &lt;<a href="https://cran.r-project.org/package=R6" target="_top">https://cran.r-project.org/package=R6</a>&gt; and the 'ellmer' package &lt;<a href="https://cran.r-project.org/package=ellmer" target="_top">https://cran.r-project.org/package=ellmer</a>&gt;. Tracks prompts, messages, and agent metadata for reproducible, multi-turn large language model sessions.

Climate change is forcing species to shift their distribution ranges. Animal seed dispersers might be particularly important in assisting plants tracking suitable climates to higher elevations. Howe.....
