What mechanisms shape ecological networks? In Paraná River piscivores, species traits and abundance scaling promote modular structures. Our findings reveal how communities self-organize and highlight...

Synthesis and applications. Our results show that invasion risk emerges from the interaction between landscape connectivity and local population demography. For invasive species with complex life cyc...

The results highlight key features for the assessment of pollutants risks to biodiversity. Landscape connectivity, species dispersal capacities, trait-mediated shifts in competition, and reduction in...

In the context of the looming biodiversity crisis, adding patches of habitat has been proposed as a restoration strategy in several ecosystems. However, these interventions rarely mimic the condition...

YATSI aims to represent scientists based in academia and in industry, and to build bridges between the two sectors.

Nature - Eight of its journals will publish papers open-access each year they earn sufficient library revenue.

IMPORTANT DATES Workshop: 30 June – 3 July, 2025 The workshop starts on June 30 at 5pm and ends on July 3 in the evening. Pre-school: June 29 (afternoon) & June 30, 2025 Registration deadline: 15 March, 2025 Notification of acceptance: 22 March, 2025 OVERVIEW Evolutionary rescue is a topic of great interest, from medicine to agriculture to conservation, and from natural observations to experiments to theory. In 2023, we organised a workshop on ‘Mathematical models of evolutionary rescue’. In...

A good research paper is more than just a clear, concise, scientific expose. It is a document that needs to go beyond the science to attract attention. There are both strict and less definable norms f...

Aim Despite unprecedented environmental change due to anthropogenic pressure, recent work has found increasing dissimilarity due to turnover but no overall trend in species diversity through time at...

Between 40% and 50% of children didn’t live past 5 in the US during the 19th century. Popular authors like Charles Dickens documented the common but no less gutting grief of losing a child.

[FREE TO READ] Species resurrection is nearing reality — it may also be distracting us from saving animals on the brink

Many European woody species are light-demanding and fail to regenerate in the shaded interiors of temperate forests. Most of these species are dispersed by frugivorous and seed-caching birds. The spa....

Here I argue that we do not discuss experimental design, often until it is too late. This editorial seeks to begin a conversation about how and where to replicate appropriately.
