As in a batch of kombucha or a barrel of sherry, microbes can assemble into a mat-like layer at the boundary between air and liquid. In laboratory culture, the bacterium Pseudomonas fluorescens SBW25 ...

Population connectivity in marine environments arises from the movement of individuals and their genes among geographically separated habitats. In most benthic and reef species, connectivity is ...

Habitat fragmentation is a primary threat to amphibians worldwide, and new research suggests one of the reasons why. Experimental evidence for three species shows that fragmentation may hinder the ...

Electroecology examines how naturally occurring and anthropogenic electric fields influence the movement, behaviour and relationships of insects. At the ecosystem scale, insects accumulate ...

Combining topographic preferences of endangered high-elevation Puya raimondii rosettes, seed dispersal distances, and future climate scenarios, we project habitat availability in the year 2100 in the ...
