Landscape heterogeneity and soil biota are central to multi-taxa diversity for landscape restoration

The paper tests if increasing landscape heterogeneity through tree islands enhances multi-taxa diversity in monoculture-dominated landscapes and finds that it does by fostering unique species.

Bat teeth illuminate the diversification of mammalian tooth classes

The paper studies how tooth classes in bats evolved and diversified by analyzing developmental mechanisms and growth rate modulation.

Quantifying geographic accessibility to improve efficiency of entomological monitoring.

This paper develops a method to optimize entomological monitoring by combining remote sensing and accessibility analysis to identify efficient monitoring sites for vector control programs.

Pitfalls in estimating the global carbon removal via forest expansion - a comment on Bastin et al. (2019)

The paper critiques an overestimation of global carbon removal potential from forest expansion, recalculating it to 81 Gt C instead of 205 Gt C by accounting for existing carbon stocks.

The conserved histone chaperone LIN-53 links lifespan and healthspan regulation in C. elegans

This study shows LIN-53 links lifespan and healthspan in C. elegans by regulating chromatin and trehalose levels, with implications for evolutionary conservation.

Generalization and search in risky environments

The paper studies how people search for rewards in risky environments and finds that their behavior aligns with a Gaussian process function learning algorithm that prioritizes safety.

A protocol for an intercomparison of biodiversity and ecosystem services models using harmonized land-use and climate scenarios

This paper describes a protocol for comparing biodiversity and ecosystem services models using harmonized land-use and climate scenarios to assess future impacts and model uncertainties.
