Competition and cooperation: The plasticity of bacteria interactions across environments

The paper assesses microbial interactions across environments using genome-scale metabolic networks, finding that most bacterial pairs can both compete and cooperate depending on resource availability.

Protected area establishment in Southern and Eastern Africa: Consequences for management today

This study examines the establishment motives and current management implications of protected areas in Southern and Eastern Africa, identifying three historical periods with distinct management challenges.

Effects of mineral addition on the establishment of grazing lawns in a nutrient poor savanna

The paper tests if adding minerals can create grazing lawns in nutrient-poor savannas, finding that phosphorus, lime, and nitrogen promote short, nutritious grasses that persist with grazing.

Provisioning polyethylene glycol (PEG) to large herbivores in nutrient poor savannas can break food limitation

This study tests the effect of PEG on herbivore diets in nutrient-poor savannas, finding it broadens diet choices but not mineral content in faeces.

Nutrient addition on grazing lawns and selection by free-roaming mammalian herbivores in a nutrient poor savanna

The paper tests if adding nitrogen to nutrient-poor savanna grasslands attracts herbivores, which in turn maintain grazing lawns.
