Global trends in biodiversity and ecosystem services from 1900 to 2050

H. M. Pereira, I. M. Rosa, I. Santos Martins, H. Kim, P. Leadley, A. Popp, D. van Vuuren, G. Hurtt, P. Anthoni, A. Arneth, D. Baisero, R. Chaplin-Kramer, L. Chini, F. Di Fulvio, M. Di Marco, , Sette

The paper assesses historical and future trends in biodiversity and ecosystem services from 1900 to 2050, finding that biodiversity and regulating services have decreased while provisioning services increased, with climate change expected to worsen future losses.

Analysis of nucleic acids extracted from rapid diagnostic tests reveals a significant proportion of false positive test results associated with recent malaria treatment

S. Hosch, C. A. Yoboue, O. T. Donfack, E. A. Guirou, J.-P. Dangy, M. Mpina, E. Nyakurungu, K. Blöchliger, C. A. Guerra, W. P. Phiri, M. O. Ayekaba, G. Garcia, M. Tanner, C. Daubenberger, T. Schindler

The paper analyzes nucleic acids from malaria RDTs to show that 4.7% of results were false-negative and 28.4% false-positive, linked to low parasite density and PfHRP2 antigen persistence after treatment.

Measuring the accuracy of gridded human population density surfaces: a case study in Bioko Island, Equatorial Guinea

B. Fries, D. L. Smith, S. Wu, A. J. Dolgert, C. A. Guerra, S. I. Hay, G. A. Garcia, J. M. Smith, J. N. M. Oyono, O. T. Donfack, J. O. O. Nfumu

This paper evaluates population density maps using census data from Bioko Island, finding that LandScan best captures urban areas, HRSL performs well in rural areas, and WorldPop is less accurate overall.

Global distribution of earthworm diversity

H. R. P. Phillips, C. A. Guerra, M. L. C. Bartz, M. J. I. Briones, G. Brown, O. Ferlian, K. B. Gongalsky, J. Krebs, A. Orgiazzi, B. Schwarz, E. M. Bach, J. Bennett, U. Brose, T. Decaëns, F. T. De Vries, , N. Eisenhauer

The paper predicts global patterns of earthworm diversity, abundance, and biomass using a dataset from 7000 sites, finding climate drives these patterns but with differences from aboveground taxa.
