The paper uses time-lagged causal inference to show climate and anthropogenic factors reduce seabird breeding success and population size, with delayed recruitment effects contributing to declines.

This study assesses factors influencing tree drought resilience using tree ring data from 2909 trees across Europe, finding limited predictability in drought responses.

The paper quantifies vertebrate population declines under various threats and finds that multiple interacting threats, not just habitat loss or exploitation, drive faster declines.
