The paper shows that shifting baselines can lead to underestimating biodiversity loss due to changes in species composition over time, particularly in smaller forests.

The paper develops a mechanistic model of a bird-insect food web in African cocoa agroforestry to show that low-intensity farming can support biodiversity and ecosystem services without increasing pests.

This study uses genetic analysis of ancient seal samples to show that southern elephant seals recolonized the Southern Ocean from multiple glacial refugia during postglacial periods.
