Oak Ridge Associated Universities and the Ecological Society of America officially began a working relationship with the signing of a memorandum of understanding during the ESA’s 108th annual meeting in Portland, Oregon, on Monday, August 7, 2023.
Leaders in U.S. environmental and science policy will review the emerging details of the first U.S. National Nature Assessment with the ecological community.
ESA will present its 16th annual Regional Policy Award to the Director for the Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Indian Reservation’s Department of Natural Resources Eric Quaempts on Sunday, Aug 6, 5:00pm EDT, during the ESA Conference Opening Plenary.
(July 19, 2023) – New research published in the journal Ecology explores why some species of bees specialize in visiting one type of plant over others.
New research published in Ecosphere shows that smoke – even a lot of smoke – wasn’t enough to deter visitors to national parks between the years 1980 and 2019. National park attendance numbers held steady regardless of the presence of even a dramatic amount of wildfire smoke.
Cities provide important connections to nature as well as habitat for many species, according to new research in Frontiers in Ecology and the Environment.
Scientists have created a tool based on the habitat preferences of the black-backed woodpecker to help forest managers make decisions that promote regrowth and biodiversity following wildfires.
New research, recently published in the journal Ecology, shows that in northern forests, the presence of deer substantially increased the number of earthworms.
In a study published online April 26 in the journal Ecology, a University of Michigan-led research team used a pint-sized predator-prey-parasite system inside 20-gallon water tanks to test the ‘healthy herds hypothesis.’
To learn more about the causes of recent seismic shifts in insect populations, scientists at Davidson College and Catawba College collaborated on a three-year research project with more than 50 other scientists to examine the impact of temperature variation on insects in North America. The research was published in the scientific journal Ecology in late March.

Research published in Ecology took a closer look into candy-striped spider’s behaviour and found that the result of their stealth attacks could have substantial impacts on ecosystems.
The greater amount of Japanese barberry growing on a property, the greater amount of Lyme disease-carrying ticks you are likely to have.
There’s a surprising and highly influential link between invasive earthworms, white-tailed deer and tree harvesting in northern forests, according to new research from the University of Minnesota.
When the sea ice vanishes, Antarctic seals become silent. This is the main conclusion of a new article just published by Dr Ilse van Opzeeland’s research group.
A University of Oregon ecologist has been awarded a fellowship from the Ecological Society of America for research and outreach that has proven her an exceptional leader.
by Folke Mehrtens, Alfred Wegener Institute, Helmholtz Center for Polar and Marine Research April 17, 2023 Wenn das Meereis verschwindet, verstummen antarktische Robben. Das ist das Ergebnis eines Fachartikels, den eine Gruppe um Dr. Ilse van Opzeeland jetzt veröffentlicht hat. Die Biologin forscht am Alfred-Wegener-Institut, Helmholtz-Zentrum für Polar- und Meeresforschung (AWI) und am Helmholtz-Institut für Funktionelle Marine Biodiversität an der…
Native bees in the Oregon Coast Range are diverse and abundant in clearcut areas within a few years of timber harvest but their numbers drop sharply as planted trees grow and the forest canopy closes, research by Oregon State University shows.
Deteriorating habitat conditions caused by climate change are wreaking havoc with the timing of bird migration. A new study demonstrates that birds can partially compensate for these changes by delaying the start of spring migration and completing the journey faster – but the strategy comes with a decline in overall survival.
Current SW CASC Natural Resource Workforce Development Fellow (NRWD), Elijah Catalan, was recently named a 2023 Katherine S. McCarter Graduate Student Policy Award recipient from the Ecological Society of America.
