Scientists at Oregon State University have found that sampling stream water for evidence of the presence of various species using environmental DNA, known as eDNA, can be more accurate than electrofishing, without disrupting the fish.
Researchers at the University of Amsterdam found that the feeding behavior of several invertebrate animals in aquatic food webs is drastically changed by increasing inputs of nitrogen and phosphorus into surface waters.
UC Davis scientists found that the presence of recently dead trees on the landscape was a driver of wildfire severity for two large fires that occurred toward the end of the drought and documents the important role recently dead trees can play in exacerbating fire severity.
Researchers from the University of Southern Florida revealed that a monitor lizard should be regarded as an “ecosystem engineer,” a rarity for reptiles.
A UC Davis team collected post-fire recovery data to develop a unique tool to better understand where to focus forest regeneration efforts.
With increased upward migration of species due to climate change, researchers at the Indian Institute of Science found that this migration only maintained species survival rates when moving to intact forests.
Junior and female ecology and evolutionary biology faculty are most negatively impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, according to a study done by Purdue University and Colorado State University researchers.
Scientists who track-and-trace fish for a living claim that analysing seawater can tell us the richest story of what lies beneath the waves.
A study of the impacts of COVID-19 in an academic setting shows that female faculty, early-career researchers and those in caretaking roles have been most impacted by the pandemic.

A recent paper by researchers at Appalachian State University and Virginia Tech, published in the journal Ecology, shows how some small worms can influence entire stream ecosystems.
An international consortium of scientists, including University of Buffalo researchers, has created the first-ever common framework for increasing comparability of research findings on coral bleaching.
Scientists, including ones from the University of Washington, have created the first-ever framework for increasing the comparability of research findings on coral bleaching by using common language and reference points to increase collaboration and efficiency.
Ein internationales Konsortium von Forschenden mit Beteiligung des Leibniz-Zentrums für Marine Tropenforschung (ZMT) hat nun den ersten gemeinsamen Handlungsrahmen geschaffen, um Forschungsergebnisse zur Korallenbleiche besser vergleichen zu können und so wissenschaftliche Erkenntnisse zu beschleunigen. Die daraus resultierenden Empfehlungen sind jetzt in der Fachzeitschrift Ecological Applications erschienen.
An international consortium of scientists, including Penn State researchers, has created the first-ever common framework for increasing comparability of research findings on coral bleaching.
A new common framework developed by a team of top scientists will help research into climate-threatened ocean reefs around the world.
An international consortium of scientists has created the first-ever common framework for increasing comparability of research findings on coral bleaching. The guidelines were published in Ecological Applications.
Research on tree swallows suggests city living may offer advantages, but not without risks.
A study published in Ecological Applications suggests that nature around one’s home may help mitigate some of the negative mental health effects of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Long-term biodiversity data from 12 immense forest study plots spanning 1,500 miles point to maple trees – long appreciated for their autumn foliage and the syrup that graces our tables – as potential foundation species in both China and North America.
