We’re missing a global indicator to track insects. By analyzing thousands of butterfly populations, we highlight both promising signals and key challenges—showing why these taxa are strong candidates for building a Global Index to support conservation. https://t.co/fbXCIiOUff
Our February cover gets right to the root! This larch root and its fuzzy fungal partner were photographed as part of a study showing how roots & fungal allies shift their foraging strategies as forests age

🐜Funded PhD position in Community Ecology and Biogeography, Concordia University, Montreal, Canada
🔬Research topics
Ecological and evolutionary determinants of range limits
Assembly of ecological networks
Role of soil arthropods in carbon storage
https://t.co/yDcJS8FAD6
🆕 & #OpenAccess in the journal: Roots and fungi team up differently as forests age, resulting in movement along a nutrient acquisition continuum over time
📄Root-mycorrhizal foraging strategies shift with forest age more than with nitrogen manipulation
https://t.co/vCxEIVN9AX
🆕 & #OpenAccess in the journal: Coexistence in the Serengeti isn’t simple: body size, dental traits, and water needs together shape how herbivores divide space and food
📄Multidimensional resource partitioning by Serengeti herbivores

🆕 in the journal: Static models miss the mark—adding nonlinear, density-based facilitation helps predict coexistence, persistence, and realistic community dynamics
📄Neighbor density-dependent facilitation promotes coexistence and internal oscillation

🆕 & #OpenAccess in the journal: thousands of root & soil samples show Arctic plants & fungi aren't picky—they partner with whoever's there
📄Opportunistic partner choice among arctic plants and root-associated fungi is driven by environmental conditions

We mourn the passing of our Editor-in-Chief Steve Long.
His vision to establish one of the first journals dedicated to Global Change over 30 years ago was truly ahead of its time. Through GCB, researchers have demonstrated that biology & ecosystems are not simply victims of..
Nutrients from sewage waste, agricultural runoff, rock weathering and other terrestrial sources make their way to the ocean not only in rivers, but also via groundwater!
