Since the first discovery of deep-sea hydrothermal vents along the Galápagos Rift in 1977,
numerous vent sites and endemic faunal assemblages have been found along mid-ocean …

With the expansion in the quantity and types of biodiversity data being collected, there is a
need to find ways to combine these different sources to provide cohesive summaries of …

At large scales, the mechanisms underpinning stability in natural communities may vary in
importance due to changes in species composition, mean abundance, and species richness. …

Accurate and robust population monitoring is essential to effective biodiversity conservation.
Citizen scientists are collecting opportunistic biodiversity records on unprecedented …

Species-specific population estimates are fundamental for many aspects of ecology, evolution,
and conservation, yet they are lacking for most species. Aiming to fill this gap, Callaghan …

Dispersal limitation, not just environmental selection, plays an important role in microbial
biogeography. The distance–decay relationship is thought to be weak in habitats where …

Temperature constrains the transmission of many pathogens. Interventions that target
temperature-sensitive life stages, such as vector control measures that kill intermediate hosts, …

Climate change affects the phenology of annual life cycle events of organisms, such as
reproduction and migration. Shifts in the timing of these events could have important population …

Movements through or use of offshore wind farms by seabirds while commuting or foraging
may increase the potential for collision with turbine blades. Collision risk models provide a …

Understanding the mechanisms underlying biological systems, and ultimately, predicting
their behaviours in a changing environment, requires overcoming the gap between …
