Reconsidering functional redundancy in biodiversity research

Nico Eisenhauer, Jes Hines, Fernando T. Maestre et al. · 27 Apr 2023

A key question in ecological research is whether biodiversity is important for ecosystem functioning. After approximately three decades of empirical studies on this topic, it is clear that biodiversity promotes the magnitude and stability of ecosystem functioning. However, the majority of early biodiversity-ecosystem functioning (BEF) experiments concluded that there is a saturating relationship between biodiversity…

Understanding and applying biological resilience, from genes to ecosystems

Rose Thorogood, Ville Mustonen, Alexandre Luis Padovan Aleixo et al. · 28 Aug 2023

The natural world is under unprecedented and accelerating pressure. Much work on understanding resilience to local and global environmental change has, so far, focussed on ecosystems. However, understanding a system's behaviour requires knowledge of its component parts and their interactions. Here we call for increased efforts to understand 'biological resilience', or the processes that enable…

Three pathways to better recognize the expertise of Global South researchers

Gabriel Nakamura, Bruno Eleres Soares, Valério D. Pillar et al. · 21 Aug 2023

It is widely perceived how research institutes have been adopting the discourse of champions of diversity, inclusion, and equity (DEI) in recent years. Despite progress in diversity and inclusion in the academic environment, we highlight here that nothing or, at very best, little work has been done to overcome the scientific labor division in academic…

Novel insights into the diversity of halophilic microorganisms and their functioning in hypersaline ecosystems

Aharon Oren · 2 Aug 2024

Our understanding of the microbial diversity inhabiting hypersaline environments, here defined as containing >100-150 g/L salts, has greatly increased in the past five years. Halophiles are found in each of the three domains of life. Many novel types have been cultivated, and metagenomics and other cultivation-independent approaches have revealed the existence of many previously unrecognized…

Past, present, and future of the Living Planet Index

Sophie Ledger, Jonathan Loh, Rosamunde E. A. Almond et al. · 1 Jun 2023

As we enter the next phase of international policy commitments to halt biodiversity loss (e.g., Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework), biodiversity indicators will play an important role in forming the robust basis upon which targeted, and time sensitive conservation actions are developed. Population trend indicators are one of the most powerful tools in biodiversity monitoring due…
