Parsimonious machine learning for the global mapping of aboveground biomass potential
Advances in computational power and methods, and the widespread availability of remote sensing data have driven the development of machine learning models for estimating global carbon storage. Current models often rely on dozens of predictor variables to estimate aboveground biomass density (AGBD), resulting in accurate but complex models that are ...

Cooperative and plural breeding by the precocial Vulturine Guineafowl
Cooperative breeding in birds is thought to be more common in altricial species, with few described cases in precocial species. However, cooperative breeding may also be more difficult to detect in precocial species and could have been overlooked. We investigated whether precocial Vulturine Guineafowl Acryllium vulturinum breed cooperatively and, if so,

The Lost Large Mammals of Arabia
ABSTRACT Aim If successful, plans to restore the vegetation of the Arabian Peninsula (AP) as announced by the Middle East and Saudi Green Initiatives will see the greatest increase in vegetation cover since the beginning of the Holocene Humid Phase (HHP), roughly 9–10,000 years ago.

ABSTRACT Aim This paper is a response to Li and Xue (2024) regarding the global species richness and distribution of the eriophyoid mites, which are highly host‐specific phytophages. Discussion The number of described plant species is approaching 400,000. This enormous level of plant diversity has played a fundamental role in the diversification of the
