Subterranean environments contribute to three‐quarters of classified ecosystem services
ABSTRACT Beneath the Earth's surface lies a network of interconnected caves, voids, and systems of fissures forming in rocks of sedimentary, igneous, or metamorphic origin. Although largely inaccessible to humans, this hidden realm supports and regulates services critical to ecological health and human well‐being.

An aluminum shield enables the amphipod Hirondellea gigas to inhabit deep-sea environments.
The amphipod Hirondellea gigas inhabits the deepest regions of the oceans in extreme high-pressure conditions. However, the mechanisms by which this amphipod adapts to its high-pressure environment remain unknown.

Does dispersal differ between the sexes? Our findings underscore the power of genomic markers to study sex‐biased dispersal, elucidate sex determination systems, and facilitate sex assignment, with important implications for species conservation and management. ABSTRACT Does dispersal differ between the sexes?

Abstract Spring ecosystems in arid regions often serve as crucial biodiversity hotspots by providing some of the only reliable sources of surface water. However, anthropogenic activities and climate change have severely degraded spring ecosystems worldwide, emphasizing the need for large‐scale multidisciplinary studies informing conservation efforts ...

Marine invertebrates and fishes exhibit inconsistent body size responses to ocean acidification
Abstract Body size is a fundamental characteristic of all living organisms that determines physiological functions and life‐history traits. Ecological theory predicts that ocean acidification can cause body size reductions, confirmed by several studies reporting miniaturization in ectotherms.
