American crocodiles on jet skis: Conflict or coexistence?

Wildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.
Federally Threatened American crocodiles have adapted to the urban landscape of southeastern Florida by taking advantage of anthropogenic basking opportunities. We suggest this behavior is key to the persistence of the species outside of protected areas.

To converge or diverge? Phenological shifts driven by plant genome size and functional traits under nitrogen deposition and mowing

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Linkages between genome size (GS) and phenology underscore the diversification of functional traits, which are indicative of life‐history and resource acquisition strategies.

Lianas and trees exhibit distinct hydraulic and functional traits in a subtropical forest

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Lianas are woody vines that rely on host trees for support to access the forest canopy. Lianas typically occur in tropical and subtropical forests and coexist with trees in subtropical secondary forests, where their interactions strongly influence forests communities ...

Life history induces markedly divergent insect responses to habitat loss

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
This study pioneers the use of deep learning to rapidly assess over 22,000 Amazonian insects, revealing life history‐dependent winners and losers from forest loss. It shows that terrestrial insects decline while aquatic insects thrive, with body size influencing dispersal, offering key insights for biodiversity conservation in tropical fragmented ...
