Trends in marine species distribution models: a review of methodological advances and future challenges

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Correlative species distribution models (SDMs) are quantitative tools in biogeography and macroecology. Building upon the ecological niche concept, they correlate environmental covariates to species presence to model habitat suitability and predict species distributions.

Freshwater fish functional diversity shows diverse responses to human activities, but consistently declines in the tropics

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Freshwater environments are intertwined with human activities and the consequence has been environmental degradation and biodiversity loss. Fish provide key ecological and economic benefits, and fish abundance and diversity can be affected by human activities resulting in functional diversity (FD) changes that might scale up to ecosystem impacts ...

Enemy release: loss of parasites in invasive freshwater bivalves Sinanodonta woodiana and Corbicula fluminea

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Invasive freshwater bivalves harm native species, ecosystems and biodiversity, and incur economic costs. The enemy release hypothesis posits that invasive species are released from enemies during the invasion process, giving them a competitive advantage in the new environment.

Hot spots or hot moments? Contextualizing the spatio‐temporal scale of research on animal inputs

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Mammals play important roles in redistributing elements across ecosystems, concentrating biogeochemical inputs across both space and time. However, research on zoogeochemical inputs is often constrained by logistical considerations, potentially limiting our knowledge of mammals' impacts on biogeochemical patterns and processes.

The effect of trait choice on hybrid species distribution model projections under climate change

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Species distribution models (SDMs) have been increasingly combined with thermal performance data to enhance their transferability and to provide a physiological explanation for the predicted geographic patterns. Yet, while it is widely acknowledged that thermal sensitivities may vary among biological traits, it remains largely unexplored to what extent

Over three‐quarters of earthworm species lack protection in China, a crisis exacerbated by climate change

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Earthworms, as ‘ecosystem engineers', play a crucial role in regulating ecosystem functions and shaping community structures. Due to climate change, earthworms face severe survival pressures and extinction risks. However, whether conservation efforts targeting aboveground biodiversity can cover the long‐neglected earthworm diversity remains unknown. To

Mechanistic Origins of Structural Failure in Deeply‐Lithiated LixMoS2

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Global optimization and ab initio molecular dynamics reveal how Li drives the 2H to 1T′ phase transformation in MoS2 and where the layered framework begins to fracture. Controlled pre‐lithiation stabilizes 1T′ and significantly delays the onset of structural failure, while opening out‐of‐plane Li pathways, offering design rules for robust, high‐rate ...
