The Resilience of Polar Collembola (Springtails) in a Changing Climate
Assessing the resilience of polar biota to climate change is essential for predicting the effects of changing environmental conditions for ecosystems. Collembola are abundant in terrestrial polar ecosystems and are integral to food-webs and soil nutrient

Biotic Recovery of Early Triassic Crinoids [PDF]
The Permian-Triassic mass extinction was the most catastrophic loss of life in history. It also represents a major shift in the biota of earth. Ninety six percent of marine species went extinct and the few survivors had to adapt to the harsh post ...

Prolonged and gradual recovery of metazoan-algal reefs following the end-Permian mass extinction [PDF]
The tempo of biotic recovery following extinction reflects the time scales of evolutionary processes and the long-term consequences of degraded ecosystems, but recovery patterns are poorly resolved.

Microbial activity and hard red spring wheat growth improvement following biostimulant application
Reclamation of oil and gas disturbed soils is challenging due to diminished function (i.e., soil physical, chemical, and biological properties) from the loss of soil organic carbon (SOC) and potential mixing of topsoil and subsoil. Biostimulants are agro‐

Silicon enhancement of estimated plant biomass carbon accumulation under abiotic and biotic stresses. A meta-analysis [PDF]
International audienceAbstractAbiotic and biotic stresses are the major factors limiting plant growth worldwide. Plants exposed to abiotic and biotic stresses often cause reduction in plant biomass as well as crop yield, resulting in plant biomass carbon

Early Silurian crinoid diversification on Baltica: Euspirocrinus varbolaensis sp. nov. [PDF]
This article describes the crinoid Euspirocrinus varbolaensis sp. nov. from the early Silurian (Rhuddanian) of northern Estonia. Discovered within the lower Rhuddanian strata in the Reinu quarry, Rapla Parish, this is the second Rhuddanian species of ...
