Multiple Threats Have Overlapping Impacts Across Ecological Levels in Freshwater Ecosystems
ABSTRACT Changes driven by climate change, biological invasion, land‐use change, pollution and overexploitation are decreasing the resilience of freshwater ecosystems worldwide. While the impact of these threats is widely recognised, a critical gap remains in systematically quantifying their relative effects across ecological levels, which is essential

Tropical Montane Cloud Forests Have High Resilience to Five Years of Severe Soil Drought
A 5‐year throughfall exclusion experiment in a Peruvian tropical montane cloud forest reduced soil moisture by 69%, leading to lower photosynthetic inputs and autotrophic respiration but maintaining net primary productivity and carbon sink capacity. Trees responded through metabolic downregulation, reduced fruit production, increased wood density, and ...

Immatures of both Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus have been found in water-holding bromeliad axils in Brazil. Removal of these plants or their treatment with insecticides in public and private gardens have been undertaken during dengue outbreaks in ...

Understanding how animals interact with their environment across life stages is key for conservation. In our long‐term study of the Blunt‐headed tree snake (Imantodes cenchoa) in the tropical rainforest of Los Tuxtlas, Mexico, we tracked over 240 individuals and found age‐related differences in environmental preferences.
