Regularities in species’ niches reveal the world’s climate regions
eLife, 2021 Climate regions form the basis of many ecological, evolutionary, and conservation studies. However, our understanding of climate regions is limited to how they shape vegetation: they do not account for the distribution of animals.

Temporally-aware algorithms for the classification of anuran sounds [PDF]
, 2018 Several authors have shown that the sounds of anurans can be used as an indicator of climate change. Hence, the recording, storage and further processing of a huge number of anuran sounds, distributed over time and space, are required in order to ...
