Integrating ecological feedbacks across scales and levels of organization
In ecosystems, species interact in various ways with other species, and with their local environment. In addition, ecosystems are coupled in space by diverse types of flows. From these links connecting different ecological entities can emerge circular pathways of indirect effects: feedback loops.

Toward a global repository of insect traits (GRIT)
Biodiversity loss is accelerating, yet insect conservation is hindered by the absence of a centralised, comprehensive trait database. We propose the GRIT, a FAIR, open‐access platform uniting datasets and collaborators worldwide. GRIT will harness advanced computational tools for trait acquisition and imputation, enabling large‐scale ecological ...

Messages for ultraviolet‐radiation protection to fair‐skinned populations
This expert consensus summarizes messages for UV protection in fair‐skinned populations. Key messages include no sunbathing or tanning, no sunbeds. UV protection measures are to be used from UV index 3. Priority is given to shade and physical protection. Sunscreen with a strong SPF is to be used on uncovered areas.
