Abstract Little is known about long‐term variability in the organic carbon to carbonate carbon export rain ratio, despite its key role in the global carbon cycle. Here, we reconstruct glacial‐interglacial changes in the sedimentary rain ratio over the Southern Ocean, using micropaleontological (coccoliths and foraminifera) and geochemical (CaCO3, Total

The making of novel ecosystems: A process‐based framework for measurement, analysis and application
Abstract Ecological novelty is emerging rapidly due to global change drivers such as climate shifts, species introductions, defaunation, and land‐use transformation. These changes challenge how we assess, understand and manage ecosystems in the Anthropocene.

Yellow crazy ants (Anoplolepis gracilipes; YCA) are widespread invaders of islands across the Pacific and Indian Oceans. We investigated the ecological preferences and impacts of this species on a Polynesian atoll. We show that even at low abundances, this species can have important impacts on the fauna, including seabirds, and require management ...

Assessment of land‐based threats to Atlantic pelagic seabirds
Highly mobile pelagic seabirds face numerous land‐based threats during their breeding seasons, including invasive alien species, climate change, and diseases, which drive population declines. Using field expertise and a literature review, we collated a dataset assessing 18 threats affecting 49 species across 38 Atlantic Large Marine Ecosystems. We used

Effects of clay microstructure and compost quality on chlordecone retention in volcanic tropical soils: consequences on pesticide lability and plant contamination [PDF]
The scientific and economic context of our study is related to the pollution of the soils, fresh and marine water by a persistent organochlorine pesticide (chlordecone) in a tropical context (French West Indies).
