Climate Change, Air Quality, and Pollen Allergies—State of the Art and Recommendations for Research and Public Health

Allergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Allergies are one of the major health challenges of our time, associated with a high individual burden of disease and high costs for the healthcare system. Given their prevalence, allergies are also highly relevant from a public health perspective. The development of allergic diseases is multifactorial. In addition to individual factors (e.g.,

Threatened or thriving? – The status of Serbian hoverflies on the IUCN European Red List of Hoverflies

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Spatial distribution of Critically Endangered (CR) (a), Endangered (EN) (b), and Vulnerable (VU) (c) species in Serbia, showing overlap with Prime Hoverfly Areas (PHAs) and Protected Areas (PAs). Abstract Given the widespread decline of pollinators worldwide, assessing them using the IUCN criteria is crucial to understand their conservation status ...

Corrigendum to “Pollen-based paleoenvironmental and paleoclimatic change at Lake Ohrid (south-eastern Europe) during the past 500 ka” published in Biogeosciences, 13, 1423–1437, 2016 [PDF]

, 2018
In this corrigendum we report an updated pollen record from the Lake Ohrid DEEP site spanning the past 500 ka whereby we have reprocessed and re-analyzed 104 samples affected by chemical procedure problems that occurred in one palynological laboratory ...

Breeding in natural nesting sites can improve the resilience of local Lesser Kestrel (Falco naumanni) populations to environmental changes

Ibis, EarlyView.
The identification of key habitats of threatened species and of extrinsic environmental factors that influence their resilience to human‐induced environmental changes are the foundation for the definition of conservation objectives. Using the presence and numerical abundance data collected in a long‐term survey (2000–24) of breeding colonies of Lesser ...

Unmanaged forest swamps benefit saproxylic and soil‐inhabiting crane fly communities

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Species richness of both saproxylic and soil‐inhabiting crane flies was consistently higher in unmanaged forests across all habitat types. Soil‐inhabiting species thrived in swamps and ditches, while saproxylic richness was linked to low light and high soil moisture, independent of habitat type.
