Redefining the Skin Barrier: A Microbiome‐Integrated Multilayered Defense Model

open access: yesBarrier Immunity, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The skin constitutes a dynamic interface orchestrating a sophisticated multilayered defense system comprising physical, chemical, immune, and microbial barriers. This review synthesizes current understanding of the structural and functional integration of these barriers, emphasizing their synergistic interactions in maintaining cutaneous ...

Powerful yet challenging: mechanistic niche models for predicting invasive species potential distribution under climate change

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Risk assessments of invasive species present one of the most challenging applications of species distribution models (SDMs) due to the fundamental issues of distributional disequilibrium, niche changes, and truncation. Invasive species often occupy only a fraction of their potential environmental and geographic ranges, as their spatiotemporal dynamics ...

Climate and microbial community composition drive shifts in ecosystem function along three parallel elevational gradients

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Mountains are home to steep elevational gradients in environmental factors, biodiversity and ecosystem functionality. Though these gradients are tightly connected, little is known about the relative contribution of environmental and biotic factors in driving elevational changes in ecosystem functionality.

Contrasted effects of human pressure on biodiversity in the UK: a multi‐taxonomic assessment using airborne environmental DNA

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Human activities have significantly modified habitats, resulting in a global biodiversity crisis. In this study, we leveraged the first national‐scale biodiversity survey based on airborne environmental DNA, comparing the effects of three human pressure indices increasing in complexity and scope – a binary urban–rural index, an index integrating land ...
