Macro‐ and microclimate interactively shape species diversity of multiple taxa in mountain landscapes

open access: yesEcography, Volume 2025, Issue 12, December 2025.
Macroclimate is a key driver of biodiversity, but habitat conditions can modulate the local microclimate by amplifying or buffering macroclimatic temperatures. The interplay between microclimatic modulation and macroclimatic temperature is crucial for shaping local biodiversity in a warming world, but remains poorly understood across life forms.

Pond frog as a predator of hornet workers: High tolerance to venomous stings

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 16, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract Some animals use stingers to repel attackers, and some predators have evolved tolerance to such stings, enabling them to consume venomous prey. For example, social wasps, such as hornets, use modified ovipositors as venomous stingers to inject venom, which can cause intense pain in humans.

Experimental Seismic Response Assessment of Tall Buildings With Large Mass Damping

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 54, Issue 15, Page 3707-3725, December 2025.
ABSTRACT This paper describes an experimental investigation into the seismic performance of a novel integrated damping system. The proposed damping concept mobilises a portion of the building's own mass to generate damping from its differential motion relative to the lateral load‐resisting system.

Grazing disrupts the trade‐off between silica‐ and phenol‐based plant defences along an aridity gradient in grasslands

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 39, Issue 12, Page 3474-3486, December 2025.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Silicon (Si) and phenolics are vital players in the plant kingdom, enabling plants to combat both biotic stresses, like herbivory and abiotic challenges, such as drought.
