Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 6, June 2025.Plants in urban environments may differ in timing and investment in key life history traits compared to rural plants, particularly for species with flexible mixed mating system expression. However, it is unclear for many species whether genetic differentiation or plasticity has shaped urban phenotypes.

Long‐term population dynamics of an insect in a simple food web under a changing environment
Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 94, Issue 6, Page 1294-1306, June 2025.This long‐term population study illustrates the complexity of weather effects on insects and how population variability depends on the form of density dependence. Weak regulation leads to long‐term fluctuations without clear traces on short‐term variation. Responses to even drastic changes can be hard to detect without accurate knowledge of mechanisms.

Wild Bee Assemblages and Pollination Networks of Managed Emergent Wetlands in Central New York, USA
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 2, February 2025.Wetlands are underrepresented in wild bee surveys yet we find they host a diversity of bee species and offer important late‐season floral resources. Wetland restoration and management for wildlife in the northeastern United States creates a matrix of freshwater wetland habitat that helps support the landscape's wild bee fauna.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 12, December 2024.The effect of warm daily temperatures on the phenology of 14 species of spring‐flowering woodland herbs was investigated across five US botanic gardens. By engaging community scientists to monitor plants twice per week, we found that high daily temperatures early in the year were significantly related to shorter durations of reproductive phenophases ...

Neurogastroenterology &Motility, Volume 36, Issue 10, October 2024.In functional dyspepsia, the herbal preparation, STW5‐II, improves GI symptoms, which may be related to disturbed GI motor functions. We characterized the effects of STW5‐II on upper GI motor functions and established that it increases proximal gastric volume, reflective of reduced tone, and increases antral motility index, in healthy volunteers ...
