Beyond birds: rethinking bird‐centered pathogen models in light of insect migration

Ecography, EarlyView.
Migration redistributes biomass, nutrients, and pathogens across ecosystems. For decades, migratory birds have been treated as the default long‐distance pathogen vectors, shaping both conceptual frameworks and empirical models of disease ecology.

Migration speed, timing, and long‐term shifts in age structure in North American passerines during fall migration

Ecography, EarlyView.
Migration is challenging for birds, especially juveniles, who experience high mortality rates during migration. The challenge is exacerbated in the Anthropocene, contributing to widespread population declines. Conservation efforts focused on increasing juvenile survival could bolster population recovery.

From distant shores to an emerging island: the role of surface and subsurface transport in modeling seed dispersal

Ecography, EarlyView.
Long‐distance seed dispersal by ocean currents plays a critical role in structuring coastal plant communities. As direct observations of this phenomenon are infeasible, numerical modeling is a valuable tool. Here, we use Lagrangian particle tracking to examine the colonization of the newly forming island Norderoogsand (German Bight, Wadden Sea) by five

Over three‐quarters of earthworm species lack protection in China, a crisis exacerbated by climate change

Ecography, EarlyView.
Earthworms, as ‘ecosystem engineers', play a crucial role in regulating ecosystem functions and shaping community structures. Due to climate change, earthworms face severe survival pressures and extinction risks. However, whether conservation efforts targeting aboveground biodiversity can cover the long‐neglected earthworm diversity remains unknown. To

Nature‐Based Solutions for Climate Adaptation: Review of Barriers to Adoption and Guidelines for Policymakers

Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nature‐based solutions (NBS) for climate adaptation encompass a range of approaches that work with nature to increase resilience to climate change while providing ecological, economic and social co‐benefits. These solutions have frequently been put forward for application in urban contexts, such as the creation of urban forests, but can ...
