Dung beetles suppressed cumulative methane flux from cattle dung by 85% and reduced total greenhouse gas emissions by 18%. Beetle activity accelerated initial CO2 release but did not alter total cumulative flux. N2O and NH3 fluxes were transient and not consistently driven by beetle presence.

Programmable Inter‐Droplet Communication by Polymer‐Gated Ion Transport Through Nanopore Lattices
Laser‐written polyelectrolyte barriers were applied for regulating imbibition and ion transport through silica mesopores between droplet compartments. Specific imbibition sequences and precipitation readouts indicated cation‐selective transport across the barriers. Depending on salt identity, barrier, and experimental parameters, ionic transport ranged

Uncovering correlates of decline and critical refuges for a threatened terrestrial mammal
Abstract Globally, the geographic ranges of numerous species are contracting. Identifying spatiotemporal patterns of threat impact can illuminate why species decline in some parts of their range but persist in others. We developed a correlative approach to identify species’ response thresholds and locate ecological refuge areas associated with ...

Enforcing environmental law in the Amazon
Abstract This article identifies the underlying obstacles to enforcement of laws against environmental crimes such as illegal logging, mining and ranching. With four departments (provinces) from Colombia as case studies, it assesses enforcement of the country's main environmental law, Law 2111, which is one of Latin America's strongest. The article has

Lichen bleaching as a response to long‐term experimental warming in the High Arctic
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Lichens are an important component of Arctic ecosystems. Studies have indicated a decline in the abundance of Arctic lichens during recent decades, which is often attributed to competitive pressure from vascular plants.
