Microsecond X‐ray reflectometry

open access: yesJournal of Applied Crystallography, EarlyView.
X‐ray reflectometry is accelerated to 213 µs net exposure time using galvanometer scanning, which enables unprecedented temporal resolution for studying dynamic thin‐film processes.We accelerate synchrotron X‐ray reflectometry (XRR) by more than an order of magnitude and demonstrate the acquisition of full reflectivity curves within 213 µs over a qz ...

Digging into dirt: Rewilding with threatened mammals shapes soil‐emerging insect assemblages

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
By comparing insect communities across treatments at two time points, we show that reintroduced digging mammals shape soil‐emerging insect assemblages. This provides empirical evidence that restoring ecosystem engineers may drive broader community‐level change in semi‐arid ecosystems. Abstract Digging mammals function as ecosystem engineers by altering

Warming increases trophic cascade strength in an aquatic food chain

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Using experiments and Bayesian dynamical modelling, we demonstrate that warming strengthens trophic cascades in an aquatic food chain through coordinated, temperature‐dependent shifts in predator, prey and resource traits. By tracing indirect effects to underlying mechanisms, our study shows how climate change can amplify predator impacts and ...

Assessment of large‐scale spatial variation in age‐specific survival and age at first breeding in a long‐lived species

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Using nationwide data from over 92,000 individuals, we reveal large‐scale spatio‐temporal variation in age‐dependent survival and age at first breeding in a long‐lived species. By comparing alternative spatial models, we show that demographic variation follows a biologically meaningful spatial structure, with implications for population dynamics ...

Genetic and phenotypic variation in wood tiger moths from the Caucasus: insights into male warning color variation

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Coloration serves several fitness‐related functions, including thermoregulation, immunity, social signaling, sexual selection, and predator avoidance. Consequently, color polymorphism can have a significant impact on a species’ interactions with its environment, including its relationships with predators, prey, and potential mates. The wood tiger moth (

Edges as ecological filters: Asymmetrical orientation‐specific arthropod activity across forest boundaries

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Moderate retention forestry creates structurally sharp forest edges that act as ecological filters, shaping orientation‐specific activity of ground‐dwelling arthropods. Using drift‐fence pitfall traps, we show that activity aligned with ecotones is more frequent than activity across forest–clearcut boundaries, particularly among detritivores.

Mainland diversification and recent island lineages in the reduviid genus Tapirocoris: an integrative taxonomic framework with four new species

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Using an integrative taxonomic framework that combines COI DNA barcodes, geometric morphometrics and phylogeography, we revise the assassin bug genus Tapirocoris and recover seven well‐supported species, including four newly described cryptic species.

Resource Availability and Habitat Quality Drive Time‐Lag Effects in High‐Altitude Ungulate Distribution

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Our analysis revealed that while climate strongly influenced species distributions, habitat change drove most observed delays in distribution responses. In terms of community ecology, dispersed communities exhibited shorter time lags than concentrated groups. Analyses of lag duration revealed a 5–6‐year distribution lag effect in high‐altitude ungulate
