Mining is present in all major biomes worldwide and overlaps strongly with areas of importance for bird conservation. Mining causes multiple types of environmental disturbance, including habitat alteration, increased human presence and persistent heavy metal pollution. Feather coloration and fluctuating asymmetry (random deviation from perfect symmetry

Wet and dry extremes reduce arthropod biomass independently of leaf phenology in the wet tropics
Although two‐thirds of terrestrial vertebrates consume insects and spiders, how changing rainfall regimes will affect arthropods remains poorly understood. Using spatiotemporal variation in tropical montane climate as a natural experiment, we show arthropod biomass maxima at intermediate rainfall as 3 months of both wet and dry extremes reduced ...
