Subtle stressors—Strong responses. Consistent negative effects of avian blood parasites on phenotypic and demographic traits across songbirds

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Avian blood parasites are widespread and often considered benign, yet mounting evidence suggests they subtly impair host traits. This meta‐analysis is timely and necessary to quantify their true impact across systems, challenging assumptions and highlighting overlooked consequences for fitness and population dynamics. Abstract Stressors that subtly yet

Guild diversity impacts demographic outcomes of novel species interactions following range shifts

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
This study applies the theory of biotic resistance, a common concept in invasion ecology, to the world of climate driven range shifts, and finds support that biotic resistance may create a life‐stage dependent benefit to resident species, alleviating the competitive impacts of range shifters on native communities.

Water‐saving strategies in rice farming entail cascading effects in prey–predator interactions across ecosystem boundaries

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, EarlyView.
These results show that introducing multiple drainage periods in rice fields (i.e. AWD) indirectly hampers terrestrial spider reproduction through limiting the emergence of potential preys from the aquatic to terrestrial boundaries. MSD resulted in a more conciliatory strategy as it largely reduces methane emissions and does not affect predator–prey ...

Projecting a long‐term healthcare expenditure in the United States: Do climate change, globalization, and technological innovation play a major role?

open access: yesNatural Resources Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Recognizing the paramount importance of health, the United Nations Development Program has outlined sustainable development goals, emphasizing Goal 3, which focuses on ensuring and promoting healthy lives and well‐being for all. Consequently, this study delves into the determinants of healthcare expenditure (HCE), specifically focusing on ...

Differential gene expression in Chorthippus parallelus (Zetterstedt, 1821) (Orthoptera: Acrididae: Gomphocerinae) induced by Wolbachia infection

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Distinct lineages of the grasshopper Chorthippus parallelus (Orthoptera: Acrididae) form a well‐known hybrid zone (HZ) in the Pyrenees mountain range; the Iberian endemism C. p. erythropus (Cpe) and the subspecies C. p. parallelus, (Cpp) widely distributed throughout the rest of Europe. Both subspecies differ in diverse traits, including the strains of
