Reproductive phenology influences ecosystem functioning and climate sensitivity in tropical montane cloud forests, but phase‑specific climatic thresholds and the temporal coupling between flowering and fruiting remain poorly quantified over decadal scales. We analyzed a 36‑year monthly record (1983–2018) from a Venezuelan cloud forest (15 focal species)

We present evidence for two behaviors influenced by intact, vegetative plant odor -- upwind flight and abdomen curling -- in female Manduca sexta and demonstrate the influence of the age and mating status of the moths on these behaviors.

A nanostructured photonic‐thermal coating enables radiative‐cooling‐induced condensation and water harvesting, establishing a self‐sustaining agrivoltaics microclimate loop that transforms PV panels into active climate regulators. The integration of photovoltaic (PV) panels into agricultural landscapes (i.e., agrivoltaics) offers a promising path for ...

In 1996, an old forest pasture grazed from the 1960s to 1988 was restored by coppicing, fencing and grazing by cattle to protect a local population of the endangered butterfly Euphydryas aurinia. An adjoining ungrazed meadow provided a control.

Abstract This article advances three claims regarding the matrilineal organization of Wiradjuri society in central New South Wales. Drawing on the late nineteenth and early twentieth century ethnographic record, it demonstrates that Wiradjuri descent, totem, moiety identity, and ceremonial authority were and are matrilineally organized, despite ...

Increased migration of Lepidoptera linked to climate change
The number of species of migratory Lepidoptera (moths and butterflies) reported each year at a site in the south of the UK has been rising steadily. This number is very strongly linked to rising temperatures in SW Europe.

Pollinator risks and recovery from air pollutant interactions during the fossil‐fuel transition
By altering the composition and concentration of floral scents, air pollutants such as ozone (O3) and nitrogen oxides (NOx) disrupt the ability of insect pollinators to locate flowers, threatening biodiversity and crop production. We examine the impact of these pollutants on pollinator performance and evaluate the short‐ and long‐term consequences of ...

An Aboriginal woman was walking in a city street. It is suburban Melbourne. She has bought a small axe from the hardware store. To her this axe is a traditional woman’s tool. She paid for the axe. She has not done anything wrong. She has broken no laws. She is no threat to herself or to any other person. An armed policeman challenges her.

For patients to benefit from abdominal point‐of‐care ultrasound, the ultrasound examinator must be sufficiently trained. In this systematic review, we identified advantages and disadvantages of different training methods and approaches. We conclude that thoughtful integration of the various educational methods is crucial for stakeholders and educators.
