A regional benthic fauna assessment method for the Southern North Sea using Margalef diversity and reference value modelling [PDF]

, 2018
The aims of this study are to develop an optimized method for regional benthic fauna assessment of the Southern North Sea which (a) is sensitive and precise (quantified as the slope and the R2 value of the pressure-impact relationships, respectively) for

Environmental DNA quantifies the terrestrial biodiversity co‐benefit of forested riparian buffers in agricultural landscapes

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 62, Issue 12, Page 3469-3479, December 2025.
We demonstrate that eDNA metabarcoding has the potential to rapidly quantify the benefits of agricultural conservation to terrestrial wildlife across taxa. Notably, we found that riparian buffers along streams in the Midwestern United States return an increase of one taxon for every 10% increase in forest cover, an important potential benefit of this ...

The Little Ice Age: The History and Future of a Traveling Concept

WIREs Climate Change, Volume 16, Issue 5, September/October 2025.
Since its inception, the “Little Ice Age” has grown into one of the most discussed “traveling concepts” in climate science, history, and communication. This article investigates the contested history and the potential uses of the “Little Ice Age” as a scientific boundary object.

Borealisation of Plant Communities in the Arctic Is Driven by Boreal‐Tundra Species

Ecology Letters, Volume 28, Issue 9, September 2025.
We found limited borealisation rates across the tundra biome. However, borealisation was greater in Eurasia, closer to the treeline, at higher elevations, in warmer and wetter regions, where climate change was limited and where initial boreal abundance was lower. Boreal species colonised tundra plots less often than Boreal‐Tundra species.
