Long‐term population dynamics of an insect in a simple food web under a changing environment
This long‐term population study illustrates the complexity of weather effects on insects and how population variability depends on the form of density dependence. Weak regulation leads to long‐term fluctuations without clear traces on short‐term variation. Responses to even drastic changes can be hard to detect without accurate knowledge of mechanisms.

Constraining Planetary Albedo of JWST Targets in the TESS bandpass, using TESS, HST and Spitzer Eclipse Depth Observations [PDF]
Albedo is one of the important characteristics of hot Jupiter exoplanets. However, albedo constraints have been obtained for very few exoplanets. In this work, we present the TESS Phase Curve observations of WASP-18b, WASP-19b, WASP-121b, WASP-43b, WASP-17b, and WASP-77b, all JWST targets for atmospheric characterization and constrain their occultation

Microbial Community Dynamics in Natural Drosophila melanogaster Populations Across Seasons
The characterisation of fungal and bacterial communities associated with three field populations of Drosophila melanogaster in Germany revealed consistent but also population‐specific changes across seasons. The seasonal microbiota variation was mostly driven by indicator species of Acetobacteraceae bacteria and Saccharomycetales yeasts.

Abstract Circadian rhythms are self‐sustained endogenous oscillations that are found in all living organisms. In insects, circadian rhythms control a wide variety of behavioral and physiological processes, including feeding, locomotion, mating, and metabolism.
