Multiple indicators record human adaptations to climatic change during the Middle Holocene at the Wanbei site in the middle and lower Huai River valley, China

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
The archaeological sediment sequences analysis from the Wanbei site reveals a predominantly warm and humid climate with a brief cooling phase between 5600 and 5400 a BP, during the Middle Holocene in the middle and lower Huai River valley. Despite the cooling trend, rice remained the dominant crop in mixed farming, while the proportion of millet ...

Diverse circular single-stranded DNA viruses discovered from research greenhouses and agro-ecosystems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
This study focuses on the diversity of circular single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) viruses associated with Poaceae growing in the fynbos ecosystem and its neighbouring agroecosystems in the Cape floristic region of Southern Africa.

Persistence and dynamic of forest snails in the Western Carpathians over the last 40 thousand years

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
The glacial/interglacial cycles have shaped the landscape of temperate Europe for the past 2.5 million years, with open landscapes prevailing during the glacial and forested landscapes during the interglacial periods. However, the survival and recolonization strategies of temperate forest species during glacial phases remain poorly understood and hotly

Harnessing community science and open research‐based data to track distributions of invasive species in Japan

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Information gaps about invasive alien species (IAS) distributions hinder local governments in Japan, where many prefectures still lack official lists. This study shows that open research‐based data (ORD, GBIF.org) from museums and herbaria and community science data (CSD, Biome and iNaturalist) from volunteers can substantially reduce these gaps.

Effect of land use change on Melolonthidae (Coleoptera: Scarabaeoidea) beetle communities in the deforestation arc of the Brazilian Amazon

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Habitat transformation in Amazon due to agriculture expansion impairs Melolonthidae diversity. Assemblage response towards habitat transformation are group‐dependent. Although highly disturbed, Amazon arc of deforestation region dwells sensitive insect assemblages. Abstract Although the Amazon provides crucial goods and ecosystem services for humanity,

Arthropod niche differentiation linked to grazing‐induced sward islets in intensively managed agricultural pasture

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
In a given number of samples, grassland sward islets contain more species of arthropods than the surrounding sward. When corrected for abundance, there is no difference in species richness, suggesting that the effect of islets might purely be to concentrate arthropods. The community structure differences indicated by non‐metric multidimensional scaling
