Bessere Luftqualität erwärmt die Erde: Aerosole und Klima
Aerosolpartikel in der Atmosphäre wirken kühlend auf das Klima, weil sie Sonnenlicht reflektieren und auch Wolken mehr reflektieren lassen. Eine Verbesserung der Luftqualität wirkt deswegen, relativ gesehen, erwärmend. Auch Niederschlagsmuster ändern sich.ZusammenfassungAerosole wirken abkühlend auf das Klima, weil sie Sonnenlicht reflektieren und auch

Antbears and underground melons: A highly specialized seed dispersal mutualism mediated by scent
Seed dispersal is critical for the establishment and persistence of populations of most plant species. We investigated the seed dispersal biology of an African melon, Cucumis humifructus, which is closely related to cultivated cucumbers and watermelons but differs in that it buries its fruits deep underground.

The primarily neotropical plant genus Heliconia has been cultivated commercially in gardens and nurseries for hundreds of years. Many of these same species are ecological keystones in their native habitats as important resources for herbivorous insects and pollinating hummingbirds, yet they face threats of habitat loss and degradation, competition with

Phylogenomic insights into the origin of the Norton grape
Challenges in viticulture such as disease resistance have renewed interest in underutilized cultivars. The Norton grape, one of the earliest popular North American grape cultivars, holds the potential to produce exceptional wine while being resistant to pests and disease. Yet, the ancestry of the Norton grape is controversial.

Incidental pollination by passing animals: An overlooked mechanism?
The conservation of pollinators is essential for sustaining the ecosystem services of pollen transfer, which support crop production, biodiversity conservation and ecosystem health. While primary pollinators have been the focus of most conservation efforts, subordinate or incidental pollinators have been largely overlooked.
