Abstract Remote sensing studies show that ephemeral forest regeneration is widespread in the tropics, limiting the climate and biodiversity benefits from net increases in forest cover. Socioeconomic, biophysical and landscape variables can help explain the spatial distribution of reforestation reversals.

Emerging Synaptic Molecules as Candidates in the Etiology of Neurological Disorders
Synapses are complex structures that allow communication between neurons in the central nervous system. Studies conducted in vertebrate and invertebrate models have contributed to the knowledge of the function of synaptic proteins. The functional synapse

High Densities of Large Herbivores Rapidly Disrupt Ecosystem Integrity
Human‐driven increases in large herbivore populations are emerging as a widespread global change pressure on terrestrial ecosystems. Using the largest hectare‐scale herbivore density manipulation experiment conducted to date, we show that high deer densities rapidly disrupt ecosystem integrity across multiple dimensions of biodiversity and ecosystem ...

Our findings show that management strategies can create fundamentally different seed dispersal regimes, even under similar environmental conditions. Anthropogenic diversification reshapes network organisation into distinct structural configurations, rather than consistently enhancing overall cohesion.

WOUNDS IN UTOPIA: The Politics of Gay Football in 4T Mexico
ABSTRACT LGBT+ football teams have proliferated in Mexico in recent years, allowing communities who previously struggled with feeling at the margins of the nation to make new claims to respectability and national belonging. At the same time, these have developed surprising alliances with political parties, blurring in some cases the relationships of ...

Understory frog communities recover quickly during tropical forest regeneration
Abstract Millions of hectares of tropical forest have been lost to agriculture, posing a major threat to biodiversity. However, where agricultural activities do not cause irreversible damage, forests can regenerate after abandonment, forming secondary forests that are increasingly important for conserving forest species.

Phytochemical diversity of naturally regenerated plants in a biodiversity enrichment experiment
Tree islands established within an industrial oil palm plantation promoted the recovery of phytochemical diversity through natural regeneration. Ten years after planting, untargeted metabolomics of 76 regenerating woody species detected 27,122 phytochemical features, including many novel compounds. Larger islands supported higher woody species richness

Understanding Alzheimer’s Disease Through Neurodevelopment: Insights from Human Cerebral Organoids
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder and the leading cause of dementia, for which there is currently no cure. The causes of AD are still not well understood, although 5% of cases are known to have a genetic origin ...

Tent‐roosting bats in the Lacandon Forest, Mexico, play a previously undocumented role in dispersing large seeds (> 5 mm) from mature forest species with important ecological and human uses. Sampling 21 feeding tents across two protected areas yielded 2137 seeds from 54 species, with seed deposition rates significantly higher under bat tents than in ...
