Elevation shapes alpine snow algal blooms and their influence on albedo reduction
Graphical summary of elevational trends in Sanguina‐dominated snow algal blooms. Increasing elevation was associated with larger cells, lower Chla content per cell, higher astaxanthin ratios, lower snow water content, and reduced cell‐normalized albedo, whereas algal cell density showed no consistent elevational trend.

Rapid disruption of pollination function by the invasive plant Impatiens glandulifera
Invasion by Impatiens glandulifera rapidly disrupts pollination of the native plant Stachys sylvatica by altering pollen transport by shared bumblebee pollinators. A short‐term field introduction revealed a dramatic decline in conspecific pollen deposition within 4 days, showing that pollination function can collapse quickly following invasion, even ...

Clarifying the unseen: Assessment workload and time expectations for students in higher education
Abstract Transparency in assessment workload in higher education remains underexplored in research and policy. Students can only develop deep learning strategies and avoid surface learning when they have clear expectations about distribution of assessment workload and the required time investments. This study combines a scoping review of 50 articles to
