Incorporating soil biological and functional attributes to advance ecological restoration
Earth is currently experiencing a mass extinction crisis, predominantly driven by anthropogenic activities, with land use change causing widespread loss and degradation of native ecosystems and indigenous species. There is an urgent need to halt this trend and restore degraded habitat to preserve biodiversity and protect threatened plants and animals ...

High levels of intraspecific genetic divergences revealed for Antarctic springtails: evidence for small-scale isolation during Pleistocene glaciation [PDF]
We examined levels of genetic variability within and among populations of three Antarctic springtail species (Arthropoda: Collembola) and tested the hypothesis that genetic divergences occur among glacially-isolated habitats.

As the frequency and intensity of extreme heat events are increasing, it is urgently important to understand how organisms respond to and recover from heat stress. Here we extend the existing Thermal Death Time framework to include the antagonistic processes of accumulation and repair of thermal injury, which operate at stressful and permissive ...

Multiscale Acoustic Bubble Actuators Using Bioinspired Liquid‐Repellent Microstructures
The article presents multiscale acoustic bubble actuators using bioinspired liquid‐repellent microstructures, enabling programmable trapping, pumping, mixing, and precise flow control. Mimicking springtail microstructures, these scalable actuators (200 µm–1 mm) offer multifunctionality in all‐in‐one devices, letter‐shaped arrays, and 3D cube ...

Abundance of Soil Arthropods Under Reduced Tillage and Bagasse Mulching in a Sugarcane Plantation in Central Lampung, Indonesia [PDF]
This study was aimed to show whether conservation effort through reduced tillage or mulching can promote soil zoological benefits, especially to the soil arthropods in sugarcane plantations area, Central Lampung, Indonesia. Twenty sugarcane plots of 25 m

Delimiting species of Protaphorura (Collembola: Onychiuridae): integrative evidence based on morphology, DNA sequences and geography. [PDF]
This is the final version of the article. Available from Nature Publishing Group via the DOI in this record.Species delimitation remains a significant challenge when the diagnostic morphological characters are limited. Integrative taxonomy was applied to

ABSTRACT The piscicide antimycin has been used as an effective fish toxicant to eradicate nuisance fishes because it is not as detectable by fish as other chemical piscicides. We evaluated the effects of antimycin and its detoxicant, potassium permanganate, on periphyton and benthic macroinvertebrates during a brook trout (Salvelinus fontinalis ...
