The change in the frequency of wet spells in tropical Australia in summer primarily contributes to the change in precipitation between wet and dry years. In the extratropics, both the frequency and intensity of wet spells are important, especially in winter.

Breaking down seagrass fragmentation in a marine heatwave impacted World Heritage Area
Habitat fragmentation can exacerbate the impacts of habitat loss but is rarely quantified in marine environments. Using satellite‐derived habitat maps, we identify widespread seagrass fragmentation following a marine heatwave that contributed to a dramatic shift in seascape structure in the Shark Bay World Heritage Area.

We combined arboreal camera trapping and non‐invasive genetic tagging to estimate group size in the critically endangered northern muriqui (Brachyteles hypoxanthus) in Brazil's Atlantic Forest. Both methods provided complementary insights into group size and demographic structure, while differing in their cost‐effectiveness and sampling constraints ...

The role of tropical forests in supporting biodiversity and hydrological integrity: a synoptic overview [PDF]
Conservation of high-biodiversity tropical forests is sometimes justified on the basis of assumed hydrological benefits - in particular, the reduction of flooding hazards for downstream floodplain populations.
