A link between increased temperature and avian body condition in a logged tropical forest
Abstract The combined effects of anthropogenic disturbances, such as logging and climate change, remain poorly understood; yet, they are the main threats to tropical biodiversity. Most tropical African countries lack long‐term climate data, so climate impacts on biodiversity cannot be assessed.

Distribution, scale, and drivers of mass mortality events in Europe's freshwater bivalves
Abstract Mass mortality events (MMEs) are decimating populations and compromising key ecosystem functions around the globe. One taxon particularly vulnerable to MMEs is freshwater bivalve mollusks. This group has important ecosystem engineering capacities and includes highly threatened and highly invasive taxa.

LAS TEMPERATURAS EN EL CAMPO DE CARTAGENA (1940-1981)
En el estudio de las temperaturas del Campo de Cartagena hemos analizado no sólo las medias anuales, sino también la distribución mensual de las medias, las máximas y las mínimas absolutas, así como las oscilaciones térmicas, las heladas, los contrastes ...

Representation of obligate groundwater‐dwelling copepod diversity in European protected areas
Abstract Groundwaters sustain diverse surface ecosystems and are populated by metazoan species, mostly invertebrates, that provide fundamental ecological functions and are often of prominent conservation value due to narrow endemism and high phylogenetic rarity.

Oscilación ártica y temperaturas en el occidente de Cuba
En el presente trabajo se analiza la influencia de las fases de la Oscilación Ártica (AO, por sus siglas en inglés) en el comportamiento de las temperaturas mínima y máxima en el occidente de Cuba durante las temporadas invernales del período 1980-2011 ...

Magnetic and electrical properties in Co-doped KNbO3 bulk samples
Multiferroic materials exhibit in the same phase at least two of the ferroic properties: ferroelectricity, ferromagnetism, and ferroelasticity, which may be coupled to each other.

The highlands of eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) are home to critically endangered eastern gorillas (Gorilla beringei). Climate change could increase the abundance and distribution of Culicoides‐borne diseases. We utilized morphological and molecular techniques to identify Culicoides spp.

The height at which epiphytic bromeliads are found affects the invertebrate community composition within them. The size of epiphytic bromeliads is positively correlated with species richness of both aquatic and terrestrial invertebrates. Whether bromeliads were found in primary or secondary forest did not have a significant effect on the community of ...
