Integrating climate change, biological invasions, and infectious wildlife diseases
Climate change is likely to affect infectious diseases that are facilitated by biological invasions, with repercussions for wildlife conservation and zoonotic risks. Current invasion management and policy are underprepared for the future risks associated with such invasion‐related wildlife diseases. By considering evidence from bioclimatology, invasion

Biochar‐based fertilizers increase crop yields in acidic tropical soils
Abstract Depletion of soil organic carbon and nutrients creates mounting challenges for agricultural production in tropical regions, putting livelihoods and food security at risk. Biochar‐based fertilizer (BBF) has been suggested as a tool to maintain yields while concurrently improving soil organic carbon content and related soil functions. This study

Temporal Dynamics of a Neotropical Plant‐Hummingbird Interaction Network
Using an unprecedented sampling effort we evaluated network structure and dynamics of plant‐hummingbird interactions over 1 year in the Brazilian hyperdiverse Campos Rupestres. Network structure presented remarkable temporal change, showing that tropical communities can also be strongly influenced by climate.
