Abstract Dense beds of floating macrophytes can alter water quality by modifying dissolved oxygen (DO) and nitrogen (N) dynamics. Water chestnut (Trapa natans L.), a non‐native annual macrophyte, forms extensive seasonal beds in freshwater systems in North America. The species is intensively managed to reduce negative impacts on native species, yet its

Coexisting ant species differ in ability to meet their intrinsic nutritional needs
Coexisting species are often assumed to reduce competition by foraging for foods that differ in nutrient composition, but few studies test whether field nutritional differences correspond to intrinsic differences in macronutrient selectivity. We compared field estimates of worker trophic position (tissue isotopes: δ15N) and worker tissue stoichiometry (

The place bonding potential of nature‐based citizen science with refugee children and youth
Abstract Nature‐based citizen science often involves close interaction with places. In addition to providing benefits, such as learning opportunities and contact with nature, it can facilitate and shape bonds between people and places. Research exploring the place bonding potential of such projects is still in its infancy. This paper addresses this gap

There is an increasing risk of drought and salinisation of soil and groundwater globally, including in Pacific Island countries such as Tonga. Irrigating crops with slightly saline water, such as that produced by emerging desalination technologies, could help to alleviate droughts.
