"Marine calcifiers produce calcareous structures (e.g. shells, skeletons or tests) and are therefore sensitive to ocean chemistry. Nevertheless, the long-term evolutionary consequences of marine carbonate changes are not well understood. This article compares calcareous and non-calcareous responses...
Last day of the IRATE workshop in Erlangen. See the happy faces! Looks like everybody had a good time and hopefully fruitful discussions... can't wait to see the outcomes published ^^ (no pressure at all ;))
"Digital information media such as outdoor platforms (often referred to as outdoor apps) offer a direct means of communication and interaction with recreationists. This harbours potential, but also poses new challenges for nature conservation. For example, protected areas and the rules that apply t...
"Terrestrial ecosystems underwent extreme shifts in composition, following extensive degassing associated with the Siberian Traps near the Permian–Triassic boundary (PTB). These climatic perturbations are recorded in land plant macrofossil assemblages, which reflect complex changes in major biomes ...
"One of the main objectives of ecological research is to enhance our understanding of the processes that lead to species extinction. A potentially crucial extinction pattern is the dependence of contemporary biodiversity dynamics on past climates, also known as “climate legacy”. However, the genera...
"The future of tropical coral reefs is severely threatened by rising global temperatures and relies on the persistence of two key attributes: (a) coral biodiversity, and (b) the reef-building capacity. In order to understand how these attributes responded to a climate warming, we investigated coral...
"Current research on microplastics (MPs) primarily focuses on investigating environmental samples, often lacking in identifying the actual sources and emission quantities. Little is known about the quantity of bicycle tire abrasion in real-use scenarios. Mountain biking, a popular outdoor sport pro...
"Background
Human pressures are driving the emergence of unprecedented, ‘novel’, ecological and environmental systems. The concept of novel (eco)systems is well accepted by the scientific community, but the use and measurement of novelty has outgrown initial definitions and critiques. There are ...
