Every year, many wild animals undertake long-distance migration to breed in the north,
taking advantage of seasonally high pulses in food supply, fewer parasites, and lower …

A rigorous synthesis of the sea-ice ecosystem and linked ecosystem services highlights that
the sea-ice ecosystem supports all 4 ecosystem service categories, that sea-ice ecosystems …

Highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) viruses of the A/Goose/Guangdong/1/1996
lineage (GsGd), which threaten the health of poultry, wildlife and humans, are spreading …

As human density increases, biodiversity must increasingly co-exist with urbanization or face
local extinction. Tolerance of urban areas has been linked to numerous functional traits, yet …

The ecoevolutionary drivers of species niche expansion or contraction are critical for
biodiversity but challenging to infer. Niche expansion may be promoted by local adaptation …

Highly pathogenic avian influenza virus (HPAIV) H5N1 was introduced in North America in
late 2021 through trans-Atlantic pathways via migratory birds. These introductions have …

The recent panzootic of Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI) A (H5N1) has affected
hundreds of thousands of wild birds around the world. Here, we analyze the outcomes of the …

Animal coloration is one of the most conspicuous aspects of human-perceived organismal
diversity, yet also one of the least understood. In particular, explaining why species have …

In many regions of the world, forest management has reduced old forest and simplified forest
structure and composition. We hypothesized that such forest degradation has resulted in …

Species differ in their biological susceptibility to extinction, but the set of traits determining
susceptibility varies across taxa. It is yet unclear which patterns are common to all taxa, and …
