Environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding (parallel sequencing of DNA/RNA for
identification of whole communities within a targeted group) is revolutionizing the field of …

Analyses of sedimentary DNA (sedDNA) have increased exponentially over the last decade
and hold great potential to study the effects of anthropogenic stressors on lake biota over …

During the last glacial–interglacial cycle, Arctic biotas experienced substantial climatic
changes, yet the nature, extent and rate of their responses are not fully understood …

What drives ecosystem buildup, diversity, and stability? We assess species arrival and
ecosystem changes across 16 millennia by combining regional-scale plant sedimentary …

Animals and plants worldwide are structured in global biogeographic regions, which were
shaped by major geologic forces during Earth history. Recently, humans have changed the …

Abstract During the Pleistocene-Holocene transition, the dominant mammoth steppe
ecosystem across northern Eurasia vanished, in parallel with megafauna extinctions …

In‐depth knowledge about spatial and temporal variation in microbial diversity and function
is needed for a better understanding of ecological and evolutionary responses to global …

Anthropogenic activities are triggering global changes in the environment, causing entire
communities of plants, pollinators and their interactions to restructure, and ultimately leading …

Non-indigenous species may pose a threat to native ecosystems worldwide. In aquatic
environments, invasives may have a negative impact on human food security and …

The effects of climate change on species richness are debated but can be informed by the
past. Here, we generated a sedimentary ancient DNA dataset covering 10 lakes and applied …
