Published in 2025 at "Scientific Reports"

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-025-05621-w

Abstract: Global warming affects the Earth system in complex ways, often preventing a functional understanding of the underlying processes. Disentangling these processes between abiotic drivers and single species or entire communities is, however, essential for an… read more here.
