DOI: 10.1002/ece3.9134
Abstract: Abstract Soil microarthropods have a pivotal role in soil nitrogen cycling in that they affect microbial decomposers. A high abundance of microarthropods may increase the mobility of inorganic nitrogen ions in the soil, mainly in… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.landurbplan.2018.05.030
Abstract: Abstract We hypothesize that lower public visibility of residential backyards reduces households’ desire for social conformity, which alters residential land management and produces differences in ecological composition and function between front and backyards. Using lawn… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-021-00697-6
Abstract: Symbiosis with unicellular algae in the family Symbiodiniaceae is common across tropical marine invertebrates. Reef-building corals offer a clear example of cellular dysfunction leading to a dysbiosis that disrupts entire ecosystems in a process termed… read more here.
