Abstract: Tropical reefs are highly diverse ecosystems, and reliable biomonitoring, through diet metabarcoding, is needed to understand present and future trophic relationships in this changing habitat. Several studies have assessed the reliability and effectiveness of single… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/ecog.04537
Abstract: Habitat dynamics interacting with species dispersal abilities could generate gradients in species diversity and prevalence of species traits when the latter are associated with species dispersal potential. Using a process-based model of diversification constrained by… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fmicb.2022.831710
Abstract: Biological soil crusts (BSCs/biocrusts), which are distributed across various climatic zones and well-studied in terrestrial drylands, harbor polyextremotolerant microbial topsoil communities and provide ecological service for local and global ecosystem. Here, we evaluated BSCs in… read more here.
