Overlooking capacity of large females may lead to overharvest.

Study finds that Indigenous Territories are as effective as Protected Areas in preserving forest's carbon stocks

Pollinating insects such as bees, butterflies, hoverflies and wasps, interact more with plants at well-managed farmland ponds than those that are severely overgrown by trees, finds a new study led by UCL researchers.

One of the big unknowns about the future Arctic is whether plant communities around the Northern Hemisphere will continue to increase their carbon uptake as atmospheric CO2 rises.

Disappearing habitats and use of pesticides are driving the loss of pollinator species around the world, posing a threat to “ecosystem services” that provide food and wellbeing to many millions – particularly in the Global South – as well as billions of dollars in crop productivity.

While methane concentrations are well observed, emissions have to be inferred based on a variety of factors.

A new study suggests that crop insurance serves as a disincentive for farmers to adopt climate change mitigation measures on their croplands.

Experiments showed that the absence of carbonic anhydrase did not interfere with photosynthesis, contrary to previously held views.

Forests are not only key to moderating our climate by sequestering atmospheric carbon, but they also create a cooling effect by increasing low-level cloud.

Fires in the country have consumed five times as much land as they do in an average year.
