The UK Pollinator Monitoring Scheme (PoMS), which engages thousands of citizen scientists to record insects on surveys across the UK countryside and gardens, is emphasising the value of having a wide range of plants and habitats to support a diverse range of pollinators.

Emily Williams, an ecologist at the UK Centre for Ecology & Hydrology, discusses a project to tackle invasive non-native species on the Falkland Islands, which included a recent visit to share knowledge with local experts.

While emerging evidence suggests pesticides can be toxic to the mix of microorganisms in the digestive system, a new study is the first to map changes to specific gut bacteria based on interactions between human microbes and insect-killing chemicals observed in the lab and an animal model.

Antibiotic-resistant bacteria pose a growing threat to food crops and livestock, but promising new methods to destroy them are being introduced by a synthetic biology researcher at Flinders University, who has been awarded a prestigious ARC Laureate Fellowship.

A major discovery by an interdisciplinary team of experts in green chemistry, engineering and physics at Flinders University in Australia has found a safer and more sustainable approach to extract and recover gold from ore and electronic waste.

A new study challenges recent claims about dramatic “greening” in Antarctica and how this conflicts with decades of field-based ecological knowledge.

From New York to Paris to Beijing, urban trees are enjoying an extra-long growing season, a new study finds.

New research shows how a shipboard system using limestone and seawater could cut maritime CO2 emissions by 50%.

The chemical reaction to produce hydrogen from water is several times more effective when using a combination of new materials in three layers, according to researchers at Linköping University.

Scientists for the first time have detected a slow slip earthquake in motion during the act of releasing tectonic pressure on a major fault zone at the bottom of the ocean.
