A new study in Nature Climate Change has found that, left unchecked, the combined effects of deforestation and human-induced climate change could eliminate Madagascar’s entire eastern rainforest habitat by 2070, impacting thousands of plants, mammals, reptiles, and amphibians that are endemic to the island nation. 

The rare type of freshwater bog shares space with red wolves and bomb targets on the Albemarle-Pamlico Peninsula in North Carolina.

Mealworms are not only able to eat various forms of plastic, as previous research has shown, they can consume potentially toxic plastic additives in Styrofoam with no ill effects, a new study shows. The worms can then be used as a safe, protein-rich feed supplement.

DNA-based biomonitoring relies on species-specific segments of organisms DNA for their taxonomic identification and is rapidly advancing for monitoring invertebrate communities across a variety of ecosystems.

In a time of global climate uncertainty and growing populations, reliance on alternative sources of drinking waters is ever-increasing.

A new study found that rotating organic crop and livestock production on the same land didn’t pose significant food safety risks.

Maps of forest cover type show where the composition and structure of the forest is sufficient for the threatened species to nest and roost.

Team investigated the chemical’s interaction with symbiotic microorganisms that inhabit coral reefs.

Research on global biodiversity has long assumed that present-day biodiversity patterns reflect present-day factors, namely contemporary climate and human activities.

Life cycles for birds, insects and trees are shifting in this current era of a rapidly changing climate. How migration patterns, in particular, are changing and whether birds can track climate change is an open question.
