ICYMI: New online! Making partial differential equations accessible to ecologists

ICYMI: New online! Conservation practice must catch up with commitments to local people for 30 × 30 success

Global insect invasions are increasing, driven by advances in globalization and technology. A Review in Nature Reviews Biodiversity discusses the effects of increasing trade and transport on insect invasions worldwide, and strategies for mitigation. https://go.nature.com/3X6QkHk

New online! Harnessing artificial intelligence to fill global shortfalls in biodiversity knowledge

New online! Quantifying species interactions in the Anthropocene

New online! Tell us what inspires you

New online! Empirical evidence of the host–parasite arms race

New online! Conservation practice must catch up with commitments to local people for 30 × 30 success

This month, we also also introduce the Journal Club format, offering early-career researchers the chance to tell the wider community about an article that they find especially influential. Our Editorial explaining the format can be found here go.nature.com/42YA3If and our first Journal Clubs below!

First up in our February issue, the Review that inspired our cover art. Bertelsmeier and colleagues discuss the effects of increasing trade and transport on insect invasions worldwide, and strategies for mitigation of future insect invasions. go.nature.com/4hEx8ZY

We are thrilled to share our second issue with the world - very fitting given the globalization theme to our cover this month! 🥳 We hope you enjoy the articles within. https://bit.ly/41i0O9l

ICYMI: New online! Current and future challenges to conservation translocations

On #InternationalDayofWomenandGirlsinScience let me remind you that we are NOWHERE NEAR parity. A few examples. 1. Women are credited less in science than men. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

ICYMI: New online! Temporal dynamics and global flows of insect invasions in an era of globalization

New online! Current and future challenges to conservation translocations

1/3 Associate Professor Tatsuya Amano (@tatsuya-amano.bsky.social) and Postdoctoral Research Fellow Dr Violeta Berdejo-Espinola have published a paper in Nature Reviews Biodiversity titled "Assessing diverse values of nature requires multilingual evidence". Read the article here:

One day late for #worldwetlandsday, but if you're still in the wetlands mood check out this recent Review on coastal wetlands: www.nature.com/articles/s44...

This is a nice example of two-eyed seeing – a research approach using partnered western and Indigenous experience – informing conservation. In this case, biodiversity monitoring on Yáláƛi in Haíɫzaqv territory. 🌎 🧪 news.mongabay.com/2025/02/indi...

ICYMI: "Wildlife’s contributions to people" 🌎 🧪

Papers like this really underscore the importance of long term monitoring datasets for understanding climate change impacts on biodiversity... And highlight the dire consequences of even modest temperature increases. 🧪🌍🦤🦜 www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

The first ever US national nature assessment has been terminated and its USGCRP and DOI webpages have been removed. A PDF of the zeroth order draft is still available here: review.globalchange.gov/system/files...

Out now in @nature.com! Our comprehensive meta-analysis of global terrestrial and marine genetic diversity demonstrates rapid loss of genetic diversity and identifies conservation interventions that could mitigate this process www.nature.com/articles/s41... 🧪🌍🦤🧬 #consgen #PopGen

Our new Nature paper on the multi-dimensional contributions of small scale fisheries just dropped www.nature.com/articles/s41.... We find that SSF supply ~40% of global fish catch worth >$77billion, with knock on benefits that support numerous sustainable development goals. A truly monumental effort

Hot on the heels of the content for our January issue, we've already got two new papers online today!

Wildlife’s benefits to people’s daily lives are underrepresented in science and policy discussions, an omission that @worldwildlife.org researchers and ESPM professor @ornithoale.bsky.social say could have detrimental consequences for achieving global conservation targets. nature.berkeley.edu/...

Our new paper in Nature Reviews Biodiversity @natrevbiodiv.bsky.social calls for a greater recognition of wildlife’s contributions to global biodiversity, led by @beckyck.bsky.social @ornithoale.bsky.social @kimberlynicholas.bsky.social and many amazing others! Link: www.nature.com/articles/s44...

In Issue 1, we have reviews on: - Grid enhancing technologies 🔌 - Lithium ion battery recycling ♻️ - Flash Joule heating ⚡ - Solar driven evaporation technologies 🌅 - Stakeholder heterogeneity in carbon dioxide removal 👥 www.nature.com/nrct/volumes...

Looks like a great read!

Nice summary from WWF about the Perspective published yesterday in our journal. #biodiversity 🌎https://www.nature.com/articles/s44358-024-00006-9
