Many trees depend on animals for seed dispersal, and human activities that disrupt seed dispersal by animals may impact forest regeneration and carbon storage. Yet whether expected negative impacts are observable across regrowing forests remains untested. We modeled... by ACC Admin | May 19, 2025 | 2025, Peer Reviewed Scientific Paper, Resources, Technical / Scientific

Although the role of marine macrofauna in the ocean carbon cycle is increasingly understood, the cumulative impacts of fisheries and climate change on this pathway remain overlooked. Here, using a marine ecosystem model, we estimate that each degree of warming reduces... by ACC Admin | May 7, 2025 | 2025, Peer Reviewed Scientific Paper, Resources, Technical / Scientific
Nathan James Roberts Abishek Harihar Xuhui Zhou Wen She Guangshun Jiang Tiger (Panthera tigris) survival, as apex predators in forest ecosystems, largely depends on abundant prey in healthy, intact forests. Because large herbivore prey are drivers of plant biomass, we... by ACC Admin | May 1, 2025 | 2025, Peer Reviewed Scientific Paper, Resources, Technical / Scientific
