Dr Katrin Schmidt is among the authors of a study which reveals for the first time that zooplankton migration contributes significantly to carbon sequestration.

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.

Climate change and habitat loss are affecting animal populations around the world and reptiles such as South Australia’s own endangered pygmy bluetongue are susceptible to higher temperatures and declining long-term rainfall trends.

Despite having identical genetic instructions, female honey bee larvae can develop into either long-lived reproductive queens or short-lived sterile workers who help rear their sisters rather than laying their own eggs.

New study reveals how Antarctic seals are responding to shifts in Antarctic sea ice and what long term changes could mean for their future survival.

A University of Queensland-led project has developed a tool to standardise genetic testing of koala populations, providing a significant boost to conservation and recovery efforts.

Antarctic krill is a key species in the Antarctic marine ecosystem: it is an important food source for many species, such as whales, seals and penguins.

Gator research uncovers increased levels of mercury in the state’s swamps.

In a breakthrough study published today in Science Advances, researchers at UH Hawaiʻi Institute of Marine Biology (HIMB) Marine Ecological Theory Lab reveal that coral reefs are creeping toward the poles in response to warming oceans, but the pace is too slow to beat the heat and escape impacts of climate change.

After the island of Madagascar drifted away from India 88 million years ago, isolating it from all other landmasses, its flora and fauna evolved in seclusion.
