The ecological impact of artificial light at night has been a rapidly growing field of global change science in recent years. While understanding of direct… Read More »Artificial skyglow impacts on the chronobiology of marine organisms
Invasive species represent one of the most pressing threats to earth’s biodiversity. This ENVISION PhD studentship is an exciting opportunity to work at the interface… Read More »Aerodynamic invasions: does the biomechanics of flight affect dispersal and genetic diversity in invasive species?
Arctic summers are now characterized by ever-expanding areas of open water exposed by the declining sea ice. This dramatic decline has input fresh meltwater to… Read More »Arctic sea-ice decline: An opening for more wind energy input to the ocean?
Armillaria species, are devastating fungal root-rot pathogens that affect over 500 woody plant species globally. They are facultative necrotrophs that colonise and attack the cambium… Read More »What lurks beneath: unravelling the chemically-guided ecological interactions of Armillaria fungi, a devastating group of subterranean forest pathogens
River deltas occupy about 0.6% of the Earth’s surface area, but contain 4% of the world’s population (about 300,000,000 people). They are also frequently highly… Read More »Delta dynamics: lessons from the Chao Phraya
Invasive lionfish threaten native Caribbean marine biodiversity. Lionfish predate unchecked on native fish which, unlike in the lionfish’s native Indo-Pacific, have no evolved defence. Current… Read More »Aliens in the twilight zone: using robots to study and manage invasive lionfish on Caribbean mesophotic coral ecosystems
