Biologists who set out to better understand the effects of climate change on plant species in tropical mountain regions found that even small variations in temperature and moisture can have massive ...

Planting more trees is often seen as one of the simplest ways to fight climate change, and it is. But a new study from UC Riverside shows that exactly where trees are planted matters just as much as ...

Up to half of the insects in the Amazon region could be exposed to life-threatening heat levels due to progressive, anthropogenic global warming. This is shown by a recent study by the universities of ...

Many tropical insects are already close to their heat tolerance limits, raising concerns that rising temperatures could disrupt ecosystems.

A recent study provides groundbreaking insights into long-term changes in tropical weather patterns that are leading to an increased frequency of extreme weather events such as heatwaves and heavy ...

Pollinators, including bees, butterflies, and beetles, shape global food production and support vast natural ecosystems. For years, efforts to protect these critical species have leaned on broad ...
