"...as you go from natural areas to human-modified areas, the number of individuals that can persist decreases, which then influences species richness."

A study of a lizard species in Arizona revealed that nearly 70 years' worth of climate-related extinction occurred in just seven years.

Hotspots for global trade, like ports, are linked to greater risk of invasions by non-native tree species, a study finds.

Just months after the 2018 Mendocino fire, animals began returning. "We were surprised that many species seem to be resistant [to the impacts of the fire]."

Why did more animal species from Asia make the leap to Australia than vice versa? A new study may have some answers.

Even tropical animals that live in protected areas aren't safe from the effects of human activity, a new study shows.

There are biases and gaps in both natural history collections and biodiversity apps like eBird and iNaturalist, research finds.

Tree diversity can increase storage of carbon and nitrogen in forest soils and ease the effects of climate change, a new study shows.

As climate change warms the oceans at higher latitudes, it will impede the evolution of fish species, a new study suggests.

Community gardens and urban farms are good for biodiversity and ecosystems. They also benefit the well-being of people that work in them.
