The joint effects of chemical pollution and climate change on soil food webs remain underexplored. This Progress discusses the impacts of these stressors on soil food web structure along with a potential framework to mitigate the adverse effects on soil functions.
Plastic waste in the environment can modify habitats and change the mating, feeding and dispersal behaviours of organisms. This Progress discusses the emerging understanding of the ecological and evolutionary consequences of these effects of plastic pollution.
This Progress discusses potential applications of artificial intelligence models that generate new data and how they can be used to advance ecology research.
