  • The cheapest way to add new power stations to a domestic power grid is by tree-like connections to the network. A numerical basin stability analysis of Menck et al.suggests that this undermines a grid’s stability against blackouts but can be fixed with extra transmission lines to these otherwise ‘dead ends’.

  • Linear-stability measures for assessing the state of a dynamical system are inherently local, and thus insufficient to quantify stability against substantial perturbations. The volume of a state’s basin of attraction offers a powerful alternative—and points towards a plausible explanation for regularity in real-world networks.

  • Linkages between neighbouring ecosystems are rarely considered when seeking to predict ecological responses to climate change. However, the finding that the impact of climate change on seagrass beds is mediated by the response of neighbouring coral reef habitats highlights the need for a broader-scale view of climate change impacts on ecosystems.
