Our paper about how resource variability shapes the ecology of social information is out in this issue of TREE! This eco-evolutionary lens helps explain why collective sensing has evolved across such a wide range of lifeforms, from microbes to blue whales.

New mechanism for magnetic sensing in pigeons 🧭
Homing pigeons use magnetically responsive immune cells in their livers to sense Earth’s magnetic field, helping them navigate without visual cues like the sun.

If you’re getting shitty about arxiv penalising obvious AI slop that the authors have not checked then maybe you should rethink academia as being a place for you. As an EIC of a journal I can tell you that this stuff is ridiculously pervasive and takes time away from reviewing actual human work.
