Low-dispersal insects show a decline in species richness over an 11-year period, largely associated with climate change. It's cool to see field studies matching our predictive results (arxiv.org/abs/2603.29116)

Anthropogenic activity threatens biodiversity through climate change, habitat fragmentation, and increasing frequency and scale of disturbance. Various theoretical studies have sought to shed light on...
New research in Spanish forests shows that climate change is affecting saproxylic insects. Large beetles with low dispersal are declining, while smaller, more mobile species are now more common, especially in oak forests.
