The toughest animals of the Earth versus global warming: Effects of long-term experimental warming on tardigrade community structure of a temperate deciduous forest

Vecchi, M., Kossi Adakpo, L., Dunn, R. R., Nichols, L. M., Penick, C. A., Sanders, N. J., … Guidetti, R. (2021, June 29). ECOLOGY AND EVOLUTION, Vol. 6.

author keywords: climate change; experimental; global warming; Tardigrades; water bears
TL;DR: Results are in line with previous experimental studies, indicating that tardigrades may not be directly affected by ongoing global warming, possibly due to their thermotolerance and cryptobiotic abilities to avoid negative effects of stressful temperatures, and the buffering effect on temperature of the soil litter substrate.

Understanding the evolution of nutritive taste in animals: Insights from biological stoichiometry and nutritional geometry

Demi, L. M., Taylor, B. W., Reading, B. J., Tordoff, M. G., & Dunn, R. R. (2021, June 4). ECOLOGY AND EVOLUTION, Vol. 6.

By: L. Demi n, B. Taylor n, B. Reading n, M. Tordoff* & R. Dunn n

author keywords: insect diversity; mass collected insects; DNA metabarcoding; COI; car nets; citizen science
MeSH headings : Animals; Automobiles; Biodiversity; DNA; DNA Barcoding, Taxonomic; Diptera / genetics; Humans; Insecta
TL;DR: This study demonstrates how nets mounted on rooftops of cars (car nets) and DNA metabarcoding can be applied to sample flying insect richness and diversity across large spatial scales within a limited time period, but may be, like other methods, biased towards certain insect orders.
