Microbial communities respond to experimental warming, but site matters
PEERJ, 2(1).
Contributors: M. Cregger *, N. Sanders *, R. Dunn n & A. Classen *
author keywords: Decomposition; Microbial communities; Global warming; Soil enzyme activity; Eastern deciduous forests; Ecosystem function
TL;DR:
Large-scale warming experiments established at two sites near the northern and southern boundaries of US eastern deciduous forests suggest that the responses of microorganisms to warming may be mediated by differences across the geographic boundaries of ecosystems.

Effects of temperature and prey size on predator-prey interactions between bluefish and bay anchovy
JOURNAL OF EXPERIMENTAL MARINE BIOLOGY AND ECOLOGY, 461, 449–457.
author keywords: Bay anchovy; Bluefish; Capture success; Overwinter; Predation; Temperature
TL;DR:
Bluefish modify prey size-selectivity behavior based on temperature, which probably results from a perceived inability to handle and ingest large prey at low temperatures, which suggests that at low winter temperatures bluefish are restricted to smaller prey.

Drosophila suzukii: The Genetic Footprint of a Recent, Worldwide Invasion
MOLECULAR BIOLOGY AND EVOLUTION, 31(12), 3148–3163.
author keywords: Drosophila suzukii; population genetics; invasion; pest
MeSH headings : Animals; Bayes Theorem; Drosophila / genetics; Genes, Insect; Genetic Variation; Haplotypes; Introduced Species; Male; Microsatellite Repeats; Models, Genetic; Spain; United States
TL;DR:
The results indicate high levels of nucleotide diversity in this invasive fruit fly species and suggest that the recent invasions of Europe and the continental United States are independent demographic events, which highlights the importance of integrating population structure into demographic models.

Unexpected phenological responses of butterflies to the interaction of urbanization and geographic temperature
ECOLOGY, 95(9), 2613–2621.
Contributors: S. Diamond n, H. Cayton n, T. Wepprich n, C. Jenkins n, R. Dunn n , N. Haddad n, L. Ries *
author keywords: anthropogenic change; citizen science; global climate change; impervious surface; Lepidoptera; nonadditive effects; phenology; physiology; temperature; trait-based modeling
TL;DR:
Although shifts toward earlier phenology are typical of species' responses to either global climate change or urbanization, it was found that their interaction delayed several Ohio butterflies' first appearance and peak abundance phenology.

TL;DR:
This work develops simulations using the SLEUTH urban growth model that complement population-driven models but focus on spatial pattern and extent, and extends the capabilities of SLEuth by incorporating street-network information.

Temporal variability is a personalized feature of the human microbiome
GENOME BIOLOGY, 15(12).
Contributors: G. Flores *, J. Caporaso*, J. Henley *, J. Rideout *, D. Domogala*, J. Chase*, J. Leff*, Y. Vázquez-Baeza *
MeSH headings : Adult; Bacteria / classification; Bacteria / isolation & purification; Feces / microbiology; Female; Forehead / microbiology; Genome, Bacterial; Genomics / methods; Hand / microbiology; Healthy Volunteers; Humans; Longitudinal Studies; Male; Microbiota; Middle Aged; Phylogeny; Tongue / microbiology; Young Adult
TL;DR:
The findings suggest that temporal dynamics may need to be considered when attempting to link changes in microbiome structure to changes in health status, and show that not only is the composition of an individual’s microbiome highly personalized, but their degree of temporal variability is also a personalized feature.

Ecologists, educators, and writers collaborate with the public to assess backyard diversity in The School of Ants Project
ECOSPHERE, 5(7).
Contributors: A. Lucky n, A. Savage n, L. Nichols n , C. Castracani *, L. Shell n, D. Grasso *, A. Mori *, R. Dunn n
author keywords: ants; citizen science; distribution; diversity; public participation in scientific research; urban ecosystems
TL;DR:
Data from the School of Ants program indicate that ant diversity varies across wide geographic scales and that there can be high levels of native ant diversity where people live, and to address concerns about the validity of citizen scientist-derived data, a ground truthing trial was conducted that confirmed that trained and untrained volunteers were equally effective at collecting ants.

Defining and Evaluating the Umbrella Species Concept for Conserving and Restoring Landscape Connectivity
CONSERVATION BIOLOGY, 28(6), 1584–1593.
author keywords: circuit theory; corridor; dispersal; landscape connectivity; modeling; surrogate species; conectividad de paisajes; corredor; dispersion; especies sustitutas; modelado; teoria de circuitos
MeSH headings : Animal Distribution; Animals; Birds / physiology; Butterflies / physiology; Conservation of Natural Resources / methods; Ecosystem; Endangered Species; Forests; Models, Biological; North Carolina; Ranidae / physiology
TL;DR:
It is contended that when there are no irreconcilable differences between the dispersal habitats of species that cohabitate on the landscape, managing for umbrella species can help conserve or restore connectivity simultaneously for multiple threatened species with different habitat requirements.
