Within the set of risk factors that compromise the conservation of marine biodiversity, one of
the least understood concerns is the noise produced by human operations at sea and from …

Animal behaviour is remarkably sensitive to disruption by chemical pollution, with
widespread implications for ecological and evolutionary processes in contaminated wildlife …

Plasticity-led evolution is central to evolutionary theory. Although challenging to study in
nature, this process may be particularly apparent in novel environments such as cities. We …

While direct influences of the environment on population growth and resilience are well
studied, indirect routes linking environmental changes to population consequences are less …

Chemical contaminants in the environment have become a growing concern due to their
detrimental effects on the ecology and evolution of organisms. Understanding the impacts of …

Collective behaviours, such as flocking in birds or decision making by bee colonies, are
some of the most intriguing behavioural phenomena in the animal kingdom. The study of …

In this work, we explore the potential influence of sensory ecology on speciation, including
but not limited to the concept of sensory drive, which concerns the coevolution of signals and …

The blue landscape (BL), which refers to the wetlands, rivers, lakes, and other bodies of
water, is of immense importance for a sustainable environment. It provides a variety of …

Extreme weather events radically alter ecosystems. When ecological damage persists,
selective pressures on individuals can change, leading to phenotypic adjustments. For …

The age of individuals has consequences not only for their fitness and behaviour but also for
the functioning of the groups they form. Because social behaviour often changes with age …
