Biodiversity monitoring programs need to deliver accurate, timely, and actionable predictions. To establish a predictive monitoring program for deep‐sea benthos of the Santos Basin, Brazil, we developed a two‐stage structured model that allowed comparison of biodiversity predictions obtained from environmental simulations (2M‐Sim). We also modeled the environmental variables as a function of spatial and temporal variables and...

Soil microbiomes are critical for ecosystem functioning, yet the global influences of climate and agricultural practices on their diversity and structure remain incompletely characterized. Here we analyzed 1921 soil samples from 33 countries worldwide across diverse biomes to assess how climate gradients and agricultural inputs, including pesticides and fertilizers, shape prokaryotic and fungal communities. We found that micro...

Understanding the life-history strategies of deep-sea fishes is essential for improving ecological knowledge and informing conservation efforts. Using otolith microchemistry, this study reconstructed the ontogenetic movement patterns of four grenadier species (Nezumia aequalis, Hymenocephalus billsam, Coelorinchus marinii, and Malacocephalus occidentalis) caught in the continental slope off southern Brazil (Southwestern Atlant...
