Lessons from automatic airborne pollen monitoring by holography at three Australian sitesNARA Subscribed
Automatic airborne pollen monitoring offers potential to enable real-time, sustainable environmental health information to assist with management of allergic respiratory disease. Automatic systems, however, have not been widely deployed in the Southern Hemisphere, where there is considerable biodiversity. An automatic holography-based device combined with a classification algorithm was trialled in Australia for 15 months over...
This study examined how carbon and nitrogen assimilation and exchange shift under normal and elevated temperatures in three cnidarian-dinoflagellate symbioses involving Exaiptasia diaphana (Aiptasia) with either the native symbiont Breviolum minutum or the non-native symbionts Breviolum psygmophilum or Durusdinium trenchii . Carbon was provided as 13 C-bicarbonate and nitrogen as 15 N-ammonium, nitrate, dissolved free amino ac...
Coral bleaching events, in which symbionts are lost from host tissues, have become more frequent and severe because of climate change—specifically, elevated temperatures. How such events impact biogenic volatile organic compound (BVOC) emissions, compounds that can function as metabolic signalling elements, remains underexplored. Here we used gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (GC–MS) to characterise the suite o...
Freshwater biodiversity in a rapidly changing Arctic: An expert horizon scan of key research questionsNARA Subscribed
Arctic freshwater biodiversity is rapidly changing due to climate warming, resource extraction, infrastructure development, and landscape transformation. To improve understanding, predict future responses, and inform policy formulation, research needs must be clearly identified. Using a horizon scan survey, Arctic freshwater experts from government, international agencies, and Indigenous Peoples identified 77 biodiversity rese...
Wildfires are often a natural part of many European ecosystems, but human activities through land use, other socio‐economic factors and climate change have significantly changed how fires behave. Anthropogenic climate change is already intensifying fire‐prone weather and increasing wildfire risk across Europe with risk expected to grow sharply in coming decades. Past experience suggests that human action, such as fuel manageme...
Making palaeoclimatology research policy‐relevant: Insights and experience from the DECADAL ProjectNARA Subscribed
Quaternary palaeoclimatology uniquely provides insights and new evidence about climate variability trends and extremes prior to the instrumental record; yet, its knowledge is rarely integrated into governmental decision‐making. This opinion piece shares lessons and experience from the UKRI‐funded DECADAL project, which bridges palaeoclimate science and policy through co‐production with UK climate services and policy institutio...
