Pacific salmon have experienced declining abundance and unpredictable returns, yet remain vital to livelihoods, food security, and cultures of coastal communities around the Pacific Rim, creating a need for reliable and timely monitoring to inform sustainable fishery management. Currently, spawning salmon abundance is often monitored with in-river video or sonar cameras. However, reviewing video for estimates of salmon abundan...

Although belowground ecosystems have been studied extensively and soil biota play integral roles in biogeochemical processes, surprisingly we have a limited understanding of global patterns in belowground biomass and community structure. To address this critical gap, we conducted a meta‐analysis of published data (> 1300 datapoints) to compare belowground plant, microbial and faunal biomass across seven of the major biomes on...
