The overexploitation of wild populations for the marine ornamental trade necessitates optimized captive breeding, particularly for iconic species like the clownfish Amphiprion ocellaris. This study investigated the social behavior and cognitive abilities of juvenile clownfish in relation to artificial rearing practices. Using modified three-tank tests, we assessed social preference and cognition ability in two size groups: Sma...

Global warming is expected to change the diversity, composition, and functioning of plant communities. However, it remains unclear how warming alters the temporal stability of different aspects of plant communities and the extent to which these different aspects are interlinked or respond differently to warming. Here, using data from a 10‐year, multi‐level warming experiment in an alpine grassland, we quantified the temporal s...

The Sulu Sea is a small marginal sea in the western Pacific, but it is a very complex and tectonically active region, situated amidst the convergence of the Eurasian, Pacific, and India-Australian plates. Deciphering its geodynamic evolution is crucial, but our understanding of its opening, closure, and tectonic history remains inadequate. The main aim of this study was to systematically study the opening and subsequent closur...

There is growing evidence that land‐use management practices such as livestock grazing can strongly impact the local diversity, functioning, and stability of grassland communities. However, whether these impacts depend on environmental condition and propagate to larger spatial scales remains unclear. Using an 8‐year grassland exclosure experiment conducted at nine sites in the Tibetan Plateau covering a large precipitation gra...

Anthropogenic environmental changes are influencing the structure and function of many ecological communities, but their underlying mechanisms are often poorly understood. We conducted a 7‐year field experiment to explore the ecological consequences of nitrogen (N) and phosphorous (P) enrichment in a high‐altitude Tibetan alpine grassland. We found that the enrichment of both N and P, but not either alone, increased plant abov...
