The new report on alien invasive species doesn’t just concentrate on problems. It also offers solutions.
Invasive ants are a major threat to biodiversity, according to a study.
Many animal species can be detected using a simple, low tech method of collecting DNA from the environment.
Many researchers are exploring high-tech ways to help reefs survive the climate crisis. But low-tech solutions like manually pulling out seaweed have a place too.
Australia has almost 1.8 million farm dams – and some are home to threatened frog species
Mistletoes are ecological keystones that boost habitat value for wildlife, so we added them to established plane trees in the inner city.
Modern ecosystems are very different to how they were just a few centuries ago.
Not all alien species are a significant hazard to people and ecosystems.
Marine heatwaves aren’t just on the surface. They can be at their most destructive when they sweep along the seafloor.
Zimbabwe’s climate action plan is on track to check emissions and promote development. Other countries can learn from it.
While Canada pledges $200 million to promote biodiversity, Doug Ford removes lands from the Greenbelt. Here is why we all should care.
Introduced species and diseases can drive native species into smaller environmental niches – and that could mean change to how we work to conserve them.
Echidnas are seemingly everywhere in Australia, from the Red Centre to snowy mountains. And that’s just the start of what makes them interesting
Coastlines need to be recognised as dynamic, shifting environments rather than as environments that need to be controlled and managed.
The UN ‘30 by 30’ biodiversity strategy aims to set aside 30% of land as protected areas. New research shows these areas do support biodiversity, but big parks also increase it outside their borders.
With more than one species for every person on the planet, soils are the most diverse habitat on Earth.
Tasmania’s forestry wars aren’t over, if the uproar over the felling of a large mountain ash is anything to go by.
Invertebrates underpin Earth’s ecosystems – so if their numbers decline, the ecological damage will be felt far and wide.
Recent survey evidence suggests that most Canadians have positive opinions of wolves and rural Canadians in particular have strongly positive feelings on wolves and their protection.
