The effect of global change on mosquito-borne disease
More than 80% of the global population is at risk of a vector-borne disease, with mosquito-
borne diseases being the largest contributor to human vector-borne disease burden …

Has land use pushed terrestrial biodiversity beyond the planetary boundary? A global assessment
Land use and related pressures have reduced local terrestrial biodiversity, but it is unclear
how the magnitude of change relates to the recently proposed planetary boundary (“safe …

Tropical and Mediterranean biodiversity is disproportionately sensitive to land-use and climate change
Global biodiversity is undergoing rapid declines, driven in large part by changes to land use
and climate. Global models help us to understand the consequences of environmental …
