The Blackhawks offseason continues to roll along with other teams in the playoffs and only the World Championships for us to watch involving Chicago players.
Dive into the electrifying clash where the Rangers outshone the Lightning! Artemi Panarin's hat trick lit up the game, complementing Igor Shesterkin's birthday brilliance in a goaltending spectacle.
Studies have reported widespread declines in terrestrial insect abundances in recent years1–4, but trends in other biodiversity metrics are less clear-cut5–7. Here we examined long-term trends in 923 terrestrial insect assemblages monitored in 106 studies, and found concomitant declines in abundance and species richness. For studies that were resolved to species level (551 sites in 57 studies), we observed a decline in the number of initially abundant species through time, but not in the number of very rare species. At the population level, we found that species that were most abundant at the start of the time series showed the strongest average declines (corrected for regression-to-the-mean effects). Rarer species were, on average, also declining, but these were offset by increases of other species. Our results suggest that the observed decreases in total insect abundance2 can mostly be explained by widespread declines of formerly abundant species. This counters the common
That’s how the CH’s current season is going: steady wins against clubs outside the playoffs, almost certain defeats against powerful teams… But there are patterns and problems around this team that date back much further, and I’m referring of course to the deficient special units. Fortunately, part of the solution already seems to be on […]
