In 2023, the authors who rely on GBIF published an average of 34 peer-reviewed, GBIF-enabled papers each week. That rate makes it impossible for a curated selection of 50 summaries to be more than a fraction of the work, but we hope that together they highlight some of the most important, innovative and insightful articles from recent months.</p> <p>So if the exercise of reading Science Review No.11 is taking parts to stand in for the whole, the same applies to the feature section that concludes the issue. GBIF-enabled research on the topic of climate change is never simply about biodiversity; instead, these papers reveal the range of researchers’ efforts to understand and reveal the complex and dynamic interplay between climate change and biodiversity.</p> </div> <div class="block__actions"> <div class="block__action"> <a href="https://www.gbif.org/document/5N9YVBkTP3y7kqhFQviowM/gbif-science-review-no-11">Download SR#11 or request printed copies</a> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> </uib-slide> <uib-slide template-url="carouselslide.html" index="1"> <article class="block_slide ng-cloak"> <div class="block_slide__content"> <div class="block_slide__imageArea"> <div class="block_slide__imageArea__container"> <img src="//api.gbif.org/v1/image/unsafe/http:%2F%2Fimages.ctfassets.net%2Fuo17ejk9rkwj%2F5pf70PYODykVFNNBKX8TpX%2F84607f0e2a71f3a776ff45b9f75b44ec%2FCover-Final-N10-web.png"> <div class="block_slide__imageArea__caption" dir="auto"> GBIF Secretariat (2023) GBIF Science Review No. 10. <a href="https://doi.org/10.35035/37pp-tt84">https://doi.org/10.35035/37pp-tt84</a> </div> </div> </div> <div> <div class="block_slide__textContent" dir="auto"> <h3 class="h2 block_slide__textContent__title"> <div> Science Review No. 10 </div> </h3> <div class="block_slide__textContent__body body-text"> <p>Inside this compendium, you’ll find new selection of 50 summaries of recent GBIF-enabled research.

They used nearly 15 million occurrence records from the GBIF network to investigate potential geographic boundary limits for C4 photosynthetic plants. The impressive aspect is that these records came from 1,453 individual datasets, not just from large European and North American herbaria, but also from institutions in Benin, Colombia, Brazil, Estonia, Australia and Japan (<a href="https://doi.org/10.15468/dl.krwqzk">https://doi.org/10.15468/dl.krwqzk</a>).
