Many animals use visual signals to navigate through their environment, and among the top navigators in the animal world we find insects. Even though their brains are incredibly small, insects are able to find their way using, for example, a strategy known as path integration. By updating the distance and direction travelled the insect is able to find the way back to its point of origin along a str

Trees in the boreal region provide enormous amounts of carbon storage in their above ground biomass as woody trunks, as well as below ground in their root systems. Mycorrhizal fungi also act as a carbon store in boreal forests and receive carbon from the host tree in the form of photosynthates. Partitioning of a tree's carbon above or below ground is highly dependent on other nutrient cycles s
