After learning exactly what kinds of environments turned out to be most favorable as microhabitats, Warren-Rhodes says, she has learned to visually spot these places on the ground.

“Microhabitats reduced mean temperature by 1–2 degrees Celsius and reduced the duration of extreme temperature exposure by 14–31 times,” the researchers write.

An international team of scientists led by the University of California San Diego has produced the first 3D-printed synthetic coral tissues that can house symbiotic algae. The team built three ...

The spectacular range of colors and patterns that butterflies use to deter predators appears to result in part from very specific environmental conditions in so-called 'microhabitats,' researchers ...

D. rotundifolia plants in unshaded, low-nutrient microhabitats exhibited greater investment in carnivorous traits, such as higher tentacle density and greater nitrogen uptake from prey.

Repeat your observations in other microhabitats—trying to find ones that are very different (sunny versus shady or dry versus damp, for example) and some similar ...

Within microhabitats, we can find many different types of minibeasts like woodlice, spiders, worms, snails and moths. All of them are tiny creatures that live in small places.

Diverse macrovegetation can provide heterogeneous habitats for benthic diatoms. Researchers from the Centre for Ecological Research Institute of Aquatic Ecology and the University of Debrecen ...
