Biodiversity collections are experiencing a renaissance fueled by the intersection of informatics, emerging technologies, and the extended use and interpretation of specimens and archived databases. In this article, we explore the potential for transformative research in ecology integrating biodiversity collections, stable isotope analysis (SIA), and environmental informatics. Like genomic DNA, SIA provides a common currency interpreted in the context of biogeochemical principles.

Article Synopsis
- Scientists looked at how different factors, like radiation, can cause differences in how well animals develop symmetrically, specifically focusing on yellow-necked mice near Chornobyl.
- They found that these mice living close to the radioactive area had more irregularities in their body shapes and sizes (called fluctuating asymmetry) than mice living in safer areas.
- The study showed that while their body sizes were more affected, not all shape differences were as noticeable when compared to healthier mouse populations.*

Increased reports of contaminants in atmospheric aerosols necessitate the development of exposure systems that can accurately simulate aerosols for research purposes. This study outlines the design, construction, cost, and performance of a simple plexiglass chamber equipped with nozzles for rain and aerosol generation. The chamber occupies approximately 152 cm x 125 cm (height x width) space and can be used to expose six large (625 cm2) plants or twelve smaller (144 cm2) ones.
