Dead museum specimens are finding new life, providing critical data about otherwise hidden impacts of human-caused environmental change. New research powerfully leverages decades of plant collections to uncover global responses in floral pigmentation linked to ozone and climate change.
博物馆的死标本正焕发出新的活力,提供有关人类活动导致的环境变化所产生的其他隐藏影响的关键数据。一项新研究充分利用了数十年的植物标本,揭示了与臭氧和气候变化相关的全球花卉色素沉着反应。
