This is 🇺🇦Odesa’s Transfiguration Cathedral, a UNESCO World Heritage site damaged by russian missile attacks on Ukraine.
The strikes have scarred some of the nation’s most treasured architectural landmarks, including many churches.

Scale‐Dependent Effects of Plant Diversity Drivers Across Different Grassland Habitats in Ukraine Our findings support the idea that the responses of biodiversity to climate, soil factors, and litter depend on the size of the sampled area. We have identified main mechanisms behind the scale-depen...
