Mycorrhiza‐induced alterations in the spatial structure of stands in a subtropical forest

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 3, Page 668-678, March 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Spatial aggregation patterns represent snapshots of ecological processes that occurred over an extensive period. Such processes can shape both the conspecific and the heterospecific spatial structure of plants across woody habitats.

Mechanisms on Mangrove Ecosystem Degradation from Waves by Boats [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
通过分析波浪在林内和光滩上传播途径,阐述了船舶引起的频繁巨浪造成红树植物死亡、林内动物种群和数量减少、滩涂断层及红树植物难以自然扩展等生态系统退化机理;在此基础上提出消除和减少船舶兴波对红树林生态系统危害的有效对策。In this paper,different paths of wave spreading in the bare mudflat and vegetated areas were analyzed,and damages from boat-generated waves to ...

Cu‐Enhanced Medium‐Entropy TiZrCoCrMo Alloys: Balancing Superior Antibacterial and Osteogenic Properties for Orthopedic Implants

open access: yesRare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT This study introduces novel nonequiatomic TiZrCoCrMoCux (x = 0, 5, 10; at%) medium‐entropy alloys (MEAx) tailored for orthopedic implants, synergistically combining the biocompatibility of Ti‐based alloys, the wear resistance of CoCrMo alloys, and the antibacterial/osteogenic attributes of Cu. The alloy's microstructure, mechanical properties,

Contrasting light demands determine the coordination of plants' non‐structural carbohydrates and economic strategy over the range of solar spectral composition

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 2, Page 534-552, February 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Non‐structural carbohydrates (NSC) are critical mediators of plant adaptation to fluctuating light environments. They are tightly coordinated with plant economic strategy, that is, leaf economics spectrum (LES) and root economics spectrum (RES).

Role of forest edges and other seminatural linear landscape features in structuring wild bee habitat connectivity in intensively managed landscapes

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 6, December 2025.
Abstract Pollinator conservation schemes typically focus on conserving existing, restoring degraded, or creating new wild bee habitats. Their effectiveness depends on dispersal corridors enabling habitat colonization by bees. However, the role of seminatural linear landscape structures (LLS) in connecting pollinator communities across intensively ...

Traditional knowledge promotes the protection of large old trees: A case from China's richest biocultural diversity area

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 7, Issue 11, Page 2700-2713, November 2025.
Abstract Large old trees are important ecological entities in human settlements, providing cultural values and ecological services that are threatened by current and future changes in global climate, land use and disturbance regimes. Some studies suggest incorporating social and cultural significance into the conservation of large old trees.

Aridity and grazing are associated with reduced trait complementarity and higher invasion intensity of Solanum rostratum in native plant communities

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 39, Issue 11, Page 3255-3268, November 2025.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract The biotic resistance hypothesis (BRH) of Elton posits that diverse communities are more resistant to biological invasions. While the effects of climatic stresses and human disturbances on community invasibility have been extensively studied individually, their combined

Preliminary studies on effects of restored mangroves on coastal soils [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
初步研究了不同林龄的再植红树林对海岸湿地土壤理化性质的影响。结果表明,红树林恢复对深层土壤(20~25cm)的影响强于表层(0~5cm);与光滩相比,红树林恢复对表层土壤的氧化还原性无显著影响,但导致20~25 cm土层氧化性增强;再植红树林对土壤营养盐有明显吸收作用,其中NH4+-N含量显著高于NO2--N 和NO3--N,为主要吸收营养盐,PO43--P含量虽与IN相当,但红树林对P的吸收并不明显;随着红树林恢复时间的延长(林龄增加),20-25 cm土层的pH值显著下降,红树林酸化作用增强 ...

Strategies in Ericaceae to acquire phosphorus in phosphorus‐impoverished habitats in the southwest Australian biodiversity hotspot

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 39, Issue 10, Page 2889-2904, October 2025.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract In the Southwest Australian Biodiversity Hotspot, the greatest plant species diversity tends to occur on the most phosphorus (P)‐impoverished soils. Many plant species in this P‐impoverished environment release root carboxylates that mobilise soil P which is a more ...
