Detecting and attributing climate change effects on vegetation: Australia as a test case
Climate change is contributing to vegetation changes that threaten life support systems. Yet, inherent climatic variability and past and present human actions—such as clearing, burning and grazing regimes—also alter vegetation and complicate understanding of vegetation change. Australian ecosystems exemplify such complexity.

Accounting for functional diversity in biodiversity protection measures
Globally, countries are becoming increasingly committed to conserving biodiversity. Traditional methods of measuring biodiversity are simple and might miss out on capturing some of the more important functional features that comprise ecosystems. We compare a real‐world conservation program with background vegetation data to explore whether these ...

ABSTRACT Environmentally friendly farming practices are gaining interest, and intercropping is a promising option to protect soil health, yet its effects on orchard microbiomes and functions remain underexplored. In this study, we assessed a 3‐year intercropping assay of Capparis spinosa (D1) and Thymus hyemalis (D2) with almond and reduced tillage in ...
