Plant Biology, EarlyView.Balkan high‐mountain fens harbour unique endemic plant communities, with a west‐to‐east compositional gradient and local richness primarily shaped by palaeoclimate. As these fens have already experienced drier, warmer summers than at present, they may withstand climate change if actively and effectively protected. Abstract The phenomenon of Balkan high‐

Plant Biology, EarlyView.Tcrit (critical temperature) may reflect early, adaptive photoprotective downregulation of PSII in Quercus ilex, whereas in Acer campestre and Fraxinus ornus, it may more closely correspond to the onset of thermal PSII vulnerability. Abstract Increasing temperatures impair photosynthetic apparatus by damaging photosystem II (PSII) efficiency.

From quantity to quality: the evolution of forest restoration in the United Kingdom
Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.Abstract Introduction Over the past century, forest cover in the United Kingdom has increased threefold. However, the pathways, achievements, and shortcomings of this expansion remain underexplored. Objectives This study analyses the drivers, implementation, and legacies of forest restoration in the United Kingdom before and after 1990, which is when ...

Nurse structures effectively improve the performance of restoration plantings: a systematic review
Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.Abstract Introduction Tree planting for ecosystem restoration often occurs on disturbed, degraded, or former agricultural sites, where seedlings face harsh conditions like sun exposure, drought, wind, frost, and browsing, which can lead to poor performance.

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.Abstract Introduction Intensified drought in the Mediterranean Basin poses challenges for conventional afforestation. Rainwater harvesting (RWH) is a climate‐adaptive solution that restores soil hydrological functions and buffers seedlings against drought in semiarid ecosystems.
