Flowering Asynchrony and Temporal Mate Restriction in Tropical Peat Swamp Forest Trees

open access: yesBiotropica, Volume 58, Issue 2, March 2026.
Tropical peat swamp forest trees flower asynchronously, restricting mating opportunities between conspecifics. Using an 18‐year dataset from Central Kalimantan, Indonesia, we show that while the same individual trees tend to flower together through time, there is enough turnover in which trees flower contemporaneously that lifetime mate restriction and

Solving three core challenges in transient dynamics analysis of matrix population models

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 10, Page 2517-2530, October 2025.
Abstract Populations are at the mercy of random disturbances, large and small, and rarely, if ever, converge on predicted long‐term behaviours. Therefore, when using matrix population models, ecologists study the dynamics of populations that depart from stable distributions.

The stepwise rise of angiosperm‐dominated terrestrial ecosystems

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 100, Issue 5, Page 2131-2149, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Angiosperms are the most diverse and abundant plant taxon today and dominate the majority of Earth's terrestrial ecosystems. They underwent rapid divergence and biogeographic expansion from the early to the middle Cretaceous. Yet, transformative ecosystem change brought about by the increased ecological dominance of angiosperms unfolded ...
