Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Ecosystem services (ES) play a crucial role in sustainable development. We systematically assessed the spatial and temporal dynamics of ecosystem service supply (ES‐s) and demand (ES‐d) in China from 1990 to 2020 by using a supply–demand matrix integrated with land use/cover data. The findings indicate that in 2020, grasslands accounted for 28.

Songklanakarin Journal of Science and Technology (SJST), 2018 Plant species of alpine and subalpine ecosystems in tropical mountains are prone to habitat loss due to future climate change. In the present study, the impact of climate change on the distribution of five endemic plant species of subalpine and alpine ...

Late Eocene bryozoan faunas in the Alpine-Carpathian region - a comparison [PDF]
, 1999 Twelve Priabonian (Late Eocene) bryozoan faunas of the Alps and Carpathians, collected from shallow to deep marine sediments, are compared by similarity indices.

Limnology and Oceanography, EarlyView.Abstract Streams naturally receive allochthonous particulate organic materials, but human activity may contribute additional plastic litter inputs, which can affect ecosystem functioning. Our objective was to assess the effect of plastic and bioplastic inputs on microbial biomass and function in a pristine mountain stream.

Ice thickness regulates heat flux in permanently ice‐covered lakes
Limnology and Oceanography, EarlyView.Abstract The permanently ice‐covered lakes of Taylor Valley, Antarctica, are rare ecosystems where permanent ice cover and year‐round vertically stable water columns provide critical redox zones for cold‐adapted microorganisms. Using 30 yr of limnological data from the McMurdo Dry Valleys Long‐Term Ecological Research program, we assessed the water ...

Limnology and Oceanography Letters, EarlyView.Abstract While climate change affects the phytoplankton biodiversity at both local and global scales, predicting phytoplankton community responses to warming is impaired by their polyphyletic complexity. High mountain lakes are highly vulnerable systems, partly due to their limited biodiversity, and forecasting their ecological trajectories is a key ...
