Assessing multifunctional mountain landscape in an Eastern European framework

Geographical Research, Volume 64, Issue 2, May 2026.
The research introduces the Biocultural Resilience Index (BRI), a novel tool for assessing multifunctional landscape sustainability. By integrating biological, cultural, and socio‐economic indicators, the BRI identifies vulnerable areas and informs strategies for sustainable management.

Risk Status of Australia's Alpine and Subalpine Ecosystems

Austral Ecology, Volume 51, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Alpine and subalpine ecosystems are threatened by changing climate and disturbance regimes because they exist under extreme geographical and climatic conditions. Understanding the threats to and risk status of alpine and subalpine ecosystems is vital to guide their conservation, inform monitoring programs and identify the relative impact of ...

Integrating ecological feedbacks across scales and levels of organization

Ecography, Volume 2026, Issue 5, May 2026.
In ecosystems, species interact in various ways with other species, and with their local environment. In addition, ecosystems are coupled in space by diverse types of flows. From these links connecting different ecological entities can emerge circular pathways of indirect effects: feedback loops.

Beyond Co‐Occurrence: Multi‐Scale Evidence for Segregation‐Dominated Plant Networks in the French Alps

Ecology Letters, Volume 29, Issue 5, May 2026.
Using high‐resolution spatial data and a multi‐scale statistical framework, we disentangle plant co‐occurrence from true spatial associations across alpine communities in the French Alps. We discovered that local species associations are dependent on soil acidity and nitrogen rather than temperature. By building a global network from these associations,
