We evaluated habitat characteristics of spring migration routes and stopover sites for adult female elk (Cervus canadensis), mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus), and pronghorn (Antilocapra americana) in the San Juan Mountains (2021–2022) and found species‐specific differences in vegetation structure, terrain, and proximity to land cover types relative to ...

Based on mass balance theory and IsoSource program,stable carbon and nitrogen isotopic ratios revealed that small mammals (plateau pika,root vole and plateau zokor) contributed 26.8% and 27.0% and 29.2% to alpine weasel,steppe polecat and upland ...

Plant community composition typically undergoes progressive changes along environmental gradients. However, most experimental studies have focused on individual communities, so it remains unclear how exogenous nutrient inputs affect the stability of ...

Models constitute the primary approaches for predicting terrestrial ecosystem gross primary production (GPP) at regional and global scales. Many satellite-based GPP models have been developed due to the simple algorithms and the low requirements of model

ABSTRACT Plant carbon allocation and physiology are influenced by overgrazing during the growth period. However, the response of plant physiological processes to overgrazing during winter dormancy remains unclear. We analyzed root physiological processes of Stipa purpurea in winter dormancy across three plots: over grazing (FG), exclusions of 2 years ...

Abstract Competition for forage between wild ungulates and grazing livestock poses a critical challenge for sustaining grassland ecosystems and pastoral livelihoods. Protected areas (PAs) may mitigate competition, but quantitative multi‐species assessments that simultaneously integrate habitat overlap, forage availability, and conservation ...

Phenology drives asymmetric responses of ecosystem productivity stability to warming and cooling
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Ecosystem productivity stability is a key indicator of ecosystem functioning under climate change, but the role of cooling periods in increasingly variable climates remains poorly resolved.

Impact of climatic change on alpine ecosystems: inference and prediction [PDF]
Alpine ecosystems will be greatly impacted by climatic change, but other factors, such as land use and invasive species, are likely to play an important role too. Climate can influence ecosystems at several levels.
