Increasing the resilience of the Australian alpine flora to climate change [PDF]
The alpine region around Australia’s highest mountain, Mt Kosciuszko, is part of one of the three most at risk ecosystems in Australia from climate change.

Abstract Boreal fire regimes in Alaska are expected to change with climate. Recent fire activity increased regional deciduous boreal forest fraction and decreased spruce, potentially foreshadowing landscape transformations that would affect habitat, ecohydrologic function, ecosystem services, and contribute to global climate feedbacks.

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.

ABSTRACT Feral deer are associated with a range of environmental impacts including overgrazing and trampling of native vegetation, increased insolation, ringbarking, creation of wallows, erosion and stream degradation. Consequences of invasive deer impacts can threaten vulnerable ecological communities and have the potential to alter long‐term ...

ABSTRACT Animal mass mortality events are increasing under global change, generating large and unpredictable pulses of carrion that can influence ecosystem functioning. Although scavenger dynamics at individual carcasses are relatively well understood, little is known about how terrestrial vertebrate and invertebrate assemblages exploit large carrion ...

Contemporary Environmental Drivers of European Plant Distributions
ABSTRACT Aim Understanding the contemporary environmental conditions determining plant species distributions is crucial. Here, we quantified the relative importance of climatic, edaphic, hydrological, topographic, and land use drivers of the European vascular flora and tested whether driver hierarchies vary across species groups and ecological ...

Incorporating burn probability into spatial prioritization of woodland caribou habitat restoration
Abstract Introduction Habitat disturbance is a major driver of population declines of woodland caribou in Canada. Habitat restoration is a critical component of a successful, long‐term approach to caribou recovery; however, with limited resources, it is important to target areas where restoration efforts will provide maximum benefits to caribou.
