Reconciling links between diversity and population stability across global plant communities
Summary Maintaining ecological stability is essential for sustaining ecosystem functions and the benefits they provide to society. Ecological theory predicts that plant diversity destabilizes local populations, yet empirical studies report variable effects.

Frozen Soil Hydrological Processes and Their Effects: A Review and Synthesis
Abstract Frozen soils, including seasonally frozen ground and permafrost, are rapidly changing under a warming climate, with cascading effects on water, energy, and carbon cycles. We synthesize recent advances in the physics, observation, and modeling of frozen‐soil hydrology, emphasizing freeze–thaw dynamics, infiltration regimes and preferential flow,

Potential Impacts of Climate Interventions on Marine Ecosystems
Abstract Rising global temperatures pose significant risks to marine ecosystems, biodiversity, and fisheries. Recent comprehensive assessments suggest that large‐scale mitigation efforts to limit warming are falling short, and all feasible future climate projections, including those that represent optimistic emissions reductions, exceed the Paris ...

Germination of Dracophyllum sayeri F.Muell. (Ericaceae), a vulnerable montane cloud forest endemic
Climate change in tropical montane cloud forest (TMCF) is predicted to impact species adapted to consistent, mild temperatures. We used a temperature gradient plate to investigate the effect of temperature on germination and early seedling survival of Dracophyllum sayeri (Ericaceae), a tree species endemic to TMCF in northeast Queensland, Australia ...
