Restoration ecology in conflict along the Colorado front range
Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.Abstract Introduction Cheatgrass (Bromus tectorum) is a challenge to restoration in western North America. It attracts the attention of academic and government research scientists, weed managers, and chemical companies. Attempts to control it cause conflicts among these groups.

Global Nitrogen Deposition Promotes Carbon Sink Formation in Terrestrial Ecosystems
Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 33, 15 June 2026.Nitrogen deposition alleviates ecosystem N limitation and enhances carbon sinks. Using 829 observations, we show 36% of deposited N is retained globally (39.15 Tg N yr−1), with distinct NHx and NOy contributions. This retention drives a terrestrial C sink of 0.88 Pg C yr−1 (25.48%), highlighting the importance of pool‐specific C:N stoichiometry ...

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.Pleske's ground jay (Podoces pleskei), an endemic bird of Iran's drylands, faces severe habitat loss due to climate change and human activities. Using ecological niche models and GIS analyses, we identified key environmental drivers of its distribution and found that 52% of suitable habitat is projected to be lost, with much of the remaining range ...

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.This study investigates the species composition, distribution, and diversity of Betula platyphylla forests in the Nyang River Basin in southeastern Tibet. The results show that elevation is the primary factor influencing species diversity in plant communities, with diversity indices significantly decreasing with increasing elevation.

Disease, Drought, and Warming: A Triple Threat to a Declining High‐Elevation Amphibian
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.We developed a dynamic co‐occurrence occupancy model to explore the effects of climate change on the occupancy of boreal toads (Anaxyrus boreas) and the amphibian chytrid fungus (Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis, Bd) in the southern Rocky Mountains. We derived novel covariates to test hypotheses related to multi‐generational impacts of climate on the ...

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.The article analyses macro‐moth (Lepidoptera) inventory data from 292 nature reserves across the Czech Republic, comprising 941 species. It examines how reserve characteristics, geographic position and altitude influence species richness, community composition and their associations with species traits.

How Does the Phasianidae Maintain Its Diversity in Central China?
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.ABSTRACT The hypothesis of allopatric speciation suggests that spatial separation is the major driver to speciation. The ecological niche theory suggests that differentiations in niche dimensions allow more species to co‐exist in ecological communities.
