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 ...

Nature-based solutions can mitigate climate and human-induced threats to alpine aquatic ecosystems
Natural wetlands act as analogues to nature-based solutions for biodiversity conservation, carbon burial and pollution control in degraded lakes, but the extent to which they help restore the alpine lakes remains poorly understood.

Abstract Arctic soils store large amounts of soil organic carbon (SOC), yet landscape‐scale variability remains poorly constrained, especially in complex mountainous regions that can be found across the Arctic. Understanding climate change impacts on Arctic carbon dynamics requires in‐depth knowledge of SOC controls, given multiple drivers and ...

Mapping Groundwater‐Dependent Ecosystems for Contiguous China With Selected Hydroclimatic Windows
Abstract Groundwater‐dependent ecosystems (GDEs) provide critical ecosystem services in arid and semiarid regions and help sustain ecosystems during droughts in humid areas. Accurate mapping of GDEs is essential for improving water resource management and ecosystem conservation.

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.

Valuing Urban Wetlands of the Gnangara Mound: A Hedonic Property Price Approach in Western Australia [PDF]
Up to 60% of potable water supplied to Perth in Western Australia is extracted from the Gnangara mound. Many of the urban wetlands above the Mound are groundwater-dependent.

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 ...
