Fish Mass Mortality Events Trigger Energy Transfer via Invertebrate‐Mediated Pathways at the Aquatic–Terrestrial Interface

Freshwater Biology, Volume 71, Issue 9, September 2026.
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

Global Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 35, Issue 9, September 2026.
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

Restoration Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 7, September 2026.
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.

Restoration ecology in conflict along the Colorado front range

Restoration Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 7, September 2026.
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.

Alpine Secondary Forest Types Influence Soil Microbial Community Structure and Enzyme Activities on the Eastern Qinghai–Tibet Plateau

Land Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 14, Page 10107-10126, 30 August 2026.
ABSTRACT Soil microbial communities and enzyme activities influence soil functions and tree growth in ecologically fragile alpine regions. However, differences in soil microbial communities among secondary forests remain poorly understood in the Qinghai–Tibet Plateau.

Greening and Divergent Stability Responses in Central Asian Mountain Grasslands Under the Grassland Ecological Compensation Policy of China

Land Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 14, Page 10147-10161, 30 August 2026.
ABSTRACT Mountain grasslands of Central Asia, recognized as a globally significant biodiversity hotspot and a vital pastoral resource, are presently experiencing profound transformations driven by climate change and evolving grazing practices. This study investigated the multidimensional dynamics of ecosystem stability in the Bayinbuluk grassland of ...

The Aridity Threshold of Soil Organic Carbon Density Along the Climate Aridity Gradient in the Alpine Ecosystem of the Qinghai‐Tibetan Plateau

Land Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 14, Page 10205-10216, 30 August 2026.
ABSTRACT Soil organic carbon density (SOCD) is a key indicator for evaluating the stability of soil carbon pools, especially in alpine ecosystems that are sensitive to climate change. However, research on the response of SOCD to different aridity gradients is still limited. Therefore, we conducted extensive sampling along different aridity gradients of
