Digitised herbarium specimen data reveal a climate change‐related trend to an earlier, shorter Canadian Arctic flowering season, and phylogenetic signal in Arctic flowering times

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary The Arctic is experiencing some of the world's most rapid changes in climate. Arctic plant flowering time responses to climate change are understudied. Globally, conflicting evidence exists on whether flowering time responses to temperature are evolutionarily conserved.

Not only reseeder or resprouter plants: Trait syndromes and post‐fire responses of three iconic Mediterranean woody species

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Post‐fire plant functional strategies of Mediterranean woody species can be less fixed than often thought when intraspecific variability of fire‐related traits is considered. Abstract Fire can profoundly affect ecosystem dynamics, species distribution and plant traits, especially in open biomes.

Robustness Assessment of Public Transport Networks in Various Graph Representations: Systematic Review, Decision Support, and Case Study

Networks, Volume 87, Issue 4, Page 343-371, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The analysis of certain properties of the underlying graph of a public transport network generates insights about the network's structure. Hereby, the choice of the graph representation depends on a trade‐off between complexity reduction and information preservation to adequately model a public transport network.

Exploring local immunological adaptation of two stickleback ecotypes by experimental infection and transcriptome-wide digital gene expression analysis [PDF]

, 2012
Understanding the extent of local adaptation in natural populations and the mechanisms that allow individuals to adapt to their native environment is a major avenue in molecular ecology research. Evidence for the frequent occurrence of diverging ecotypes

The Influence of Sea Ice and Ice Mélange on Outlet Glacier Dynamics in the Arctic and Antarctic: Recent Progress and Future Challenges

Reviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Sea ice is situated close to the termini of many outlet glaciers in the Arctic and Antarctic and has the potential to influence their dynamics and, therefore, their contribution to sea level rise. However, the nature, prevalence, and ice‐dynamic significance of sea ice‐glacier interactions remains subject to several open questions.

Leaf longevity and structure, fruit mass and phenology in 52 cultivated varieties and wild accessions of olive

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 5, Page 1193-1206, May 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Although phenology has long been recognized as a critical feature for the adaptation of organisms to their local environment, until recently, phenological events have seldom been considered in the broader context of trait‐based ecology.

Applying the maximum entropy principle to neural networks enhances multi‐species distribution models

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 5, Page 1655-1670, May 2026.
Abstract The increasing volume of presence‐only (PO) data generated by citizen science initiatives has greatly expanded biodiversity databases, but the statistical use of these data in species distribution models (SDMs) remains limited by strong sampling biases and the absence of reliable absence information.
