Climate‐driven resource availability drives medium‐ and broad‐scale temporal changes in owl–prey interactions over 24 years in a semi‐arid ecosystem

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Predator–prey interactions are vital to ecosystem functioning but may be disrupted by climate change. We investigated a food‐web network involving three owl species over 24 years in a semi‐arid ecosystem at Bosque Fray Jorge National Park, Chile.

Phylogenetic structure of conifers in regional floras in relation to climate and environmental heterogeneity worldwide

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Despite having only about 670 species worldwide, conifers are one of the ecologically and economically most important plant groups. They have a rich fossil record and previous studies have shown that their current diversity is the result of past radiations, extinction, and dispersal events, restricting many genera to either the Northern or Southern ...

Topography constrains the climatic response of treeline migration in Taiwan's subalpine forests

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Treelines are moving upslope, but the rates and drivers differ among different regions, globally. Many studies have examined the relationship between treeline movement and climate change, particularly rising temperature, while the role of topographical factors has received much less attention, despite the longstanding recognition of its importance.

Extrapolation strategy matters when transferring ecological niche models: new visualization tools for informed decisions

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Abstract Ecological niche models (ENMs) are commonly used to predict species' potential distributions across space and time, allowing researchers and practitioners to assess invasion risk, estimate the impacts of future climate change, and reconstruct past distributions.
