PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Brazil's diverse flora is under several threats, with many unique lineages facing extinction, particularly in biodiverse regions like the Cerrado and campo rupestre. This study sheds light on the conservation needs of Cambessedesia (Melastomataceae), an endemic genus with 95% of its species endangered, using an approach to rank and prioritise species ...

Measuring the impact of different green space layouts on the urban heat island and climate in a semi-arid region: Case of Ain Smara city (Algeria) [PDF]
E3S Web of ConferencesThe urban microclimate and climate are positively impacted by green spaces in neighbourhoods. Through the creation of a cooling effect via shade and evapotranspiration, they contribute to regulating the urban climate and reducing the urban heat island ...

Bioclimatic dataset of Metropolitan France under current conditions derived from the WorldClim model
Data in Brief, 2020 Several studies have shown that adequate bioclimatic information is of major importance for mapping ecological niches or for modelling the distribution ranges of species and communities, particularly from a climate change perspective [1,2].

Potential Range Shifts of Two Sympatric Fagus Species [PDF]
Ecol EvolUsing MaxEnt modeling, we found that Fagus longipetiolata's habitat suitability is primarily precipitation‐driven while F. lucida's depends more on temperature, with both species concentrated in the Yangtze River Basin; despite their shared ancestry, F. lucida exhibits greater vulnerability to future warming due to accelerated habitat fragmentation and

Potential distribution and susceptibility of Coffea arabica L. to climate change impacts
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Ecological niche models (ENMs) are vital for understanding the impact of historical factors on ecosystems and predicting future climate change scenarios. These models help assess how environmental shifts affect agricultural species like coffee, which supports millions of people globally.
