Ecography, EarlyView.Copious questions in global change biology require estimates of climatic suitability for species in the past or future, often via transfers of ecological niche models (ENMs) using outputs from global circulation models (GCMs). However, available GCMs differ markedly, affecting hindcasts and forecasts of species potential distributions. We propose using

Biogeography and evolutionary patterns of temperate deciduous forests in the Northern Hemisphere
Ecography, EarlyView.Temperate deciduous forests of North America, west Eurasia, and east Eurasia share a common origin but were later separated by major geographic barriers. Here, we examine their diverging biodiversity and evolutionary patterns by analyzing floristic richness, phylogenetic turnover, and community evolutionary distinctiveness (CED).

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, EarlyView.Wall lizards' ventral coloration undergoes cryptic ontogenetic color changes invisible without UV vision. We tracked wall lizards from hatching to one year of age. Spectrophotometry and visual modeling reveal that juveniles show a distinct UV‐enhanced white coloration that changes differently across sexes and body regions.

People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Pastoral practices remain a widespread economic activity across European mountain regions. However, the viability of this activity may be threatened by the recovery of large wild vertebrates associated with passive rewilding, leading to the so‐called human–wildlife conflicts.
