Plant functional groups and root traits are linked to exudation rates of mature temperate trees
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Root exudation affects soil biogeochemistry profoundly, yet it is rarely quantified in mature, field‐grown trees and its controls are poorly understood. We measured rates of carbon (C) exudation in 11 tree species that exhibit divergent root traits, including ...

Linking seaweed farming with coral restoration: Bioremediation boosts early coral survivorship
These findings improve our understanding of seaweed cultivation on coral reefs, highlighting the ways in which farmed seaweed can improve water quality and enhance early coral survival. Linking coral restoration with a commercially viable seaweed industry creates a scalable, market‐driven mechanism to overcome costly post‐settlement survival ...

Widely studied stability drivers such as plant diversity and functional composition have only partial explanatory power for short‐term drought resistance of above‐ground productivity in grasslands at a global scale. The abiotic context, particularly long‐term aridity, is crucial for understanding ecosystem responses to rainfall variation and can ...

Cation responses to global changes alter ecological processes in ombrotrophic systems
Ombrotrophic bogs, which store large amounts of carbon as peat, receive all their mineral nutrition through deposition, making them particularly sensitive to cation‐displacing global changes. Here, we review the limited yet compelling evidence that cation availability is a key determinant of ecological processes across scales of ecological organisation

Advancing Ecological Understanding and Sustainable Management of Small Pelagic Fish
ABSTRACT Small pelagic fish (SPF) are critical to the trophodynamic structure and function of marine systems and support some of the most valuable and socially important fisheries worldwide. Their “boom and bust” population dynamics, shifts in distribution, and importance as forage resources for other fish stocks place unique challenges to assessing ...

Deep Dark Futures: Foresighting Human Impacts on Mesopelagic Ecosystem Services
This study uses foresighting to explore four plausible future scenarios of human activity affecting mesopelagic ecosystem services; provisioning, regulating, supporting and cultural. Using participatory scenario development, qualitative network modelling and indicator design, we assess systemic risks and early warning signals linked to harvest, climate
