Integrated biogeography of planktonic and sedimentary bacterial communities in the Yangtze River
Microbiome, 2018 Bacterial communities are essential to the biogeochemical cycle in riverine ecosystems. However, little is presently known about the integrated biogeography of planktonic and sedimentary bacterial communities in large rivers.

Foliar pH, an emerging plant functional trait: Biogeography and variability across northern China
, 2019 Aims Plant pH is a functional trait deserving more attention than the current few studies at local scales, given its roles in nutrient cycling and physiological processes. How plant pH varies and is regulated at large scales remain unclear.

Ecography, EarlyView.Species with small ranges tend to occur with other range‐limited species in biodiversity hotspots, a pattern that has motivated both macroecological theory and practical conservation planning. However, not all range‐limited species follow this pattern.

Disentangling the interactive effects of anthropogenic disturbances on biodiversity
Ecography, EarlyView.Anthropogenic activity threatens biodiversity through climate change, habitat fragmentation, and increasing frequency and scale of disturbance. Various theoretical studies have sought to shed light on how these factors could promote or hinder the coexistence of species. However, our understanding of the relative importance of, and interactions between,

Parasitoid insects unveil complex patterns of functional change across elevational bands
Ecography, EarlyView.Climate change is rapidly reshaping how insects interact with their environment, potentially disrupting ecosystem complexity and essential functioning. While functional homogenisation has been extensively investigated for charismatic insect taxa, particularly pollinators, the response of parasitoids remains largely overlooked.

GIFT – A Global Inventory of Floras and Traits for macroecology and biogeography
bioRxiv, 2019 To understand how traits and evolutionary history shape the geographic distribution of plant life on Earth, we need to integrate high-quality and global-scale distribution data with functional and phylogenetic information.

Biogeography is the major determinant of plant diversity in European forests
, 2014 Europe forests are the result of biogeography, ecology and human transformation. This study compares the effects of biogeography and ecology to determine the plant diversity of European forests using a representative sample of 3100 plots all over ...

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.Machine learning surrogates accurately predict drill cuttings transport from computational fluid dynamics data, with Reynolds number dominating system behavior. While tree‐based models excel in accuracy, Gaussian process regression provides physically consistent, smooth predictions essential for reliable drilling simulations.

Spatial metagenomic characterization of microbial biogeography in the gut
Nature Biotechnology, 2019 Spatial structuring is important for the maintenance of natural ecological systems1,2. Many microbial communities, including the gut microbiome, display intricate spatial organization3–9.
