Predicting global intraspecific trait variation of grasses

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Plant traits are important for understanding community assembly and ecosystem processes, yet our understanding of intraspecific trait variation (ITV) is limited. This gap in our knowledge is partially because collecting trait data across a species' entire range is impractical, let alone across the ranges of multiple species within a plant family. Using

The effects of climate on bat morphology across space and time

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
According to Bergmann's and Allen's rules, climate change may drive morphological shifts in species, affecting body size and appendage length. These rules predict that species in colder climates tend to be larger and have shorter appendages to improve thermoregulation. Bats are thought to be sensitive to climate and are therefore expected to respond to

How many trees are there in the North American boreal forest?

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Boreal forests, the largest terrestrial biome on Earth, are highly varied in local tree density. Despite previous attempts to estimate tree density in boreal forests, the accuracy of the estimation is unknown, leaving the question how many trees there are in boreal forests largely unanswered. Here, we compiled tree density data from 4367 plots in North

Alien fish shift the biomass distribution towards a bottom-heavy pyramid in the Pearl River Basin, China

open access: yesEcological Indicators
The effects of biological invasion on aquatic ecosystems have been widely evaluated, with varying effects at the population and food web levels. However, the effects of invasive alien fish on trophic cascades, biomass distribution, and population ...
