Forest and fire drive moose (deníe) detections near their northern range limit
One way to understand species range shifts in response to anthropogenic climate change is to study populations living at the limit of climate and resource suitability. Moose Alces alces (deníe in Dënesųłıné) generally require forest–wetland landscape complexes but are increasingly seen across the forest–tundra transition at their northern range limit ...

Climate change drives shifts in suitable habitats for Eurasian lynx and its prey (hare, roe deer) in Mohe, Daxing'anling Mountains. Under RCP scenarios, moderate warming (RCP4.5) promotes substantial habitat expansion, while high‐emission conditions (RCP8.5) lead to strong expansion in the 2050s but slower gains and partial contraction by the 2070s ...

Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Flowers with deep corollas are frequently associated with nectar robbing, a behaviour that often reduces pollen transfer and seed production. Robbing scars, however, may further affect plant reproductive success through rainwater entry into corolla tubes.

Community assembly on inland cliffs is context‐dependent
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Under harsh environmental conditions, community assembly processes are expected to drive pronounced functional convergence, with communities dominated by stress‐tolerant species.
