Role of methanotrophy in a high‐methane emitting thermokarst lake
Abstract Thermokarst (thaw) lakes are projected to be an increasing source of atmospheric methane (CH4), a potent greenhouse gas, as climate warms and permafrost thaws. However, the magnitude of CH4 cycling, particularly the role of aerobic CH4 oxidation (methanotrophy), among thermokarst lakes, is not well constrained.

Bryophytes are important forest ecosystem elements, being an integral part of biodiversity. Genetic studies contribute to bryophyte population ecology by helping to understand species historical distribution patterns and genetic diversity at different scales.

Initial colonization by bryophytes and ferns during primary succession on Nishinoshima, Japan
Volcanic islands that have experienced complete vegetation loss following recent eruptions provide rare opportunities to observe the earliest stages of ecosystem recovery. Nishinoshima, an oceanic island located approximately 1000 km south of mainland Japan, underwent major volcanic activity between 2013 and 2020, eradicating all pre‐existing ...

Metal contents in epiphytic bryophytes growing at Yahata Nishi-ku, Kitakyushu City and its vicinity were measured. Measurements were made both on the contents in the plant body of a single species Clastobryella kusatsuensis and on those of the whole ...

Abstract While climate‐driven increases in wildfires are altering the composition and function of Arctic ecosystems, the impact of burn severity on longer‐term changes in community composition and ecosystem fluxes remains less understood, creating uncertainty in estimates of the biome's carbon storage capacity.

The fossil record of bryophytes is poor compared to that of vascular plants, and the Australian record is particularly sparse. Bryophytes are probably rarely fossilised because they lack the resistant structures typically found in fossil vascular plants:

Restoration of temperate forestry‐drained fens brings back key species and ecosystem function
Our results highlight that rewetting forestry‐drained temperate fens can lead to partial vegetation recovery and jump‐start peat formation. Abstract Fen peatlands act as carbon sinks and are hotspots for specialized species, but a large proportion of fens have been drained for agricultural or forestry use.

Together, these results highlight the need for margin‐specific management guidance for perennial biomass crops and demonstrate how niche‐based modelling can inform the design of effective agri‐environment options. Abstract The challenge of energy production against a target of net‐zero emissions has led to the growth of policies promoting the ...

Coexistence, not just environment, reshapes an organism's elementome. Growing mosses alone versus in mixtures revealed high‐dimensional shifts in bioelement concentrations that scaled with community elemental diversity, giving the first experimental support for the biogeochemical niche hypothesis.

ABSTRACT The Antarctic Peninsula shows a fast‐rising temperature trend, increasing the risk of colonization by non‐native species, such as the invasive Poa annua. The “cryptic diversity” of largely unknown microscopic propagules in soil and snow poses a significant threat, as traditional morphological surveys are inadequate.
