Functional Ecology, Volume 39, Issue 3, Page 897-911, March 2025.Abstract The ability of plants to successfully regenerate depends on complex physiological and ecological processes, and one of the first vital stages is seed germination, which depends on temperature, light and water availability. Within species variation in seed germination allows differential responses when facing stimuli and is key for adaptation ...

Vertebrate diversity and biomass along a recovery gradient in a lowland tropical forest
Biotropica, Volume 57, Issue 1, January 2025.Deforestation of tropical forests has resulted in large areas of secondary forests with the potential for biodiversity to re‐establish to levels usually found in old‐growth forests. This study shows that diversity and biomass of mammals and birds in regenerating forests can recover to old‐growth levels within a relatively short time.

Ecological Monographs, Volume 94, Issue 3, August 2024.Abstract Peatlands store large amounts of carbon (C), a function potentially threatened by climate change. Peatlands composed of vascular cushion plants are widespread in the northern and central high Andes (páramo, wet and dry puna), but their C dynamics are hardly known.

Plant‐based meat analogues marketed in Catalonia: evaluation of the nutritional profile
Food Risk Assess Europe, Volume 2, Issue 3, July 2024.Abstract In later years, a growing trend is apparent of vegetarian or vegan diets attributable to a number of causes, among of others, consumers’ concern for animal welfare, climate change and, to a lesser degree, for health‐related issues. On a par to this growth, availability of meat analogues in the market has also been on the rise. In this context,
