High levels of seed dispersal by a declining wintering population of migratory geese

open access: yesFreshwater Biology, Volume 69, Issue 12, Page 1857-1870, December 2024.
Abstract Ducks are known to be important seed dispersers, but the role of geese in plant dispersal is less clear. Wintering populations of migratory geese are undergoing rapid changes in distribution and habitat use in response to climate change and changes in land use, and the implications for seed dispersal have not previously been studied.

Temperature and palaeolake evolution during a Middle Pleistocene interglacial–glacial transition at the Palaeolithic locality of Schöningen, Germany

open access: yesBoreas, Volume 53, Issue 4, Page 504-524, October 2024.
Biological proxy analyses, element composition, and stable isotope ratios at the Lower Palaeolithic locality of Schöningen provide evidence for repeated variations in climate, hydrology and catchment vegetation cover during MIS 9. Quantitative temperature reconstructions with the Mutual Ostracod Temperature Range method show colder winter temperatures ...

Phenylalanine ammonia‐lyases and 4‐coumaric acid coenzyme A ligases in Chara braunii, Marchantia polymorpha, and Physcomitrium patens as extant model organisms for plant terrestrialization

open access: yesThe Plant Journal, Volume 119, Issue 6, Page 2797-2815, September 2024.
SUMMARY The conquest of land posed severe problems to plants which they had to cope with by adapting biosynthetic capacities. Adaptations to respond to UV irradiation, water loss, pathogen and herbivore defense, and the earth's pull were essential. Chemical compounds alleviating these problems can be synthesized by the phenylpropanoid pathway, the core

Landscape evolution during Holocene transgression of a mid‐latitude low‐relief coastal plain: The southern North Sea

open access: yesEarth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 49, Issue 10, Page 3139-3157, August 2024.
Offshore wind farm datasets record the response of low‐relief coastal landscapes to rising sea levels in the past. The maps show evidence of former terrestrial peatlands, preserved offshore, prior to being covered by the modern North Sea. Abstract Low‐relief coastal landscapes are at major risk of rising sea levels, as vertical changes in relative sea ...

Interactions between stoneworts (Charales) and waterbirds

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 99, Issue 2, Page 390-408, April 2024.
ABSTRACT Stoneworts (Charales) are green algae that represent an important food resource for many waterbird species in Europe and elsewhere. Browsing avian herbivores (e.g. swan, goose, duck and coot species) consume Charales plant vegetative parts, by head‐dipping, up‐ending or diving.

The diversity and coevolution of Rubisco and CO2 concentrating mechanisms in marine macrophytes

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 241, Issue 6, Page 2353-2365, March 2024.
Summary The kinetic properties of Rubisco, the most important carbon‐fixing enzyme, have been assessed in a small fraction of the estimated existing biodiversity of photosynthetic organisms. Until recently, one of the most significant gaps of knowledge in Rubisco kinetics was marine macrophytes, an ecologically relevant group including brown ...

Climate and atmospheric circulation during the Early and Mid‐Holocene inferred from lake‐carbonate oxygen‐isotope records from western Ireland

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, Volume 39, Issue 1, Page 24-36, January 2024.
ABSTRACT The Early to Mid‐Holocene experienced marked climate change over the northern hemisphere mid‐latitudes in response to changing insolation and declining ice volume. Oxygen isotopes from lake sediments provide a valuable climate proxy, encoding information regarding temperature, hydroclimate and moisture source. We present oxygen‐isotope records
