High‐elevation endemic plants predicted to lose habitat from changing climate in Washington State

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise High‐elevation plants face unique challenges from potential climate change impacts that will likely require upslope migration into increasingly smaller suitable habitat. This situation is particularly acute for endemic species that by definition occupy small geographic ranges.

Reproductive stages in lowbush blueberry (Vaccinium angustifolium) occur earlier with increasing temperature

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Climate change is altering the timing of many plant phenological events, yet most studies focus on flowering, with less attention given to later reproductive stages such as fruit development and ripening. Vaccinium angustifolium (lowbush blueberry) is an important perennial berry species that may be sensitive to these changes.

The role of coastal defence structures in channeling production in coastal ecosystems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
This study assessed the interaction of coastal defence structures (CDSs), namely shore-parallel‘low crested breakwater structures’ (LCSs), design features and hydrodynamic regime on thequantity and timings of macroalgae deposition.

Numerical investigation of the influence of coastal structure removal on sand spit morphology

open access: yesApplied Ocean Research
The application of hard engineering solutions in coastal protection has been controversial because of their potential environmental impacts. Selective removal of intrusive coastal structures offers an alternative to address the coastal erosion problem ...

Success of coastal sage scrub restoration is influenced by local adaptations of shrub species

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Restoring plant communities is increasingly challenging with climate change. While practitioners have traditionally used local seed sources, many are recommending assisted migration, possibly from more extreme environments such as inland rather than coastal environments, for restoration.

Noncanonical Peloruside A Biosynthesis by an Uncultivated Verrucomicrobiota Symbiont

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Noncanonical biochemistry of the peloruside PKS characterized in this work, comprising double bond generation by a noncanonical tridomain (blue), acetyl‐CoA recycling (orange), and proofreading systems (purple and yellow). The Z‐double bond is installed by TEB1 through O‐acetylation and acetate elimination. The acyl ligase PelB (AL, orange) selectively
