Palaeoecological studies reporting long‐term development histories of subarctic fens—explicitly, orohemiarctic peatlands—are scarce, and overall, permafrost‐free peatlands located in the immediate vicinity of permafrost zones have received little attention in Fennoscandia. Here, we use a multiproxy approach to study the millennial‐scale dynamics of two

Late Quaternary Montane Forest Dynamics From Equatorial East Africa: A Biome Perspective
ABSTRACT Aim Understanding environmental change over large spatial and temporal scales requires working at a broad ecological scale to enable cross‐site comparisons. This allows data‐based comparisons to dynamic vegetation model outputs, with utility for climate and land cover modelling.

Aquatic community response to volcanic eruptions on the Ecuadorian Andean flank: evidence from the palaeoecological record [PDF]
Aquatic ecosystems in the tropical Andes are under increasing pressure from human modification of the landscape (deforestation and dams) and climatic change (increase of extreme events and 1.5 °C on average temperatures are projected for AD 2100 ...

Spatial distribution patterns and formation of global spermatophytes
Summary: The global Spermatophyte Spatial Evolutionary System defines 18 distribution types and six supertypes across three floristic elements, primarily formed between the Eocene and Miocene and shaped by climate, long‐distance dispersal, and tectonic movement, revealing that similar distribution patterns of spermatophytes were driven by comparable ...

Cyperaceae endémicas del Perú [PDF]
La familia Cyperaceae es reconocida en el Perú por presentar 28 géneros y 230 especies (Brako & Zarucchi, 1993; Ulloa Ulloa et al., 2004), todas herbáceas. En este trabajo reconocemos siete endemismos en seis géneros. Se asignó las categorías de amenaza de la UICN a cinco especies.

Genome Architecture and Speciation in Plants and Animals
ABSTRACT There have been numerous treatments of specific topics in speciation, but surprisingly few papers have compared patterns and processes of speciation across different organismal groups. In this review, we partially address this gap by asking how variation in genome architecture impacts speciation across the plant and animal kingdoms.

The contemporary interaction of climate and disturbance drives vegetation composition and species distribution shifts, making their respective roles difficult to disentangle. This study describes the long‐term ruderal plant species distributions along the ‘Rallarvägen' in Abisko, subarctic Sweden.
