Above‐ and below‐ground phenology of four tree species in mixed forests and monospecific stands
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract The phenology of tree root growth is poorly understood especially for mixed forests. To attempt to fill this knowledge gap, we selected four co‐occurring broadleaf trees species of the European forests (Quercus robur, Carpinus betulus, Tilia cordata and Acer platanoides)

Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Nitrogen (N) deposition strongly affects litter decomposition and nutrient release, thereby reshaping carbon cycling in terrestrial ecosystems. Although most studies have focused on above‐ground litter, the effects of N addition on fine root decomposition and their ...

Habitat and land‐use intensity shape moth community structure across temperate forest and grassland
This study reveals how land‐use intensity, plant diversity, weather and artificial light interact to shape moth diversity across forests and grasslands. Using 300 plots across Germany, we highlight habitat‐specific responses and beta‐diversity patterns, providing novel cross‐habitat insights at an unprecedented spatial scale for temperate nocturnal ...

Apex predators exploit advantageous snow conditions across hunting modes
Advantageous snow conditions—in terms of snow depth and density—are among the most important features of the winter landscape for two apex predators, regardless of hunting strategy. In a warming climate, the knock‐on effects of a diminishing snowpack may reduce the hunting success of multiple large carnivore species.

By integrating remote‐sensing–derived local canopy cover and landscape‐scale forest cover metrics with a multitrophic dataset of 2319 species (plants, aculeata, moths, beetles, birds), we show that high local canopy cover consistently reduces multidiversity across all species and species with different habitat affinity (forest, mixed and open habitats).
