Antarctica may be vulnerable to invasion by Poa annua from a range of populations around the globe

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 1, January 2026.
Poa annua is capable of Antarctic invasion regardless of the propagule source and may become even more dangerous under climate warming. Therefore, the protection of Antarctica may be even more difficult in the future, as the survival barrier will be less restrictive. Specific management implications include minimizing the pressure of P.

Hydrochorous Dispersal of Diaspores in a Reconnected Floodplain: Distribution Patterns and Potential for the Development of Floodplain Habitats

open access: yesApplied Vegetation Science, Volume 29, Issue 1, January/March 2026.
Dike relocation reconnected a section of the Elbe River to its floodplain, thereby restoring a more natural flooding regime, and hydrochorous dispersal of diaspores. Low areas received the most abundant and diverse diaspore deposition, which was dominated by herbaceous species characteristic of open floodplain habitats.

Bedeutung der Megaherbivoren-Beweidung für die Renaturierung artenreicher Feuchtgrünländer auf ehemaligen Ackerflächen [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Species-rich wet grasslands in floodplains are on focus of European nature conservation policy. However, since the seventies of the last century large areas with grasslands in floodplains have been meliorated, ploughed and used for intensive cropping in ...

A New Method of Fruit Marking for Studies on Chiropterochory

open access: yesBiotropica, Volume 58, Issue 1, January 2026.
We used edible glitter to mark 15,526 fruits of three chiropterochorous plants at 700, 1000, 2000, and 3200 m from a bat roost in Brazil's caatinga. Glitter from all distances was detected at the roost, allowing the identification of specific feeding areas accessed, providing a new approach for zoochory studies.

Functional Guilds Mediate the Effects of Woody Encroachment on the Ground Layer in the Brazilian Cerrado

open access: yesJournal of Vegetation Science, Volume 37, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
After 60 years without fire, as tree biomass increases, the Cerrado vegetation is still losing biodiversity. Exploring what happens at the ground layer, we found a strong functional bias in the battle among species to survive in the shade. There are clear losers and winners, the last driving the plant community to a forest structure, composition, and ...

Long‐term assessment of the Moss Layer Transfer Technique for the restoration of Sphagnum‐dominated peatlands

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Introduction Peatlands are crucial for carbon storage and biodiversity but face increasing human degradation. The Moss Layer Transfer Technique (MLTT) has emerged as an effective method for restoring Sphagnum‐dominated vegetation in post‐extracted horticultural peatlands. Objectives This study evaluates vegetation restoration trajectories over

Reaction of Coniferous Forest Vegetation to Particulate Deposition Under Alkaline Pressure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The aim of this study was to determine direction, rate and character of the changes in coniferous forest communities caused by anthropogenic stress factors (alkaline emission and imission) changing with time.
