Divergent drought responses in two cold desert shrublands
Abstract The frequency and intensity of extreme droughts are projected to increase in the future, yet current research indicates that ecosystem sensitivity to extremes will vary. Despite hundreds of observational and experimental drought studies across ecosystems, the underlying mechanism explaining the inconsistent responses to drought remains poorly ...

High sensitivity of herbaceous legumes to freezing: Insights from a multiyear snow removal study
Abstract Reductions in snow cover resulting from winter climate change are anticipated to increase the intensity of freezing exposure for overwintering herbaceous plants in many northern temperate regions. We examined whether herbaceous legumes, a key functional group responsible for increasing soil nitrogen inputs, are more sensitive to freezing than ...

In temperate, uniform rainfall environments, lucerne is the most reliably productive summer pasture option if soil conditions allow its growth. Chicory is a potential alternative to acidic soils. Good productivity combined with acid soil tolerance favours cocksfoot over tall fescue.

Wild Bee Assemblages and Pollination Networks of Managed Emergent Wetlands in Central New York, USA
Wetlands are underrepresented in wild bee surveys yet we find they host a diversity of bee species and offer important late‐season floral resources. Wetland restoration and management for wildlife in the northeastern United States creates a matrix of freshwater wetland habitat that helps support the landscape's wild bee fauna.

Differential susceptibility and resistance to glyphosate in annual ryegrass and wavy-leaved fleabane [PDF]
Annual ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum) and wavy-leaved fleabane (Conyza bonariensis) were tested, aiming to investigate the dose-response of biotypes of both species to glyphosate. Glyphosate herbicide at doses varying from 0 up to 1.440 g e.a.
