Shrub biomass was directly determined by mean winter temperature and soil pH, whereas species richness had no significant direct effect. Climatic factors modulated the biodiversity–ecosystem functioning relationship indirectly through biomass, underscoring winter temperature as a critical driver for predicting ecosystem responses to climate change ...

We analyzed long‐term camera‐trap monitoring data of rare threatened mammal species in Southeast Asian mangrove habitats. We applied a multi‐species hierarchical occupancy framework to estimate baseline occupancy and detection probabilities, habitat associations, anthropogenic effects and temporal trends.

Seasonal dynamism or model realism: What drives better predictions of landscape connectivity?
Abstract Connectivity modeling is central to conservation science, yet most studies assume static landscapes and fixed species‐habitat preferences, thus overlooking seasonal dynamics. Additionally, many rely on simplistic species‐habitat associations rather than realistic movement models that mechanistically capture animal behavior.

Compounding effects of cattle, wild ungulates, and beaver impede riparian restoration
Abstract Planting native woody vegetation is a common restoration practice to increase stream shade, an important salmonid habitat recovery strategy in the interior Pacific Northwest (PNW, USA). Herbivory by domestic livestock and wild mammals, a ubiquitous disturbance in PNW riparian zones, is a common barrier to survival and growth of plantings ...

Abstract Herbivory shapes plant invasion outcomes, yet its role in aquatic plant invasions under artificial light at night (ALAN) remains poorly understood. We conducted three experiments using an invasive macrophyte Myriophyllum aquaticum, a native macrophyte community comprising Vallisneria natans, Hydrilla verticillata, Myriophyllum spicatum, as ...

ABSTRACT Disasters exacerbated by climate change have prompted adaptation measures, including seawall heightening, which is an effective approach to protecting coastal areas. However, the combined effect of rising sea levels and tsunamis can create a compound coastal hazard, in which long‐term sea level rise amplifies the impact of tsunamis.

Mapping linear water erosion across Mato Grosso revealed spatially concentrated critical areas rather than a uniform distribution. Erosion foci were more frequent in environmentally fragile landscapes and areas of land‐use conflict, highlighting where monitoring and soil‐conservation actions should be prioritized.

This study investigates the use of repeat lidar to detect changes in streambank erosion in an urban area by comparing lidar‐based results with field metrics. Results highlight the usefulness of using repeat lidar to detect erosion city‐wide and the importance of in‐field visits.
