High Densities of Large Herbivores Rapidly Disrupt Ecosystem Integrity

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 6, June 2026.
Human‐driven increases in large herbivore populations are emerging as a widespread global change pressure on terrestrial ecosystems. Using the largest hectare‐scale herbivore density manipulation experiment conducted to date, we show that high deer densities rapidly disrupt ecosystem integrity across multiple dimensions of biodiversity and ecosystem ...

Functional traits predict changes in floral phenology under climate change in a highly diverse Mediterranean community

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 5, Page 1270-1285, May 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Plants are shifting their flowering phenology in response to climate change, but trends differ between species and communities. Functional traits can largely explain how different species respond to climate change by shifting their phenology, and can therefore help ...

La flora leñosa establecida luego de las quemas en el valle de Chanchamayo - Selva central del Perú

open access: yes, 2019
En las últimas décadas los incendios forestales producidos en la Selva central de Perú se han incrementado, causando efectos en la vegetación. A través del tiempo estás áreas afectadas por el fuego se han ido regenerando. Sin embargo, informaciones de la

Phytochemical diversity of naturally regenerated plants in a biodiversity enrichment experiment

open access: yesJournal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 3, March 2026.
Tree islands established within an industrial oil palm plantation promoted the recovery of phytochemical diversity through natural regeneration. Ten years after planting, untargeted metabolomics of 76 regenerating woody species detected 27,122 phytochemical features, including many novel compounds. Larger islands supported higher woody species richness

Unraveling the Phenology of the Liana Marcgravia longifolia: Temporal Patterns and Climatic Cues

open access: yesBiotropica, Volume 58, Issue 2, March 2026.
We monitored the reproductive phenology of the Amazonian liana Marcgravia longifolia J. F. Macbr (Marcgraviaceae) for 84 consecutive months in the Peruvian Amazon to quantify the timing, synchrony, and seasonality of flowering and ripe fruiting. Flower presence peaked in August with intermediate synchrony, while ripe fruit presence peaked in November ...

Beyond species means – the intraspecific contribution to global wood density variation

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 6, Page 2630-2651, March 2026.
Summary Wood density is central for estimating vegetation carbon storage and a plant functional trait of great ecological and evolutionary importance. However, the global extent of wood density variation is unclear, especially at the intraspecific level. We assembled the most comprehensive wood density collection to date, including 109 626 records from

Plant functional traits shape the provision of ecosystem services to Indigenous communities in western Amazonia

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 7, Issue 12, Page 3313-3329, December 2025.
Abstract Context. Exploring how Indigenous People interact with plants through their functional traits allows us to understand the ecological bases of plant selection. Functional traits can help explain why certain plants are consistently chosen for specific purposes across diverse cultural contexts.
