Contrasting Forest Trajectories Drive Changes in Bird Functional Traits
ABSTRACT Aim We investigated how bird functional diversity varies across forest habitat types with distinct successional trajectories, namely (1) natural succession forests, with naturally regenerating forests established on former grasslands; (2) secondary forest remnants resulting from deforestation; and (3) conserved forests.

Niche Position Mediates the Effect of Polyploidy on Geographic Range Size in Clarkia
ABSTRACT Aim Polyploidy has been proposed to result in greater geographic range size in plants because it increases the capacity for adaptation to novel environments; however, the proposed relationship is not found across clades. By contrast, the large genome constraint hypothesis predicts that larger genomes constrain the niche, leading to similar ...

The promise of digital herbarium specimens in large‐scale phenology research
Summary The online mobilization of herbaria has made tens of millions of specimens digitally available, revolutionizing investigations of phenology and plant responses to climate change. We identify two main themes associated with this growing body of research and highlight a selection of recent publications exemplifying: investigating phenology at ...

Summary The Arctic is experiencing some of the world's most rapid changes in climate. Arctic plant flowering time responses to climate change are understudied. Globally, conflicting evidence exists on whether flowering time responses to temperature are evolutionarily conserved.

Summary Digitized herbarium specimens and iNaturalist observations provide invaluable plant biodiversity data. Combining these two data sources could create a more holistic representation of local biodiversity; however, understanding biases inherent to each is critical to determine how to best combine and utilize these data.
