Assessing soil and native high Andean grassland quality under grazing: A case study from the wet Puna of Peru

open access: yesGrassland Science, EarlyView.
Abstract High Andean grasslands are vulnerable to changes in their nutritional quality and carbon sequestration capacity, especially in grazing systems. This study evaluated soil quality and native grasses by measuring carbon, physicochemical parameters, and the nutritional quality of predominant species in the wet Puna of Junín, Peru.

Evolutionary and environmental drivers of dry‐season deciduousness in a legume genus

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Leaf deciduousness is a key drought‐avoidance strategy in tropical flora, reducing water loss during seasonal dry periods. While winter‐deciduousness in temperate regions is well‐understood, the evolutionary and environmental drivers of dry‐season deciduousness remain poorly explored.

Vegetation trajectories over 150 years of temporary ponds created in the Camargue delta (Southern France)

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Temporary ponds in the Mediterranean climate have a high conservation value, but many have been severely destroyed or degraded. Pond restoration and new pond creation have been engaged widely. Evaluations of the success of such operations are generally carried out over 10–15 years and show divergent results over this timeframe. In
