Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Decomposition is the transformation of dead organic matter into its inorganic constituents. In most biomes, decomposition rates can be accurately predicted with simple mathematical models, but these models have long under‐predicted decomposition in globally extensive ...

Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract The nested subset pattern (nestedness) has been widely used to explain species distributions in island and fragmented systems. Mountain sky islands serve as critical natural laboratories for understanding the evolutionary consequences of geographic isolation and climate

Seasonal body mass dynamics mediate life‐history trade‐offs in a hibernating mammal
We tested a suite of ecological hypotheses to explain variation in seasonal body mass dynamics of a fat‐storing mammalian hibernator. We further demonstrated that pre‐hibernation mass gain in ground squirrels mediates an annual allocation trade‐off between current and future reproduction as the squirrels forage and rear young under predation risk ...

We reveal that early stages of deadwood decomposition follow ecological rules of ephemeral resource patches. By tracking beetle communities over 12 years, we show how decomposition dynamics shape community assembly patterns, highlighting the importance of continuous deadwood input for sustaining saproxylic beetles in temperate forests.
