Developing a macroecology for human‐altered ecosystems

Ecography, EarlyView.
Although anthropogenically‐induced ecological disruptions are fundamentally important in defining ecosystem properties, they are largely overlooked by macroecological theory. Anthropogenic disruptions and their effects are generally not comparable to one another, nor to disturbances that are part of natural disturbance regimes.

Resilience and synergy/trade-off relationship of soil-vegetation system in dump reclamation of surface coal mines on the Loess Plateau

Meitan xuebao
The interaction and feedback between soil and vegetation will promote the restoration of damaged mine ecosystems towards a virtuous cycle, especially in surface mine dump site reclamation areas.

Non‐stationary forest responses to hotter droughts: a temporal perspective considering the role of past legacies

Ecography, EarlyView.
Global change is altering forests worldwide, with multiple consequences for ecosystem functioning. Temporal changes in climate, and extreme, compounded weather events like hotter droughts are affecting the demography, composition and function of forests, leading to a highly uncertain future.

Disturbance types play a key role in post-disturbance vegetation recovery in boreal forests of Northeast China

Ecological Indicators
Understanding the patterns and effects of disturbances is important to predict post-disturbance vegetation recovery trajectories and inform adaptive recovery strategies.

Modelling forest management within a global vegetation model (ORCHIDEE)

, 2008
Forests have an essential carbon function, removing each year about 20% of global anthropogenic CO2 emissions. Models have been designed to quantify the distribution of CO2 fluxes and ecosystem carbon dynamics at the global scale, but these global vegetation models usually do not account for management and stand structure.

‘MultiTraits': an integrated R package for analysis and visualization of multidimensional plant traits

Ecography, EarlyView.
The multidimensional characteristics of plant traits and their trade‐offs are central to ecology. However, there is a lack of systematic and standardized tools for analyzing these intricate relationships. To fill this gap, we developed the ‘MultiTraits' R package, which incorporates four complementary analytical modules: competitors–stress tolerators ...

Habitat complexity and prey composition shape an apex predator's habitat use across contrasting landscapes

Ecography, EarlyView.
The spatial ecology of stalk‐and‐ambush predators like the Eurasian lynx Lynx lynx depends on prey availability and environmental features, yet the relative roles of these factors remain unclear at large spatial scales. In this study, we analysed lynx habitat use across central and southern Finland using snow‐track data from the Wildlife Triangle ...
