Reproductive phenology influences ecosystem functioning and climate sensitivity in tropical montane cloud forests, but phase‑specific climatic thresholds and the temporal coupling between flowering and fruiting remain poorly quantified over decadal scales. We analyzed a 36‑year monthly record (1983–2018) from a Venezuelan cloud forest (15 focal species)

Long‐lived plants facing anthropogenic disturbance often exhibit recruitment failure despite persistent reproductive adults, generating extinction debt masked by longevity. However, whether adult presence reliably reflects environmental suitability for recruitment remains unclear.

Global patterns of treeline predictability and the gap between the forest and the treeline
The alpine treeline is the highest elevation at which trees can grow, which is assumed to be controlled by temperature and globally predictable. However, many upper forest limits (UFLs) do not reach this elevation, due natural factors and human disturbance.

Nested Carbon Governance in Southeast Asia: Towards Just Nature‐Based Solutions?
ABSTRACT Nature‐based solutions (NbS) have gained prominence as an integrated approach to addressing climate change and biodiversity loss while supporting sustainable development. Yet, their implementation across Southeast Asia remains fragmented and often contested.

ABSTRACT This study examines how natural climate solutions (NCS) are institutionalised through carbon market governance in tropical contexts, focusing on Brazil's emerging Emissions Trading System (SBCE). It contributes to debates on the effectiveness, equity and governance of nature‐based climate action by analysing how carbon market instruments ...

Study of Damage to Shutters Exposed to a Vegetation Fire: Definition of Vulnerability Thresholds
ABSTRACT This study examines the fire behavior of wooden, PVC, and aluminum shutters through laboratory and large‐scale experiments. Laboratory tests were conducted using a cone calorimeter to assess the ignitability of the PVC and wooden shutters, focusing on the critical heat flux of ignition, ignition time and critical Flux Time Product (FTP ...
