GUBIC: The global urban biological invasions compendium for plants
Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 6, Issue 1, January–March 2025.By integrating multiple data sources, we compiled a Global Urban Biological Invasions Compendium (GUBIC) for vascular plants representing 553 urban centres from 61 countries across every continent except Antarctica. This database includes 8140 non‐native plant species from 253 families.

Servicesheds connect people to the landscapes upon which they depend
People and Nature, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 112-126, January 2025.Abstract Ecosystem services (ES) are benefits people receive from nature. To sustain these benefits, we need to spatially connect communities benefitting from specific ES with landscape features that generate the ES. A variety of process‐based models support ES assessments by estimating the biophysical supply of ES that comes from landscapes.

Canadian Geographer / Le géographe canadien, Volume 69, Issue 1, Spring / printemps 2025.Abstract North America is characterized by an expansive continental plain that has been described as platter‐flat. Yet this central continental plain includes isolated uplands that some people call mountains. The hill‐mountain muddle is a classic problem of geomorphology, arising from the challenge of discriminating continuous, attached forms.

Amélioration des méthodes de dimensionnement des ouvrages de génie végétal en berges de cours d’eau par une approche empirique [PDF]
Sciences, Eaux & Territoires, 2016 Entre terre et eau, les berges sont des milieux d'une grande richesse floristique et faunistique qui jouent un rôle majeur de corridors biologiques. Si l’érosion des berges est un phénomène naturel qui contribue à la dynamique et à la diversité des cours

Canadian Geographer / Le géographe canadien, Volume 69, Issue 1, Spring / printemps 2025.Abstract Development of high‐resolution temperature models in mountain environments must include consideration of the influence of complex topography and seasonality on thermal distribution across horizontal and vertical scales. Small‐bodied organisms, including arthropods, in montane and alpine ecosystems inhabit environments for which local ...

The Demographic Basis of Population Growth: A 32‐Year Transient Life Table Response Experiment
Ecology Letters, Volume 27, Issue 12, December 2024.We examined how transient dynamics influence empirical understanding of the links between changes in demographic rates and population growth using a 32‐year study of Columbian ground squirrels. Over a rapid 10‐year increase, followed by a 2‐year crash, and a gradual 19‐year recovery, transient LTRE showed that demographic stochasticity accounted for ...

Diversity and Distributions, Volume 30, Issue 10, October 2024.Abstract Aim Human‐induced environmental changes result in habitat loss and fragmentation, impacting wildlife population genetic structure and evolution. Urbanised and geographically peripheral areas often represent unfavourable environments, reducing connectivity among populations and causing higher population genetic differentiation and lower intra ...

Global Change Biology, Volume 30, Issue 10, October 2024.This study explores whether males and females of an ecologically important copepod differ in their ability to withstand the isolated and combined effects of hypoxia and marine heatwave events. We report that males appear more vulnerable than females to the conditions tested, providing first‐hand evidence of the importance of considering sex‐specific ...

Why are there so many definitions of eutrophication?
Ecological Monographs, Volume 94, Issue 3, August 2024.Abstract Because of the first observations in the 1900s of the oligotrophic and eutrophic states of lakes, researchers have been interested in the process that makes lakes become turbid because of high phytoplankton biomass. Definitions of eutrophication have multiplied and diversified since the mid‐20th century, more than for any other ecological ...
