Advancing causal inference in ecology: Pathways for biodiversity change detection and attribution
Abstract Understanding the causes of biodiversity change is essential for addressing environmental challenges. While causal attribution has advanced in other fields, ecologists remain cautious about causal claims or misinterpret predictive models as causal.

ABSTRACT Aim Plant diversity is essential for ecosystem stability and the delivery of ecosystem services. While climate, through energy and water (i.e., productivity), is the primary driver of the latitudinal diversity gradient (LDG), edaphic conditions modulate resource storage and heterogeneity. The role of bedrock‐driven edaphic gradients in shaping

1999 is drawing to a close, and except for worries about the computer bug the countdown to 2000 appears not to be exciting millenarian fears. Let's just hope that this new date line does not have consequences like those for the unfortunate passengers shipwrecked on the island of the day before as related by Umberto Eco.

Range Shift and Climatic Refugia for Alpine Lichens Under Climate Change
ABSTRACT Aim The mountain biodiversity is highly threatened by climate change, with many species facing habitat reduction and/or local extinction. Poikilohydric organisms like lichens are extremely sensitive to environmental conditions and changes. A comprehensive overview of the impact of climate change on the future distribution of lichens is still ...

Finding the proper methodology for geodiversity assessment : a recent approach in Brazil and Portugal [PDF]
A methodology for the quantitative assessment of geodiversity was defined and tested at various scales. It was applied to the Xingu River Basin, Amazon, Brazil (about 510,000 km2), Paraná state, Brazil (about 200,000 km2), and Portugal mainland (about 89,
