Aperiodic Clustered and Periodic Hexagonal Vegetation Spot Arrays Explained by Inhomogeneous Environments and Climate Trends in Arid Ecosystems

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 21, 16 November 2025.
Abstract Due to climate change, overgrazing, and deforestation, arid ecosystems are vulnerable to desertification and land degradation. As aridity increases, vegetation cover loses spatial homogeneity and self‐organizes into heterogeneous vegetation patterns, a step before a catastrophic shift to bare soil.

Lithobiomes Heterogeneity and Geographic Distance Shape the Landscape Genomics Within Brazilian Mountain Systems

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 11, November 2025.
Genomic analyses of Paepalanthus calvus across Brazilian montane ecosystems reveal strong population structure shaped by geographic distance and lithological heterogeneity. Fine‐scale edaphoclimatic factors are the main predictors of genetic divergence among distinct lithobiomes, underscoring the role of substrate‐driven ecological isolation and local ...

Geography, Environmental Conditions and Life History Shape Patterns of Within‐Population Phenotypic Variation in North American Birds

open access: yesEcology Letters, Volume 28, Issue 11, November 2025.
Intraspecific variation is a fundamental component of biodiversity, shaping species interactions and coexistence dynamics. While numerous mechanisms have been proposed to shape the degree of phenotypic variation within species, many remain largely untested or poorly explored at broad spatial and taxonomic scales.
