Pre‐industrial land‐use limits contemporary shrub encroachment in the French Alps

Ecography, EarlyView.
Shrub encroachment has become a global phenomenon in recent decades. While global warming in the Arctic is often cited as the primary cause, human‐managed mountain regions have experienced intense historical land‐use that may also play a considerable role.

Short‐term effects of soil texture, biochar, manure, and tillage practices on warm‐climate forage yields and nutrient content

Grassland Research
Background Biochar (BC) amendment to soils can affect crop yields negatively, especially during the first season following application, by binding essential nutrients; however, little data exist on its effects on warm‐climate forage yields and nutritive ...

‘SiteTool': a ‘Shiny' application for field site selection and evaluation

Ecography, EarlyView.
Field studies are fundamental to ecological research, yet many studies rely on unspecified or convenience‐based methods for site selection, potentially introducing bias that can compromise research results. Remote‐sensing data provides a quantitative way to evaluate potential sites without expensive pilot visits; however, interacting with spatial data ...

Inverse sky islands: lowland river valleys drive microbial divergence while high elevations select for convergence in massive mountain ecosystems

Ecography, EarlyView.
Mountain ecosystems are often interpreted through the lens of the ‘sky island' model, where high‐elevation habitats function as isolated archipelagos. However, this model's applicability to massive, topographically complex mountain ranges where highlands are continuous and lowlands are fragmented remains untested.

Over three‐quarters of earthworm species lack protection in China, a crisis exacerbated by climate change

Ecography, EarlyView.
Earthworms, as ‘ecosystem engineers', play a crucial role in regulating ecosystem functions and shaping community structures. Due to climate change, earthworms face severe survival pressures and extinction risks. However, whether conservation efforts targeting aboveground biodiversity can cover the long‐neglected earthworm diversity remains unknown. To

Integrated transcriptome and proteome analyses reveal potential mechanisms in Stipa breviflora underlying adaptation to grazing

Grassland Research
Background Long‐term overgrazing has led to severe degradation of grasslands, posing a significant threat to the sustainable use of grassland resources.

Highly Efficient and Salt‐Tolerant Broom‐like Bamboo Solar Evaporator: Constructing Multiscale Open Gaps to Enhance Water Transportation and Vapor Diffusion

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
A bamboo fiber aggregation‐based broom‐like evaporator with open interstitial spaces for water transport and vapor diffusion was designed that provided extensive air–liquid interfaces for facilitating fast vapor diffusion and avoiding the formation of high‐humidity zones.
