Latitudinal effect on the structure of snake–prey interaction networks is mediated by snake species richness

Ecography, EarlyView.
Despite the growing number of studies on trophic networks in recent decades, there are still important gaps in our understanding of how these networks are structured across broad environmental gradients. These gaps are even greater in some groups of terrestrial vertebrates, such as snakes, requiring a cohesive synthesis of their broader trophic ...

Climate‐driven resource availability drives medium‐ and broad‐scale temporal changes in owl–prey interactions over 24 years in a semi‐arid ecosystem

Ecography, EarlyView.
Predator–prey interactions are vital to ecosystem functioning but may be disrupted by climate change. We investigated a food‐web network involving three owl species over 24 years in a semi‐arid ecosystem at Bosque Fray Jorge National Park, Chile.

Topography constrains the climatic response of treeline migration in Taiwan's subalpine forests

Ecography, EarlyView.
Treelines are moving upslope, but the rates and drivers differ among different regions, globally. Many studies have examined the relationship between treeline movement and climate change, particularly rising temperature, while the role of topographical factors has received much less attention, despite the longstanding recognition of its importance.

Habitat Heterogeneity and Endemism in Mountain Ecosystems

Mountain ecosystems concentrate disproportionate biodiversity and endemism globally -- approximately 25% ofterrestrial biodiversity occurs in mountain regions covering only 22% of land area -- driven by high habitat heterogeneityacross steep environmental gradients in elevation, aspect, soil, and microclimate that generate diverse ecological ...
