Wood density variation across an Andes‐to‐Amazon elevational gradient
Journal of Ecology, EarlyView.We study how wood density varies along a 3500‐m elevational gradient, spanning from the Andean tree line to the Amazon basin. Our results reveal that wood density decreases from low to mid‐elevations, then increases toward the tree line. These patterns underscore the influence of species composition, life forms such as tree ferns, and local ...

Journal of Ecology, EarlyView.We experimentally disrupted below‐ground microbial communities to test their role in the growth and survival of the seagrass Zostera muelleri under two marine heatwave scenarios. Seagrass leaf growth declined with rhizosphere microbiome disruption across all temperature and sediment conditions.

Journal of Ecology, EarlyView.As temperate tree species require warmer temperatures than boreal species, some thermophilous species, such as white pine, increased in abundance at their northern edge during historically warmer periods. Our data reveal that not all temperate species behaved accordingly: maples were scarce during the warm mid‐Holocene, while their abundance increased ...

Journal of Ecology, EarlyView.Over 7 years, warmer springs were associated with earlier leaf‐out of two temperate forest understorey herbs and of the trees above them, but the effect was stronger for the herbs. This suggests that climate warming will prolong the relatively brief period of high light available to understorey plants in spring, which is a key determinant of their ...
