ABSTRACT Aim Northern populations of temperate tree species evolve under climatic, topographic and edaphic conditions that approach the limits of their ecological tolerance. However, the environmental constraints acting on species abundance are not spatially uniform, and their relative importance can shift markedly from core to northern populations. We

Detecting extirpation: A localized approach to a global problem
The global biodiversity crisis stems from a cascading series of extirpations driving species toward extinction. Addressing this crisis requires methods for early detection of extinction at local scales, where communities can mobilize conservation efforts.

We used pattern recognition software to correct misidentifications in a 15‐year photographic database of the last, vulnerable West African giraffe population in Niger. After revealing substantial methodological errors that had inflated population estimates by nearly 19%, we corrected individual encounter histories and applied capture‐mark‐recapture ...

Niche Dynamics Under Current and Future Climates of South African Plants in France
ABSTRACT Aim While climatic niche dynamics of invasive plants have been increasingly studied worldwide, comparative assessments disentangling niche conservatism from expansion into analogue and non‐analogue climates remain very limited in France. Here, the climatic niche dynamics of four South African plant species established in France were quantified,

The role of vegetation science in the conservation of cultural landscapes [PDF]
Cultural landscapes are defined as the results of the combined action of nature and humans on the territory. Millennia of human presence on most of the Earth resulted in the current existence of many different cultural landscapes, shaped by different ...

Abstract This essay demonstrates how a gender‐informed, more‐than‐human lens can provide new ways to analyse how the role of a queen in forestry management was conceptualised by sixteenth‐century professional men. It explores these ideas as they are presented in a work published by Guillaume Martin, Lieutenant General of the forests and waterways of ...

Abstract Soil water deficits in temperate forests are projected to become more frequent, more severe, and longer in duration. This study aims to quantify the current (1981–2010) and projected (2041–2070) exposure of 17 tree communities to soil water deficit (severity and duration) in southwestern Quebec, Canada, using the Canadian Land Surface Scheme ...

This study aimed to quantify the spatio‐temporal use of breeding environments by the Eurasian curlew in 5 contrasting agricultural landscapes. To this end, 64 individuals were tagged with GPS devices to assess their space use according to their breeding stages and define their foraging habitat selection.
