Coupling in situ and remote sensing data to assess α‐ and β‐diversity over biogeographic gradients
The mapping of plant biodiversity represents a fundamental stage in establishing conservation priorities, particularly in identifying groups of species that share ecological requirements or evolutionary histories. This is often achieved by assessing different spatial diversity patterns in plant population distributions.

This study is an empirical demonstration of the importance of tree species identity cover in shaping the distribution of the herb layer, surpassing the effects of tree diversity alone. By considering the significance of tree species identity cover, we can inform forest management and conservation measures, improve spatial prediction of herb‐layer ...

Towards a global understanding of tree mortality
Summary Rates of tree mortality are increasing globally, with implications for forests and climate. Yet, how and why these trends vary globally remain unknown. Developing a comprehensive assessment of global tree mortality will require systematically integrating data from ground‐based long‐term forest monitoring with large‐scale remote sensing.

Mares glacielles et non glacielles dans le marais salé de l’Isle Verte, estuaire du St-Laurent, Québec [PDF]
Depuis 1904, de nombreuses hypothèses ont été émises pour expliquer l'origine des mares dans les marais salés côtiers. Au Québec, les chercheurs ont favorisé la thèse d'une origine glacielle, alors qu'ailleurs on a fait appel presque essentiellement à ...

Invasion Dynamics of the Alien Amphibian Xenopus laevis in France: Perspectives for Management
ABSTRACT Background Invasive alien species (IAS) are recognised as pervasive drivers of global environmental change and pose significant threats to socio‐ecosystems worldwide. Although much attention is focused on prevalent IAS, the oversight of species that are still contained and approaching critical invasion thresholds raises concern.
