Understanding Beech Predominance Through Sapling and Adult Demography Along Environmental Gradients

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
We address the question how species abundances are driven by biotic interactions along environmental gradients by applying a demographic population model to NFI data, substantiating a classical ecological theory by Ellenberg: The dominant species in Central European forests outcompetes other tree species only under favorable environmental conditions ...

Checking Wilderness Through Conservation Genetics: The Case of the European Wildcat in the Central Apennines, Italy

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
We developed a species distribution model to assess habitat suitability for the European wildcat across Italy, integrating newly collected occurrence records and mitochondrial DNA data from the Central–Southern Apennines. Forest and grassland cover and elevation emerged as the main predictors of occurrence, with the highest suitability concentrated in ...

Resilience or reassembly: Wildfire–vegetation dynamics in rapidly warming subarctic forests of northwestern Canada

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 17, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Climate‐induced shifts in disturbance regimes are reshaping northern forest ecosystems, where tree species are at their geographic range limit. Northern Canada has warmed over twice as much as the mean global increase since 1950, providing a critical context to study climate–fire–vegetation interactions under rapid warming.

Predicting drought‐induced tree mortality in Swiss beech forests hinges upon predisposing and inciting factors

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 17, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract The recent increase in the frequency and severity of drought‐induced tree mortality events in low‐elevation, mesic European forests poses considerable challenges to forest management and requires an understanding of its causes. Here, we propose a novel, parsimonious framework for integrating the factors underlying drought‐induced tree ...
