Changes of Potential Suitable Areas for Lynx Under Climate Change in Mohe Area, Daxing'anling Mountains, China

Wildlife Letters, EarlyView.
Climate change drives shifts in suitable habitats for Eurasian lynx and its prey (hare, roe deer) in Mohe, Daxing'anling Mountains. Under RCP scenarios, moderate warming (RCP4.5) promotes substantial habitat expansion, while high‐emission conditions (RCP8.5) lead to strong expansion in the 2050s but slower gains and partial contraction by the 2070s ...

Scientific prospects in soft gamma-ray astronomy enabled by the LAUE project

, 2014
This paper summarizes the development of a successful project, LAUE, supported by the Italian Space Agency (ASI) and devoted to the development of long focal length (up to 100 m) Laue lenses for hard X--/soft gamma--ray astronomy (80-600 keV).

Mycorrhizal symbiosis and environmental conditions shape understory herb diversity in a large temperate forest region

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Understorey herbaceous plants are a vital component of forest biodiversity in temperate forests. However, the mechanisms underlying their community assembly and species coexistence remain poorly understood.

Temporal variations in English Populations of a forest insect pest, the green spruce aphid (Elatobium abietinum), associated with the North Atlantic Oscillation and global warming [PDF]

, 2007
Based on an exceptionally long modern ecological dataset (41 years), it has been possible to show that warm weather in England associated with a positive North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) index causes the spring migration of the green spruce aphid ...

Response of streamflow components and evapotranspiration to changes in tree species composition in a subboreal permafrost watershed in the Greater Khingan Mountains of Northeastern China

Ecological Indicators
Changes in watershed water resources are often linked to land use changes, but the influence of forest structure, especially the composition of tree species, plays a crucial role in hydrological processes.

Le patriarche d’Isola 2000 : un vénérable mélèze des Alpes maritimes (France)

Revue Forestière Française, 2015
Un vénérable mélèze d’Europe (Larix europaea DC. = Larix decidua Miller), encore en vie, se trouve au-dessus d’Isola 2000 (commune d’Isola, Alpes-Maritimes, France), à plus de 2 160 m d’altitude. Son âge a pu être estimé entre 550 et 750 ans. En lui-même,

Warm Spring Weather Alters Calling Phenology of Four Sympatric Early‐Breeding Anurans

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
An unusually warm March in 2024 (“false spring”) followed by freezing temperatures allowed us to assess the impact of a weather event on an amphibian community. The calling activity of all four species was associated with increasing temperature, and the first date of calling was advanced by 11–18 days.
