Informing elephant management through demographic snapshots

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Understanding demography is vital for managing species successfully; however, for elephants, traditional surveys are both costly and labor‐intensive. This study presents a cost‐effective method for estimating age structures of savannah elephants in southern Africa, revealing how water provisioning, density dependence, and fertility control influence ...

Living on the edge – physiological tolerance to frost and drought explains range limits of 35 European tree species

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Species distribution models are key to evaluate how climate change threatens European forests and tree species distributions. However, current models struggle to integrate ecophysiological processes. Mechanistic models are complex and have high parameter requirements.
