Wildlife Letters, EarlyView.Asiatic black bears in Russia face conservation threats such as habitat destruction and fragmentation, which exacerbate food shortages caused by crop failures. This study explores an innovative approach to rehabilitating bears that abandon hibernation in mid‐winter due to extreme exhaustion by providing supplemental food near their den sites.

The Journal of American Culture, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Tim Burton's Christmas trilogy, Batman Returns, The Nightmare Before Christmas and Edward Scissorhands are all characterized by his trademark features. These include characters with ambiguous identities, apparently “normal” worlds adjacent to spaces associated with difference and exclusion, and the inevitable intrusion of the latter into the ...

Positive mixture effects in pine–oak forests during drought are context‐dependent
Plant Biology, EarlyView.Mixture effects in drought‐stressed pine‐oak forests are context‐dependent, with Gambel oak and ponderosa pine benefiting from their complementarity under semi‐arid conditions. Abstract The increasing severity and frequency of droughts will play a pivotal role in shaping future forest ecosystems worldwide.

Recurrent hot droughts cause persistent legacy effects in a temperate Scots Pine forest
Plant Biology, EarlyView.A series of hot drought events caused persistent legacy effects in a Scots Pine forest, with severe negative impacts on ecosystem carbon fluxes. Abstract Recent hot‐dry events have caused significant impacts and legacy effects in temperate ecosystems. Here, we investigate legacy effects of the 2018 hot drought on a Pinus sylvestris L.

Potential climate warming effects on the distribution of an invasive alien pest species
Ecological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 1, Page 113-125, February 2026.Drosophila suzukii (SWD) has low resistance to heat waves. The incidence of SWD differed between Illyric‐ and Pannonian climate zone. Desert days (frequency) only increased in the Pannonian zone. Abstract Climate warming can be a powerful driver for the establishment and further spread of alien species by lowering the abiotic resistance of native ...

A multi‐scale assessment of interior Douglas‐fir tree mortality for hazard and risk assessments
Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 1, January 2026.Abstract Land managers use hazard (susceptibility) and risk rating systems to guide the application of forest management treatments that aim to reduce future damages to forests. Rating systems are typically designed for individual damage agents, but tree mortality often results from multiple agents without a clear proximate cause.

The Spatial Distribution of Tree Dieback Affected by Mistletoe in Relation to their Crown Characteristics [PDF]
جغرافیا و پایداری محیط, 2016 1- Introduction One of the main problems in The Zagros Forests is oak trees dieback. What is really certain and important is the fact that the tree dieback crisis caused the declining of oak in oak forest of Zagros. Oak decline is characterized by crown

High metabolic sensitivity to hot drought in two declining pine species with constrained physiology
Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 1, Page 239-255, January 2026.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Decline syndromes preceding tree mortality under increased abiotic stress often include reductions in transpiring leaf area and tree growth. However, the mechanisms regulating the metabolism and physiology of declining trees before they cross irreversible thresholds in ...

On the role of mutualisms in plant biogeography: consequences for ecology, evolution, and invasion
New Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 2, Page 714-721, January 2026.Summary Most plant species world‐wide depend on one or more mutualisms – beneficial associations with other species. Evidence is emerging that these biotic mutualisms shape plant biogeography (i.e. distributions). In particular, the absence of these mutualist partners limits plant establishment (i.e. the mutualist filter).
