Climatic niche shifts and ecological sky‐island dynamics in Mesoamerican montane birds

open access: yesEcology and Evolution
AbstractAn ongoing challenge in evolutionary and ecological research focuses on testing biogeographic hypotheses for the understanding of both species' distributional patterns and of the factors influencing range limits. In this study, we described the climatic niches of Neotropical humid montane forest birds through the analysis of factors driving ...

Investigating plant awareness: Image composition affects student perceptions of flora and fauna

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
This study investigates the effect of the positoning of plants and animals in landscape photographs on their perception by students and the detail with which they get described. We conclude that the positioning of plants, among other factors, significantly influences how strongly they are perceived.

Ecophysiological adaptations of the lichen genera pseudocyphellaria and sticta to south temperate rainforests [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
Temperate rainforests are a poorly researched habitat with respect to lichen ecophysiology in comparison to desert and polar regions. The evergreen, broadleaf forests provide a dim, moist environment that is relatively stable throughout the year. Lichens

Potential distribution and susceptibility of Coffea arabica L. to climate change impacts

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Ecological niche models (ENMs) are vital for understanding the impact of historical factors on ecosystems and predicting future climate change scenarios. These models help assess how environmental shifts affect agricultural species like coffee, which supports millions of people globally.

Using dendroclimatic analysis of exotic deciduous conifers in an arboretum to document tree growth in response to climate change, Northeast Ohio, USA

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Rising temperatures and wetter conditions in the Midcontinent of North America are influencing climate responses in trees. Dendroclimatological analyses of four exotic deciduous conifer species from Secrest Arboretum, Northeast Ohio help identify past, present and future climate‐tree interactions.

Carbon dioxide evolution from snow-covered agricultural ecosystems in Finland

open access: yesAgricultural and Food Science, 1996
The release of CO2 from the snow surface in winter and the soil surface in summer was directly or indirectly measured in three different soil types (peat, sand and clay) in agricultural ecosystems in Finland.

Scale-dependent dispersal drives community assembly of breeding birds along elevational gradients

open access: yesEcological Processes
Background Identifying the processes that govern community assembly along elevational gradients has been a central theme in ecology, especially in montane ecosystems where abundant species and strong turnover are present.
