Geo–ecology and management of sensitive montane landscapes
Geografiska Annaler: Series A, Physical Geography, 2002Montane (alpine) areas are generally of high value for nature conservation. Such environments and the habitats they support are dynamic and often fragile.

Climate‐driven range shifts of montane species vary with elevation
Global Ecology and Biogeography, 2021Aim: In response to warming, species are shifting their ranges towards higher elevations. These elevational range shifts have been documented in a variety of taxonomic groups across latitude.

Montane species track rising temperatures better in the tropics than in the temperate zone.
Ecology Letters, 2021Many species are responding to global warming by shifting their distributions upslope to higher elevations, but the observed rates of shifts vary considerably among studies.

Comparative Nutritional Ecology of Montane Ungulates during Winter
The Journal of Wildlife Management, 1983Comparisons of botanical and nutritional characteristics of winter diets of elk (Cervus elaphus nelsoni), mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus hemionus), and mountain sheep (Ovis canadensis canadensis) revealed sharp divergence in food niches. Deer diets contained the most browse and lignin, were intermediate in crude protein, and contained the least in ...

Tritrophic web structure in montane Andean forests undergoing ecological restoration
Food Webs, 2020Abstract Parasitism represents an important ecosystem service, reducing pest abundance. Since most hosts of parasitoids are herbivores, plant diversity likely shapes both herbivore and parasitoid assemblages. While restoration efforts are being adopted worldwide, mitigating habitat degradation, little is known about how tritrophic webs are organized ...

Towards integrated ecological research in tropical montane cloud forests
Journal of Tropical Ecology, 2016Abstract:Tropical tropical montane cloud forests (TMCFs) cover a small portion of the Earth, yet they are significant biodiversity hotspots and centres of endemism, and they provide important hydrological and biogeochemical functions that affect human livelihoods.

The coupling of green and brown food webs regulates trophic position in a montane mammal guild.
Ecology, 2022Food web ecology has revolutionized our understanding of ecological processes, but the drivers of food web properties like trophic position (TP) and food chain length are notoriously enigmatic.

Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution, 2017
The mountains of Borneo are well known for their high endemicity and historical role in preserving Southeast Asian rainforest biodiversity, but the diversification of populations inhabiting these mountains is poorly studied. Here we examine the genetic structure of 12 Bornean montane passerines by comparing complete mtDNA ND2 gene sequences of ...

Ecological studies on Indonesian lakes. The montane lakes of Bali
Journal of Zoology, 1978Of the two Balinese lakes revisited in 1974, 45 years after an earlier survey, the unproductive Danau Bratan, with a very low conductivity, showed changes in water chemistry and plankton composition that may reflect slight cultural eutrophication. Danau Batur, a larger lake with a very high conductivity, showed little change since 1929.Danau Bratan is ...

Unusually large upward shifts in cold-adapted, montane mammals as temperature warms.
Ecology, 2021The largest and tallest mountain range in the contiguous United States, the southern Rocky Mountains, has warmed considerably in the past several decades due to anthropogenic climate change.
