Synthesis of a National Soil Dataset Across Productive Land in Mexico: The Importance of Making Existing Data Accessible

European Journal of Soil Science, Volume 76, Issue 3, May–June 2025.
ABSTRACT The lack of soil data is a complication that most soil scientists will encounter throughout their career; this critical aspect is exacerbated due to the excessive cost of soil surveying. Consequently, it is essential to develop strategies that guarantee the permanent accessibility of past soil sampling efforts.

Andean grassland stability across spatial scales increases with camelid grazing intensity despite biotic homogenization

Journal of Ecology, Volume 113, Issue 4, Page 931-942, April 2025.
Our results emphasize the necessity of considering the complex influences of grazing intensity on diversity and stability at different spatial scales for the effective management of Andean grasslands. Abstract Intensive land use and changing environmental conditions are reshaping the biodiversity, functioning and stability of local Andean grassland ...

Nitrogen and Phosphorus Allocation Strategies in a Chronosequence of Tropical Dry Forests: Plant Coordination and Environmental Drivers

Biotropica, Volume 57, Issue 2, March 2025.
We explored the allocation strategies of N and P in leaves and fine roots (metabolic organs) and, in stems and coarse roots (woody organs) of nine dominant tree species in secondary tropical dry forests using scaling analysis. The scaling relationships of P versus N concentrations in non‐leaf organs were isometric across secondary succession and ...

Island restoration to rebuild seabird populations and amplify coral reef functioning

Conservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 1, February 2025.
Abstract Mobile organisms like seabirds can provide important nutrient flows between ecosystems, but this connectivity has been interrupted by the degradation of island ecosystems. Island restoration (via invasive species eradications and the restoration of native vegetation) can reestablish seabird populations and their nutrient transfers between ...

Review of ecological valuation and equivalency analysis methods for assessing temperate nearshore submerged aquatic vegetation

Conservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 1, February 2025.
Abstract Nearshore seagrass, kelp, and other macroalgae beds (submerged aquatic vegetation [SAV]) are productive and important ecosystems. Mitigating anthropogenic impacts on these habitats requires tools to quantify their ecological value and the debits and credits of impact and mitigation.

Testing the contribution of vertebrate predators and leaf traits to mainland–island differences in insect herbivory on oaks

Journal of Ecology, Volume 113, Issue 1, Page 140-154, January 2025.
The authors explored how insularity influences herbivory in oaks across island–mainland sites. By experimentally excluding vertebrate predators (e.g. birds, bats) and measuring leaf traits (e.g. phenolics, specific leaf area, nutrients), they provide insights into the mechanisms driving island–mainland herbivory patterns.

Ectomycorrhizal fungi and the nitrogen economy of Nothofagus in southern Patagonia

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 10, October 2024.
Ectomycorrhizal fungi play essential roles in nitrogen cycling and plant nutrient uptake at high latitudes. However, they have disproportionately been studied in boreal forests dominated by evergreen conifers. We characterized ectomycorrhizal associations and the nitrogen economy of co‐occurring deciduous and evergreen angiosperms from the genus ...
