ABSTRACT The southwestern Cape of South Africa experiences a complex and dynamic climate, shaped by the interplay between the temperate Southern Hemisphere westerly winds and the subtropical easterlies. Despite the climatic sensitivity of the region, relatively few studies have examined how conditions have varied since the last deglaciation in response

Plant conservation in a changing Mediterranean world
The Mediterranean is one of five climatic regions on the planet characterised by a prolonged summer drought, exceptional plant diversity and high rates of endemism. We provide a framework to link the ecology of plant species conservation in the context of rapid and extreme climate deregulation to a philosophical typology of temporal attitudes (i.e ...

Abstract Constraining how faunal communities vary over time and space in response to environmental change has long been a major goal of paleoecologists. Among fossilized organisms, few yield a better and greater detailed record than foraminifera to understand past marine conditions.

Early Human Settlement in Bornean Forests Occurred Under Distinct Environmental Conditions
Humans shaped Borneo's tropical forests for millennia. New analysis of 47 archaeological sites reveals long‐term settlement in warm, low‐elevation forests near coasts and rivers offering fresh insights. ABSTRACT Humans have inhabited Bornean tropical forests for at least 45,000 years, yet the impact of that long‐term presence is poorly understood ...

Some peatlands in Central Europe serve as continuous refugia for glacial species, as shown by paleoecological data. However, the ecosystem mechanisms behind this are not well understood. Microclimate plays a key role, and understanding the factors shaping it is crucial for managing peatlands as climate‐change refugia.

Clustering crocodylian dental morphology: Insights into functional adaptations, diet, and ontogeny
Extant crocodylians may be divided into five clusters based on the residuals of four linear dental measurements (y‐axes) and their variation along the jaw (x‐axes). These clusters correlate to snout shape, prey preference, and feeding ecology, particularly prey size and the degree of processing necessary. Multiple families and subfamilies were found in
