Temperature variation in caves and its significance for subterranean ecosystems [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2023
Climate change affects all ecosystems, but subterranean ecosystems are repeatedly neglected from political and public agendas. Cave habitats are home to unknown and endangered species, with low trait variability and intrinsic vulnerability to recover ...

A geoheritage valuation to prevent environmental degradation of a new volcanic landscape in the Canary Islands

Land Degradation &Development, Volume 34, Issue 9, Page 2494-2507, 30 May 2023., 2023
Abstract On 19 September 2021, a new monogenetic volcano (Tajogaite) erupted on the Island of La Palma (Canary Islands, Spain). After 85 days of Strombolian style eruption, with emissions of volcanic material, a pyroclastic cone 200 m high and 800 m in its basal diameter was formed.

The role of geography, ecology, and hybridization in the evolutionary history of Canary Island Descurainia

American Journal of Botany, Volume 110, Issue 5, May 2023., 2023
Abstract Premise Oceanic islands offer the opportunity to understand evolutionary processes underlying rapid diversification. Along with geographic isolation and ecological shifts, a growing body of genomic evidence has suggested that hybridization can play an important role in island evolution.

Comparable early-stage decomposition but contrasting underlying drivers between surface and cave habitats along an elevational gradient

Ecological Indicators, 2023
Decomposition is a major contributor to ecosystem respiration, determining the carbon emission and nutrient cycling rates. Our current understanding of decomposition dynamics and their underlying drivers has mainly focused on surface habitats but largely

Climatic and biogeographical drivers of functional diversity in the flora of the Canary Islands

Global Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 31, Issue 7, Page 1313-1331, July 2022., 2022
Abstract Aim Functional traits can help us to elucidate biogeographical and ecological processes driving assemblage structure. We analysed the functional diversity of plant species of different evolutionary origins across an island archipelago, along environmental gradients and across geological age, to assess functional aspects of island ...

Habitat Loss and Biotic Velocity Response to Climate Change for Alpine Plant Species in Atlantic Oceanic Islands

Diversity, 2023
Climate change may shift species outside of their current climatic tolerances, which can be problematic for oceanic islands with limited options for species migration.
