Combining thermal and hydric constraints for spatially predicting the activity suitability of Neotropical Leptodactylid frogs

Ecography, EarlyView.
Amphibians balance their thermal and water budgets depending on their physiological state and the physical environment, with both factors capable of constraining activity. Most mechanistic assessments emphasize thermal over water constraints, potentially missing important aspects of amphibian ecophysiological patterns.

Non‐stationary forest responses to hotter droughts: a temporal perspective considering the role of past legacies

Ecography, EarlyView.
Global change is altering forests worldwide, with multiple consequences for ecosystem functioning. Temporal changes in climate, and extreme, compounded weather events like hotter droughts are affecting the demography, composition and function of forests, leading to a highly uncertain future.

The scaling of seed‐dispersal specialization in interaction networks across levels of organization

Ecography, EarlyView.
Natural ecosystems are characterized by a specialization pattern where few species are common while many others are rare. In ecological networks involving biotic interactions, specialization operates as a continuum at individual, species, and community levels. Theory predicts that ecological and evolutionary factors can primarily explain specialization.

Powerful yet challenging: mechanistic niche models for predicting invasive species potential distribution under climate change

Ecography, EarlyView.
Risk assessments of invasive species present one of the most challenging applications of species distribution models (SDMs) due to the fundamental issues of distributional disequilibrium, niche changes, and truncation. Invasive species often occupy only a fraction of their potential environmental and geographic ranges, as their spatiotemporal dynamics ...

Proximity to seabird colonies and water availability shape moss distributions in Antarctica

Ecography, EarlyView.
Understanding species distributions across Antarctica is crucial for biodiversity conservation under climate change, but continental‐scale analyses of key terrestrial species remain scarce. Here, we modelled distributions of 28 moss species across Antarctica using log‐Gaussian Cox process models and environmental covariates including topographic ...

Enabling ecological survey data integration with the Humboldt Extension to Darwin Core

Ecography, EarlyView.
In the face of the global biodiversity crisis, accessibility to biodiversity data that are maximally effective for downstream use in science, conservation, and policy is paramount. The Darwin Core standard has played a central role in providing a standardised structure and vocabulary for biodiversity data. However, early iterations of the standard were
