Oikos, EarlyView.Rapid climate change in the Arctic is altering biological communities and their subsequent effects on ecosystem functioning. For example, warming‐induced shrub expansion accelerates biogeochemical cycles in part by increasing high‐quality litter inputs.

Real-time monitoring of maize phenology using ground camera fusion information
Smart Agricultural TechnologyReal-time crop phenology is crucial for effective crop management and food security. Traditional real-time phenology monitoring methods often relied on labor-intensive field surveys, which were susceptible to subjective biases and had limited temporal ...

Reconsidering climatic predictors for high‐resolution niche models of alpine plants
Oikos, EarlyView.The increasingly acknowledged and consequently also better understood microclimatic variability in terrestrial ecosystems has motivated a call for finer spatial resolution in species distribution modelling, especially in the case of sedentary low‐stature organisms such as plants.

Limnology and Oceanography LettersThe phenology of critical biological events in aquatic ecosystems is rapidly shifting due to climate change. Growing variability in phenological cues can increase the likelihood of trophic mismatches (i.e., mismatches in the timing of peak prey and ...

Interplay between snow phenology and vegetation phenology in Alaska under climate change
Advances in Climate Change ResearchSnow cover is one of the most important factors controlling Arctic ecosystems' microclimate and plant growth conditions in Arctic ecosystems. Climate change has impacted the timing and spatial variability of both snow cover, and worldwide vegetation ...

Biological control of the cherry fruit fly, Rhagoletis cerasi L. (Diptera, Tephriti-dae) by use of entomopathogenic nematodes: first experiences towards practi-cal implementation. [PDF]
, 2006 The use of entomopathogenic nematodes (EPN) is a promising approach to control the cherry fruit fly, Rhagoletis cerasi L.. We already demonstrated the high potential of EPN to infect larvae after leaving the cherry for pupation in the soil in laboratory ...

Oikos, EarlyView.Plant traits and their tradeoffs are major determinants of plant functions. Although trait‐based frameworks should apply to plant functioning at any life stage, they have been primarily established for adult plants. Therefore, we lack comprehensive trait‐based studies of seedlings across multiple species to prove which key dimensions of trait variation
