Ecography, EarlyView.Hawaii has experienced profound declines in native avifauna alongside the introduction of numerous bird species. While site‐specific population studies are common, landscape‐level analyses of avian population dynamics are rare, particularly in island ecosystems. To address this gap, we used a density surface model to create a spatio‐temporal projection

Vegetation photosynthetic phenology dataset in northern terrestrial ecosystems
Scientific Data, 2023 Vegetation phenology can profoundly modulate the climate-biosphere interactions and thus plays a crucial role in regulating the terrestrial carbon cycle and the climate.

Ecography, EarlyView.Whether the limits of species' ranges and their seasonal activity reflect physiological tolerance of climatic extremes is a long‐standing question in ecology and has implications for species' responses to recent climate change. We explored these associations in butterflies, using thermal tolerance traits and traits describing geographic distribution ...

Heptapleurum assamicum (Araliaceae): A New Species From Assam, India
Feddes Repertorium, EarlyView.ABSTRACT A new species, Heptapleurum assamicum (Araliaceae), is described and illustrated from Assam, India. It was discovered during floristic documentation conducted in the Kopili River basin, in the Dima Hasao and West Karbi Anglong districts. The species is distinguished by a unique combination of morphological characters. Detailed comparisons with

Resist!: Sustaining forest carbon sequestration and wood production after insect disturbance
Frontiers in Ecology and the Environment, EarlyView.Disturbances from insect pests threaten ecologically and economically important goods and services supplied by forests, including wood production and carbon sequestration. We highlight the factors that influence these services’ resistance, a term quantifying the initial response to disturbance.

Dynamic identification of snow phenology in the Northern Hemisphere [PDF]
The CryosphereSnow phenology characterizes the cyclical changes in snow and has become an important indicator of climate change in recent decades. Changes in snow phenology can significantly impact climate and hydrological conditions.

Nature Communications, 2019 Advances in phenology (the annual timing of species’ life-cycles) in response to climate change are generally viewed as bioindicators of climate change, but have not been considered as predictors of range expansions. Here, we show that phenology advances

Integrative Conservation, EarlyView.Accurate species identification is critical for conserving endangered Firmiana trees in China. However, morphological similarities among closely related Firmiana species complicate its taxonomic identification. We conducted genome skimming on 62 samples representing all 10 Chinese species and discovered nrITS as the optimal DNA barcode, achieving 100 ...
