Habitat complexity and prey composition shape an apex predator's habitat use across contrasting landscapes

open access: yesEcography, Volume 2026, Issue 6, June 2026.
The spatial ecology of stalk‐and‐ambush predators like the Eurasian lynx Lynx lynx depends on prey availability and environmental features, yet the relative roles of these factors remain unclear at large spatial scales. In this study, we analysed lynx habitat use across central and southern Finland using snow‐track data from the Wildlife Triangle ...

Using LiDAR to quantify, map, and conserve late‐successional and old‐growth forest in Maine, USA

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 17, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract The world continues to lose late‐successional and old‐growth (LSOG) forest as the human population and demand for wood fiber grow. However, older forest age classes provide structural and compositional characteristics important to biodiversity that are often not present in forests managed for timber.

The role of tree traits in explaining throughfall variability in US forests

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 17, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Throughfall, precipitation that passes through the plant canopy or drips from canopy surfaces, represents the dominant input of water to most forests and is extremely spatially and temporally variable. Many plant traits can influence throughfall, but because measuring throughfall and a wide variety of plant traits is labor intensive, most ...

An Evaluation of New Snow Interception and Ablation Parameterisations in Continental, Subarctic and Maritime Needleleaf Forests

open access: yesHydrological Processes, Volume 40, Issue 6, June 2026.
A new mass and energy balance for intercepted snow more accurately represented observations of subcanopy snow water equivalent and canopy intercepted snow load compared to an existing approach. The new CanSnow model also revealed how intercepted snowfall is partitioned between throughfall, sublimation, drip and unloading to the forest floor at two ...

Modelling Storage‐Discharge Relationships in an Alpine Basin in the Canadian Rockies

open access: yesHydrological Processes, Volume 40, Issue 6, June 2026.
CRHM was used to model storage‐discharge relationships for Fortress Mountain Research Basin, an alpine basin in the Canadian Rockies. The model showed reasonable predictions of snow accumulation, snowmelt, liquid soil moisture, and streamflow, and nonlinear and hysteretic storage‐discharge relationships for this alpine basin.
