Ecological determinants of stability in dryland plant communities
New Phytologist, EarlyView.Conceptual framework for partitioning the drivers of community stability. Summary Community stability is often presented as crucial for sustaining ecosystem services under environmental change. Yet, its determinants (dominance, asynchrony in species fluctuations, averaging effect of species diversity) have rarely been disentangled in natural systems ...

Plant Biology, EarlyView.Balkan high‐mountain fens harbour unique endemic plant communities, with a west‐to‐east compositional gradient and local richness primarily shaped by palaeoclimate. As these fens have already experienced drier, warmer summers than at present, they may withstand climate change if actively and effectively protected. Abstract The phenomenon of Balkan high‐

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.Abstract Introduction Revegetation using native vegetation is a commonly used technique to reclaim landscapes degraded by mining activities. Revegetation efforts in the arid Southwestern United States face physical, geochemical, hydrological, and biological challenges unique to drylands.

Can surface treatments and climate matching enhance restoration success in the Sonoran Desert?
Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.Abstract Introduction Restoring native plant communities in arid ecosystems through seeding is a critical yet often unsuccessful strategy due to severe environmental stressors, including degraded soils, low and variable rainfall, and seed predation. Objectives To improve restoration outcomes, we examined the influence of seed mix types and soil surface

No need to seed: restoring species‐rich grassland on former arable fields by natural regeneration
Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.Abstract Introduction Over the last century, agricultural intensification has caused substantial losses of semi‐natural species‐rich grasslands. One means of restoring grassland habitat is to abandon farmed land, followed by mowing and/or grazing of the established vegetation to facilitate meadow diversification. Objectives This study investigated post‐
