The last forests on Antarctica: Reconstructing flora and temperature from the Neogene Sirius Group, Transantarctic Mountains [PDF]
, 2018 Fossil-bearing deposits in the Transantarctic Mountains, Antarctica indicate that, despite the cold nature of the continent’s climate, a tundra ecosystem grew during periods of ice sheet retreat in the mid to late Neogene (17–2.5 Ma), 480 km from the ...

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.This study comprehensively analyzes the diversity and distribution of over 500 year old large old trees (LOTs) in Guangxi, China, identifying 2630 LOTs from 149 species with a notable latitudinal gradient in richness. Tree vitality was found to be highest in rural and natural habitats like villages and scenic spots, compared to residential areas.

Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 1, January–March 2026.Successful forest restoration starts early: Across three restored sites, late‐successional trees (n = 1840) established well when planted at the same time as pioneers. A 2‐m spacing maximized survival, revealing facilitation–competition trade‐offs, with outcomes also shaped by species identity and microhabitat.

Fern spore dispersal: A methodological review and experimental field study
Applications in Plant Sciences, Volume 14, Issue 1, January-February 2026.Abstract Spore dispersal is one of the most important but perhaps the least investigated and understood processes in determining the geographical distribution of fern species. After a methodological review of the aerobiology of fern spores, we examined the impact of spore characteristics and meteorological factors on their airborne dispersal.

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 1, Page 4-14, January 2026.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Mixed dipterocarp lowland tropical rain forests on Oxisols and Ultisols and heath forests on Spodosols are considered distinct vegetation types in Borneo. Here we present the endmember hypothesis of ecosystem diversification, which describes a continuum of forest ...
