Intensifying Flash Droughts Aggravate Vegetation Ecosystem Vulnerability in the Monsoon Region of China: Evidence From Resistance and Resilience Responses

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract The resistance and resilience of vegetation determine its ability to maintain ecosystem functional stability under flash drought stress. However, a research framework that quantifies event‐scale response characteristics of vegetation resistance, resilience, and vulnerability remains lacking.

Quantifying Deep Groundwater Contributions to Streamflow With Inequality‐Constrained EEMMA From Sparse Isotope Series in Alpine Permafrost Basins

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract In alpine permafrost basins, dry‐season runoff largely depends on subpermafrost groundwater (BPG, deep groundwater), yet cryohydrogeological conditions are complicated by time‐varying hydrothermal regimes. Combined with the storage and regulation effects of permafrost on runoff, hydrograph‐based estimates of the fractional contribution of BPG ...

Toward Peace With Nature: Protected Areas Effectively Mitigate Wild Ungulate‐Livestock Competition Despite Spatial Mismatch on the Qinghai‐Tibet Plateau

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Competition for forage between wild ungulates and grazing livestock poses a critical challenge for sustaining grassland ecosystems and pastoral livelihoods. Protected areas (PAs) may mitigate competition, but quantitative multi‐species assessments that simultaneously integrate habitat overlap, forage availability, and conservation ...

Structural‐Functional Decoupling in Post‐Disturbance Forest Recovery: Canopy Cover Lags Hydrological Function Across Chinese Forests

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Forest disturbance dynamics play a crucial role in terrestrial carbon sequestration and regional climate regulation. However, the coupled recovery processes of forest structure and function remain insufficiently understood. Here, we rigorously identified 930 forest recovery sites across China, each paired with undisturbed control sites.

The Triple‐Benefit Potential of Desert Wind Farms in China: Energy, Resource Complementarity, and Climate Effect

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract The deserts of Northwest China are one of the most wind energy resource rich area in the country, and are characterized by concentrated solar energy and fragile ecosystems. Thus, efforts to harvest wind energy for carbon neutrality goals face vital challenges, such as determining where to site wind farms with consideration of wind energy ...

Multi‐gradient warming reshapes functional traits and adaptive responses of alpine meadow plants

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 9, Page 2889-2905, September 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Plant functional traits in alpine meadows are critical indicators of ecosystem responses to climate warming, yet dynamic changes in trait networks across warming gradients and their consequences for community functions remain poorly understood.

Phenology drives asymmetric responses of ecosystem productivity stability to warming and cooling

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 9, Page 2959-2971, September 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Ecosystem productivity stability is a key indicator of ecosystem functioning under climate change, but the role of cooling periods in increasingly variable climates remains poorly resolved.
