Enhancing Recharge in the Edwards Aquifer, Texas: Measures, Outcomes, and Lessons for Karst Aquifers
Groundwater, EarlyView.Abstract Managed aquifer recharge is a widely adopted method that involves storing excess water underground for future use. While managed aquifer recharge has been applied globally to different aquifer types, its use in karst aquifers is less common due to the unique hydrogeological characteristics of these systems, including high permeability ...

Urban peatlands can harbour diverse insect communities but depend on appropriate habitat management
Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.Urban peatlands can support high insect diversity, including endangered species and peat bog specialists. Flower diversity boosts endangered species, while succession cover reduces overall insect richness—but bog condition and urbanization showed no major effects.

Tree growth response and adaptation to climate change and climate extremes: From canopy to stem
Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.This review synthesizes the responses and adaptations of tree growth, including canopy phenology, intra‐annual wood formation dynamics, and annual stem growth, to climate change and climate extremes. It highlights key knowledge gaps for future research to support sustainable forest management and enhance forest carbon storage under ongoing climate ...

Rhododendron diversity patterns provide new insights for conserving China's montane flora
Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.Integrating distribution, phylogenetic, and functional trait data for 603 Rhododendron species in China identified significant conservation hotspots of multidimensional diversity, particularly in the Hengduan Mountains. Climate seasonality and topographic heterogeneity jointly influenced these patterns; however, notable conservation gaps remained ...

Soil phosphorus drives subcontinental patterns of carbon isotope discrimination across Australia
New Phytologist, EarlyView.Summary Several transects have been established to study the sensitivity of carbon isotope discrimination (Δ13C) in woody plants to mean annual precipitation (MAP) across Australia. These have shown a surprising divergence in Δ13C‐MAP sensitivity among subcontinental regions.

The underappreciated roles of fog and dew on vegetation and biocrusts
New Phytologist, EarlyView.Summary Fog and dew represent minor components of ecosystem water budgets in most ecosystems. However, fog and dew can play an essential role in ecosystem dynamics and are particularly important for water‐limited systems. In addition to serving as direct water inputs, fog and dew can influence microclimate and water redistribution, thereby promoting ...
