Right tree, right place, right reason: Using knowledge exchange and research co‐design to explore current challenges and opportunities for sustainable urban forest management

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
The urban forest provides important environmental and health and well‐being benefits to people living in cities. However, sustainable management of urban trees is challenging as they face interrelated pressures from the urban environment, pests and diseases and climate change.

Speciation with gene flow

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Biodiversity is threatened by human activities, with extinction debt accumulating rapidly. Many of these activities change the connectivity of populations, fragmenting existing population systems or bringing previously isolated populations or species into contact.

The potential effect of megafaunal extinctions on modern conservation of horse chestnut Aesculus hippocastanum

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Many plant species worldwide are struggling to regenerate due to the ongoing effects of climate change. These effects appear to be further exacerbated by the loss of keystone megafauna, which were important seed dispersers. By identifying the traits commonly seen in seeds spread by modern elephants, it is possible to predict which species likely ...

Moisture inversions in the central Arctic: Product assessment and long‐wave radiative effect

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
This study evaluates the integrated water vapour and the vertical distribution of water vapour of state‐of‐the‐art reanalyses, weather forecast models, and ground‐ and space‐based remote‐sensing products in the central Arctic. A particular focus lies on the representation of humidity inversions and the quantification of the long‐wave radiative effect ...

Modulation of North Atlantic atmospheric rivers by the Gulf Stream

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Gulf Stream ocean variability plays a key role in modulating atmospheric river (AR) activity over the North Atlantic during winter and spring at monthly time‐scales. Increased ocean heat transport and mesoscale activity in the Gulf Stream are linked to northward shifts in ARs, while stronger surface heat fluxes drive ARs southward.
