Abstract Oak woodlands are among California's least protected yet most ecologically important ecosystems, providing critical habitat for a wide variety of plant and animal species. These foundational plant communities are increasingly threatened by drought, wildfire, and other climate‐driven disturbances, which have contributed to significant declines ...

Long‐term trends in greenness in the alpine zone of northeastern North America from remote sensing
Abstract Alpine zones above treeline in the Appalachian Mountains and adjacent ranges of northeastern North America support distinctive ecological communities that thrive where conditions are too harsh for trees to grow. These communities differ from alpine zones elsewhere on the continent and are a regionally important source of floristic biodiversity,

The Impacts of Sand Burial on the Growth Characteristic of Salix Psammophila in Mobile Sand Dune
Based on investigating the root distribution and canopy characteristics of Salix Psammophila in mobile sand dune in Maowusu Hinterland,the results show that there are some differences about the growth status of the Salix psammophila in different ...

Climate‐induced vegetation greening (NDVImax) stimulated C‐sequestration in subarctic catchments by 10%–85% during the last decades. Increases in weathering and declines in non‐marine SO4 atmospheric deposits were identified as the main drivers of decadal increases in inorganic C (ICalk) run‐off to subarctic lakes.

Horizontal visibility, rather than concealment cover, drove fawn bedsite use and predation risk. Greater field of view decreased the odds of coyote predation, likely by facilitated by early detection. As fawns transitioned from hiders to followers, they shifted from using dense overstory concealment to more open overstory that favored improved escape ...

ABSTRACT Root exudates serve as a key driver for the restoration of soil organic carbon (SOC), particularly in aeolian desertification ecosystems where aboveground litter retention is limited. While Salix cupularis is widely planted as an effective pioneer shrub for ecological rehabilitation on the Qinghai‐Tibet Plateau, how the quantity of its root ...

Integrative morphological and ITS‐based phylogenetic analyses confirm the occurrence of Cortinarius saniosus and C. desertorum in the montane Pinus sylvestris forests of Eastern Anatolia, Türkiye. These records represent a significant southeastward expansion of the species’ documented, distributions and provide molecularly characterized material from ...
