Abstract Humans have influenced ecosystems for millennia, and social changes can have notable ecological effects. Recent human influence on ecosystems is exemplified by the collapse of fire regimes circa 1900 in the western United States due to increased grazing, fire suppression, and declining Indigenous fire use.

Abstract Tree cavities function as key microclimatic refuges for anurans in the semiarid Caatinga biome of northeastern Brazil, where we document previously unreported interspecific aggregations during the dry season. Observations from fauna rescue operations preceding vegetation clearance revealed eight distinct aggregations within cavities of two ...

Abstract Predicting aboveground net primary production (ANPP) fluctuations across various spatial and temporal scales is of critical interest to researchers and land managers alike. Interannual variation in precipitation is a key control on ANPP, particularly in semiarid environments.

Synthesis of scale‐dependent plant biodiversity change in climate warming experiments
Abstract Climate warming is one of the most pressing environmental challenges for plant populations, communities, and ecosystems on earth. Warming experiments are an important tool for establishing causal relationships between climate change and plant diversity responses. However, results from such experiments vary in direction and magnitude.

Morphological Changes and Alterations in Erosion–Accretion Patterns in a Semiarid Brazilian River
Flow regulation by the Castanhão Dam significantly altered discharge dynamics and reduced sediment transport in the Jaguaribe River. Long‐term analysis (1958–2025) reveals attenuated flood peaks, decreased channel migration and progressive downstream stabilisation, highlighting persistent geomorphic adjustments in a regulated semiarid fluvial system ...
