Drying suppresses fine root production to 1 m depths and alters root traits in four distinct tropical forests

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 4, Page 1992-2009, February 2026.
Summary Drying and drought in tropical forests, which have some of the highest net primary productivity on Earth, are likely to alter root dynamics, ecosystem function, and carbon (C) storage. We used a chronic drying experiment in four lowland Panamanian forests to investigate whether soil drying shifts tropical forest root production from surface to ...

Plant conservation in a changing Mediterranean world

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 1, Page 49-72, January 2026.
The Mediterranean is one of five climatic regions on the planet characterised by a prolonged summer drought, exceptional plant diversity and high rates of endemism. We provide a framework to link the ecology of plant species conservation in the context of rapid and extreme climate deregulation to a philosophical typology of temporal attitudes (i.e ...

La covariación espacial de la precipitación en la Península Ibérica y su contribución al establecimiento de mecanismos de compensación interterritorial como instrumento de ayuda en la gestión de las sequías [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
La alta covariación que se registra entre las precipitaciones de las distintas cuencas vertientes que componen el territorio peninsular, con la excepción de la vertiente Norte y Noroeste, parece excluir la posibilidad de llevar a cabo mecanismos de ...

Expert perceptions regarding the effectiveness and feasibility of nature‐based solutions for climate change adaptation in a large Mediterranean Basin

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 7, Issue 10, Page 2511-2531, October 2025.
Abstract Floods and droughts are becoming increasingly frequent and intense in the Mediterranean region. Nature‐based solutions (NBS) are being put forward as cost‐effective solutions for climate change adaptation to reduce the impacts of floods and droughts and provide multiple other benefits and ecosystem services.
