Shrub tundra ecohydrology: rainfall interception is a major component of the water balance
As shrubs expand across the Arctic, they alter all cycles in the Earth system, including the water cycle. However, the coupling of shrubs with the water cycle during summer remains poorly understood.

Prunus serotina unleashed: invader dominance after 70 years of forest development [PDF]
Propagule pressure and disturbance have both been found to facilitate invasion. Therefore, knowledge on the history of introduction and disturbance is vital for understanding an invasion process, and research should focus on areas in which the invasive ...

ABSTRACT Native plants offer a variety of aesthetic (e.g., fall colour, fruit, flowers) and functional benefits (e.g., pollinator friendly, wildlife friendly, water management). How these benefits influence consumer choice and perceived value of native versus introduced plants is not well understood.

Sentinel-2 and AISA Airborne Hyperspectral Images for Mediterranean Shrubland Mapping in Catalonia
The Mediterranean ecosystem exhibits a particular geology and climate, which is characterized by mild, rainy winters and long, very hot summers with low precipitation; it has led to the emergence of resilient plant species.

Wind‐driven seed dispersal differentially promotes seed trapping and retention across alpine plants
Abstract Premise Seed dispersal can mediate species interactions between plants across life stages. Plants can physically stop seed movement (seed trapping) and prevent further dispersal following entrapment (seed retention). We therefore hypothesized seed trapping and retention rates depend on the physical attributes of interacting seeds and plants ...

Legume Shrubs Are More Nitrogen-Homeostatic than Non-legume Shrubs [PDF]
تتميز البقوليات بأنها تحافظ على إمدادات مستقرة من المغذيات في ظل ظروف محدودة المغذيات. ومع ذلك، فحصت دراسات قليلة المزايا المتكافئة للبقوليات على النباتات الأخرى عبر أصناف مختلفة في النظم الإيكولوجية الطبيعية. استكشفنا الاختلافات في القياس المتكافئ للنيتروجين (N) والفوسفور (P) لأنواع الأنسجة المختلفة (الأوراق والساق والجذر) بين شجيرات البقوليات المثبتة

Phenological Gardens Protocol [PDF]
The purpose of this resource is to observe the flowering and leaf stages of selected garden plants throughout the year. After a phenological garden is planted, students observe the growth of leaves and blooming of flowers on the plants. These plants were
