Genetic diversity and structure of Siberian Stone Pine (Pinus sibirica du Tour) populations
Siberian stone pine (Pinus sibirica Du Tour) is a key component of the Eurasian boreal forest ecosystems. However, due to the ongoing climatic changes and anthropogenic activities, the habitats of the species are constantly degrading and reducing.

Remote Sensing Reveals Post‐Fire Forest Composition Shifts in Boreal Eastern Siberia
ABSTRACT Aim Wildfires are the primary agents of disturbance in boreal forests. Under climate change, their frequency and size are expected to increase, raising concerns about the long‐term boreal forest resilience. Despite the importance and complexity of post‐fire recovery, large‐scale assessments of post‐fire vegetation composition remain limited ...

ABSTRACT Conservation assessments of imperiled species require information on population structure, abundance, and connectivity which benefit from integrated demographic and genetic data. Humboldt martens (Martes caurina humboldtensis) are a federally threatened subspecies of Pacific marten (Martes caurina) whose conservation has been hindered by ...

Peculiarities of forming and functioning of Siberian stone pine forests of Altai
Our long-term (more than 20 years) studies of Altai forests formed by Siberian stone pine (Pinus sibirica du Tour) allowed us to fetch out many pecularities of forming of these forests and their functioning. The representativeness of the Aktru mountain glacier basin by hydroglacioclimatologic showings (Tronov, 1973) allowed us to assume the general ...

The impacts of biological invasions
ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological

Upland Afforestation Desiccates Downslope Wetlands on Sandy Soil
ABSTRACT Afforestation of formerly open, water‐limited habitats is a globally widespread form of land conversion, driven by the need for timber and non‐timber forest products, and capturing atmospheric carbon. However, increased tree cover can adversely affect hydrological cycles by increasing evapotranspiration and reducing downslope water yield ...

The Eurasian steppe area has been a dynamic vegetation biome during the Pleistocene with its repeated cycles of forest advances and retreats. Such a scenario allows the evolution of ecotypes at the ecotone with the potential for parallel evolution in different parts of the distribution area.

Abstract Permafrost degradation under a warming climate has altered hydrological and biogeochemical processes across the Arctic. Although increasing fluxes of weathering‐derived ions (e.g., Ca2+, Mg2+, and SO42−) have been reported in Arctic rivers, the underlying mechanisms and hotspots within basins remain poorly understood due to limited analysis of

Structure of Forests and Climatic Response of Trees in “Forest-Steppe” Contact Zone, the Altai Mountains [PDF]
Age structure of forests and radial increment of conifers were studied in the “ forest–steppe” contact zone: Siberian stone pine–Siberian spruce–Siberian larch forest in the lower belt of Severo-Chuisky Range, Siberian larch–Siberian spruce–Siberian ...
