Drought and growing season phenology over 35 years modulates species interactions among domestic and wild herbivores

Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 95, Issue 7, Page 1194-1206, July 2026.
Using a unique 35‐year dataset, this study shows that domestic livestock do not facilitate wild large herbivores as predicted by the grazing optimization hypothesis. Instead, competition caused avoidance of cattle by elk which intensified under drought, and highlights how climate change influences interactions among domestic and wild large herbivores ...

Land Surface Phenology in the Tropics: The Role of Climate and Topography in a Snow-Free Mountain

, 2017
Leaf phenology represents a major temporal component of ecosystem functioning, and understanding the drivers of seasonal variation in phenology is essential to understand plant responses to climate change.

Snowmelt predicts earlier breeding across the latitudinal range of an Arctic nesting seabird, the Little Auk (Alle alle)

Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 95, Issue 7, Page 1248-1259, July 2026.
Multi‐year monitoring of the crevice‐nesting High Arctic seabird, the Little Auk (Alle alle), across four colonies spanning distinct climatic regimes revealed that snowmelt timing is a key and consistent driver of breeding phenology. Earlier snowmelt advances access to nesting habitat, enabling birds to initiate reproduction sooner. These findings show

Generalist passerine birds perform a functional role as pollinators in temperate Europe

Journal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 7, July 2026.
Nectar‐feeding birds are effective pollinators. In temperate Europe, songbirds visit flowers but lack specialist traits, so functional pollination has been discounted. We use observations, pollen identification and experiments to demonstrate that generalist birds affect fruit‐set of flowering trees.

Multi‐Sensor Spatiotemporal Fusion for 30‐m Daily Gapless Snow Cover Mapping

Water Resources Research
High spatiotemporal resolution remote sensing data is crucial for monitoring heterogeneous mountainous snow cover. Although spatiotemporal fusion presents a promising approach for high‐resolution snow monitoring, cloud contamination and sparse ...

Land surface phenology and greenness in Alpine grasslands driven by seasonal snow and meteorological factors

, 2020
Snow accumulation and melt have multiple impacts on Land Surface Phenology (LSP) and greenness in Alpine grasslands. Our understanding of these impacts and their interactions with meteorological factors are still limited.

Addressing Uncertainties in Climate–Ecosystem Feedbacks in the Arctic: Ten Priority Research Questions for Integrated Observation and Modeling

Ecological Research, Volume 41, Issue 4, July 2026.
Uncertainties exist in the biosphere–climate feedbacks in the Arctic. Remote and ground measurements play complementary roles in detecting possible changes. A critical next step is identification of key drivers of the global changes for future projections. ABSTRACT Positive biosphere–climate feedbacks are likely to amplify the Arctic warming, yet major

Estimating Distribution Range Shifts of the Japanese Alpine Butterfly Colias palaeno Induced by Historical Climate Fluctuations and the Crucial Role of Its Host Plant

Ecological Research, Volume 41, Issue 4, July 2026.
In this study, we used ecological niche models to quantify historical changes in the estimated distribution ranges of the alpine butterfly Colias palaeno and its host plant Vaccinium uliginosum in Japan. The results showed that temperature and host plant occurrence strongly influence the estimated distribution of C. palaeno.

The Forgotten Pink Salmon in the Laurentian Great Lakes: An Unexpected Invasion With Insights for Three Oceans

Fish and Fisheries, Volume 27, Issue 4, Page 813-830, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Introductions of species outside their native range, such as pink salmon (Oncorhynchus gorbuscha) in the Laurentian Great Lakes, can serve as unplanned experiments that provide new insights into ecological adaptation. We synthesize available information on the understudied Great Lakes pink salmon invasion and highlight how this case can inform

Linking Plant and Microbial Traits to Soil Carbon for Reliable and Resilient Bioenergy Systems

GCB Bioenergy, Volume 18, Issue 7, July 2026.
Plant–microbe–soil interactions supporting productivity and soil carbon storage in bioenergy systems. Plants supply organic inputs that sustain microbial communities driving nutrient cycling, carbon stabilization, and soil aggregation. These interactions enhance soil structure and nutrient retention, supporting both biomass productivity and broader ...
