Mesoscale Covariation in the Plant–Soil Neighbourhood of a South African Montane Grassland
ABSTRACT Plant–soil relationships are the foundation of terrestrial life, sustaining global ecosystems through biomass and food production, nutrient cycling and microbial activity, and ecosystem regulation. To better understand plant–soil relationships in a changing world, we investigated mesoscale covariation in the plant–soil neighbourhood of a South

Seasonal snow cover provides the majority of freshwater supplies for human society and natural ecosystems especially in semi-arid regions. For water resource managers, precise data regarding the spatiotemporal variability of snow cover and snow phenology

Atmospheric and soil droughts were assessed using the SAMI and SSMI indices at northern European coniferous forest eddy‐covariance (EC) sites, and ecosystem responses were evaluated from EC flux data. The results show that soil droughts have been rare, while air moisture limitations on carbon and water fluxes occur more frequently. Atmospheric droughts

Climate change is altering breeding phenology and productivity of peregrine falcons and gyrfalcons across the circumpolar Arctic. Long‐term monitoring shows that responses vary among study areas and Arctic regions, with some populations advancing hatch dates while others show weaker or contrasting trends, highlighting spatially variable effects of ...

Terrestrial Arthropod Responses to Arctic Cryosphere Degradation
Changes in Arctic snow and ice are impacting terrestrial arthropods—for example, thinner snowpacks alter phenological synchrony and soil fauna survival; thawing permafrost increases decomposition, and glacial ice loss leads to the disappearance of adapted specialists; sea ice decline will have many indirect impacts for arthropods.

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 ...

Tree growth response and adaptation to climate change and climate extremes: From canopy to stem
This review synthesizes the responses and adaptations of tree growth, including canopy phenology, intra‐annual wood formation dynamics, and annual stem growth, to climate change and climate extremes. It highlights key knowledge gaps for future research to support sustainable forest management and enhance forest carbon storage under ongoing climate ...

Increasing Warming May Inhibit Land Carbon Uptake in Northern High Latitudes
Abstract Arctic ecosystems are warming at an accelerated rate, with heatwaves becoming more frequent and intense. We examined productivity responses of Arctic ecosystems to major warming events from 2000 to 2022. Results indicated that early‐season warming generally enhances productivity, whereas prolonged high temperatures suppress productivity later ...
