Animal breeding phenology in temperate and high latitude regions is often predicted by weather variables, such as temperature. Much work on this topic has focused on taxonomic groups that employ adaptive plastic responses to annual variation in an environmental cue, with analytical approaches developed to determine when weather has an effect and the ...

The role of Alpine botanical gardens in integrating germplasm bank collections and mission
This study underscores the vital role of Alpine botanical gardens (ABGs) in safeguarding Europe's alpine biodiversity amid climate change and habitat loss. By acting as living laboratories and reservoirs of plant genetic resources, ABGs bridge ex situ and in situ conservation, supporting ecosystem resilience and informing restoration strategies.

ABSTRACT Environmentally friendly farming practices are gaining interest, and intercropping is a promising option to protect soil health, yet its effects on orchard microbiomes and functions remain underexplored. In this study, we assessed a 3‐year intercropping assay of Capparis spinosa (D1) and Thymus hyemalis (D2) with almond and reduced tillage in ...

Frozen Soil Hydrological Processes and Their Effects: A Review and Synthesis
Abstract Frozen soils, including seasonally frozen ground and permafrost, are rapidly changing under a warming climate, with cascading effects on water, energy, and carbon cycles. We synthesize recent advances in the physics, observation, and modeling of frozen‐soil hydrology, emphasizing freeze–thaw dynamics, infiltration regimes and preferential flow,

Abstract Estimating biogenic CO2 fluxes is essential to quantify urban anthropogenic emissions, yet urban vegetation heterogeneity presents a significant challenge to making accurate estimations. We have developed an hourly temporal, 10‐m spatial resolution biogenic CO2 flux estimation framework based on the Vegetation Photosynthesis and Respiration ...

Abstract Accurate representation of groundwater table depth (GWTD) is crucial for simulating hydrological cycling in Earth system models (ESM). Nevertheless, there is a notable gap in the literature regarding the validation of GWTD simulations in ESMs and their subsequent impact on downstream hydrological components. This study explores the calibration

Abstract Uncertainty in land model projections remains high and the roles of parametric and structural uncertainty are difficult to disentangle. To compare parametric sensitivity across model structures we present two parameter perturbation ensembles using the Community Land Model (CLM) operating in satellite phenology mode.

Systematic Benchmarking of Climate Models: Methodologies, Applications, and New Directions
Abstract As climate models become increasingly complex, there is a growing need to comprehensively and systematically assess model performance with respect to observations. Given the increasing number and diversity of climate model simulations in use, the community has moved beyond simple model intercomparison and toward developing methods capable of ...

Abstract Estimating daily snow water equivalent (SWE) is critical for hydrological and climate applications, yet physical models often struggle to represent SWE, especially its interannual anomalies. In this study, we developed a hybrid physics‐guided machine learning (ML) model (hybrid model), by augmenting the Community Land Model 4.0 SWE simulations

Abstract National and international regulations enforce monitoring programmes of water quality to guide management actions of inland water ecosystems. Our study evaluates the effect of spectral and spatial resolutions on the estimation of chlorophyll‐a concentrations in mountain lakes, and derives implications for addressing the adjacency effect, which
