Mesoscale Covariation in the Plant–Soil Neighbourhood of a South African Montane Grassland

Austral Ecology, Volume 51, Issue 8, August 2026.
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

Impacts of Atmospheric and Soil Droughts on Carbon and Water Fluxes in Northern European Coniferous Forests: Evidence From Eddy‐Covariance Data

Global Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 8, August 2026.
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

Resident and Migratory Falcons' Breeding Phenology and Productivity Respond Differently to Weather and Climate Change Across the Arctic

Global Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 8, August 2026.
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 ...

Snow cover phenology dataset over global mountain regions from 2000 to 2023

Data in Brief
Monitoring temporal and spatial changes in the mountain seasonal snowpack is a key step to better quantify the impact of recent climate warming on this very sensitive environment. In this context, to support the research on large scale, there is an urgent need of consistent and accurate data sets over global mountain regions.

Denning Phenology Mediates Sea‐Ice Loss Impacts on Early Reproductive Success in Polar Bears

Global Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 8, August 2026.
Changes in overwinter sheltering phenology in response to climate change and their fitness consequences have rarely been studied. Here, we show that climate change has disrupted the phenology of overwinter maternity denning in polar bears, with females emerging from den earlier when sea‐ice had been scarce the preceding year.

Terrestrial Arthropod Responses to Arctic Cryosphere Degradation

Global Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 8, August 2026.
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

Global Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 35, Issue 8, August 2026.
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

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 68, Issue 8, Page 2388-2415, August 2026.
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 ...
