Developing a macroecology for human‐altered ecosystems

Ecography, EarlyView.
Although anthropogenically‐induced ecological disruptions are fundamentally important in defining ecosystem properties, they are largely overlooked by macroecological theory. Anthropogenic disruptions and their effects are generally not comparable to one another, nor to disturbances that are part of natural disturbance regimes.

Vegetation on the move: elevational shifts and greening dynamics across the Himalayan alpine zone

Ecography, EarlyView.
This study investigates alpine ‘vegetation line' (the upper limit of continuous plant community) dynamics in the Himalayan alpine zone (HAZ) over a 24‐year timescale (1999–2022) using maximum NDVI products derived from Landsat series datasets, adjusted for sampling bias using phenological modelling.
