Evaluation of factors affecting greater prairie‐chicken nest and brood survival

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Greater prairie‐chickens Tympanuchus cupido pinnatus in the Flint Hills ecoregion select recently burned grasslands for brooding and nest in areas that have been unburned for 1–3 years, suggesting the need for a mosaic of burn patches. However, it is unknown how patch area, configuration, and proximity to edges within such mosaics affect reproductive ...

Agricultural Vulnerability Assessment: Climate and Non‐Climate Interactions in Crop Production Systems

open access: yesAustralian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Recent climate phenomena show that Spain is one of the most vulnerable countries to climate change impacts, with varied regional effects from flash floods to drought. This study assesses the vulnerability of four major crops (cereal, rice, grape and olive) in Catalonia to climate change through a comprehensive vulnerability index incorporating

Coupled decline in growth and fine‐branching signals the onset of drought‐induced European beech mortality

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Conceptual synthesis of drought‐induced mortality in European beech. Summary Severe and recurrent droughts have caused widespread canopy decline and mortality in European forests. Drought‐induced mortality occurs when structural damage and physiological dysfunction impair a tree's ability to recover, yet it remains unclear when trees transition from ...
