Annual Dynamic Changes in Lignin Synthesis Metabolites in Catalpa bungei ‘Jinsi’

Metabolites
Background: Catalpa bungei ‘Jinsi’ has excellent wood properties and golden texture, which is widely used in producing furniture and crafts. The lignin content and structural composition often determine the use and value of wood. Hence, investigating the

From shadows to data: first robust population assessment of snow leopards in Pakistan

Ecography, EarlyView.
The snow leopard Panthera uncia is a flagship species of the greater Himalayan region and symbolizes the integrity of this ecological system. Within the greater Himalayas, Pakistan holds special significance as the north of the country represents a confluence of three major mountain ranges (Hindu Kush, Pamir–Karakoram, and Himalaya).

The impacts of climate change and disturbance on spatio‐temporal trajectories of biodiversity in a temperate forest landscape

Journal of Applied Ecology, 2016
Summary The ongoing changes to climate challenge the conservation of forest biodiversity. Yet, in thermally limited systems, such as temperate forests, not all species groups might be affected negatively.

Temperature variability homogenized thermal responses in an ectotherm community along a European longitudinal gradient

Ecography, EarlyView.
Climate change, through rising temperatures, greater variability, and more frequent extremes, is reshaping insect phenology and thermal niches, with profound effects for pest outbreaks. Predicting these impacts requires a clear understanding of species and communities' responses across geographic gradients.

Positive association between forest management, environmental change, and forest bird abundance

Forest Ecosystems, 2019
Background The global decrease in wildlife populations, especially birds, is mainly due to land use change and increasing intensity of land use (Parmesan and Yohe 2003).

Soil respiration in a northeastern US temperate forest: a 22‐year synthesis [PDF]

, 2013
To better understand how forest management, phenology, vegetation type, and actual and simulated climatic change affect seasonal and inter‐annual variations in soil respiration (Rs), we analyzed more than 100,000 individual measurements of soil ...

Quantifying the unrecorded loss of avian phylogenetic diversity

Ecography, EarlyView.
Humans have drastically reduced avian diversity, with the majority of extinctions occurring on islands. Previous studies have quantified various aspects of this decline, including both taxonomic and phylogenetic diversity loss due to recorded extinctions.
