Alpha, beta and gamma diversity in relatively natural, mixed and transformed landscape scenarios

Ecography, EarlyView.
Biodiversity losses and biotic homogenisation associated with human‐induced land‐cover changes are key issues for ecology. However, the effects of human‐caused land‐use changes on biodiversity change at the landscape scale are not well understood. Combining the PREDICTS global biodiversity database with MODIS satellite‐based land cover from 2001 to ...

Succession stages‐dependent shifts in grassland community stability from asynchrony to population stability mediated by nitrogen enrichment

Ecography, EarlyView.
Understanding the stability dynamics of naturally occurring grassland succession under nutrient enrichment is crucial for effective ecosystem management. We carried out an 11‐year field experiment to examine how grassland community stability responds to nitrogen (N) enrichment across the three successional stages (early‐, mid‐ and late‐successional ...

Continuous monoculture of Xanthoceras sorbifolia Bunge leads to continuous cropping challenges due to fungal pathogen accumulation and reduced beneficial bacteria abundance

Fruit Research
Xanthoceras sorbifolium Bunge, a unique oil crop native to northern China, has a long history of cultivation. In this study, X. sorbifolium Bunge was continuously planted in Zibo and Weifang, Shandong Province, to explore the factors that cause a decline

Climate variability shapes the mutualistic interaction between truffle‐like ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungi and a mycophagous mammal

Ecography, EarlyView.
The mutualistic interaction between truffle‐like ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungi and mycophagous mammals is fundamental to forest health, supporting fungal dispersal, soil structure, nutrient cycling, and plant community dynamics worldwide. However, climate change may disrupt this mutualism in unprecedented ways by altering truffle‐like ECM sporing body ...

Neural Network Models for Solar Irradiance Forecasting in Polluted Areas: A Comparative Study

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Pollution‐aware hybrid ensemble model is proposed to forecast solar irradiance across eight diverse cities. The model integrates MLP, RNN, and NARX to handle varying atmospheric pollution levels. The model outperforms state‐of‐the‐art methods with enhanced accuracy and interpretability on standard solar irradiance data set.

Tropical forest degradation in the context of climate change: increasing role and research challenges. [K-2215-01] [PDF]

, 2015
While developed countries in temperate regions faced their forest transition about 100 years ago or more, “tropical forest rich” nations still largely depend on forest resources or land clearing for their development.

Senescent trees stabilize aboveground wood net primary production immediately after disturbance [PDF]

, 2020
In the United States, forests sequester 17% of national carbon (C) emissions annually (UGCRP, 2018), however shifting forest disturbances threaten the stability of this essential C sink.
