Connecting the distribution and diversification of marine plants

Oikos, EarlyView.
Integration of the evolutionary history with distribution of extant species is necessary to explain present‐day diversity, particularly for ‘foundation' species, such as seagrasses, which create habitats of socioecological relevance. Here, we resolved if varying evolutionary history of seagrass families has imprinted the distribution ranges of extant ...

Community dynamics of lignicolous lichens on standing deadwood in a 275‐year chronosequence

Oikos, EarlyView.
Dead trees provide discrete habitat patches in which patch quality changes gradually due to wood decomposition. Although in most cases these patches persist for not more than a few decades, in some ecosystems deadwood decomposition and the consequent change in habitat patch quality can be a centuries‐long process, potentially leading to dynamics of ...

Seasonal variation of leaf functional traits in sub‐Arctic plants

Oikos, EarlyView.
Leaf functional traits are informative of plant fitness and functions in ecosystems. These functional traits and their variation across geographic extents are much studied but less is known about their temporal variation over a growing season. Here, we provide an analysis of the seasonal variation in six leaf functional traits of 11 sub‐Arctic vascular

From the brink of extinction to regulation: northern Europe's white‐tailed eagles now face density dependence and climate constraints after rapid population growth

Oikos, EarlyView.
Population growth reflects the combined influence of regulation and density‐independent factors operating through demographic processes. Under exceptional circumstances (e.g. populations recovering from near‐extinction), growth may initially be weakly regulated but typically slows as negative density dependence (NDD) sets in.
