Impact of emerging compound droughts on forests: A water supply and demand perspective

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
This review examines the physiological and ecological responses of trees to emerging compound droughts from a water demand and supply perspective, as well as the role of acclimation and consequences for ecosystem‐level functions. Abstract The intensification of climate change‐induced drought results in unprecedented tree and forest die‐offs worldwide ...

Trait‐based recovery of insect functional diversity following pine removal in a shrubland biodiversity hotspot

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction A primary goal of habitat restoration is the return of both taxonomic and functional diversity to support ecosystem resilience and functioning. This study assessed how insect functional biodiversity (focusing on beetles [Coleoptera] and ants [Formicidae]) responds to invasive pine (Pinus spp.) removal, in a Mediterranean‐type ...

Weak Nuclear Divergence Despite Pronounced Mitochondrial Divergence Within a Widespread Desert‐Inhabiting Palearctic Lark (Aves: Alaudidae)

Zoologica Scripta, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Bar‐tailed Lark Ammomanes cinctura is a polytypic bird species with a wide distribution. One of its three subspecies, A. c. arenicolor, has previously been found to show deep mitochondrial divergence between its geographically most distant populations, from Morocco and Saudi Arabia, respectively.

Hypogravity simulation using the Variable Gravity Suspension System: A technical report

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Human movement has evolved within Earth's gravitational environment (1 g; −9.81 m s−2). Future human exploration of terrestrial bodies, including the Moon (0.17 g; −1.62 m s−2) and Mars (0.38 g; −3.71 m s−2), will require astronauts to live and work within reduced gravitational environments (hypogravity).

How hot is too hot for people? A review of empirical models of perceptual, physiological and functional limits of human heat tolerance

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract How hot is too hot for people? This is a question that human thermal physiologists are asked often by a variety of knowledge users across the public and private sectors, who have grown aware of the negative impact of global warming on people's health and quality of life.

Differential intestinal injury and unchanged systemic inflammatory responses to leg and whole‐body passive hyperthermia in healthy humans

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Hyperthermia can cause intestinal injury, facilitating endotoxin translocation and an inflammatory response that has been associated with heat illness. However, the potential occurrence of these responses has been incompletely reported during passive hyperthermia, and the independent effect of hyperthermia is equivocal.
