Stemflow Dynamics in the Jamari National Forest (Brazilian Amazon): II. Solute Concentrations and Flux Dynamics

open access: yesBiotropica, Volume 58, Issue 2, March 2026.
Trees can redirect large volumes of rainwater to the base of their stems. This stemflow not only redistributes water but also channels canopy‐derived solutes to the forest floor. Building on research showing canopy geometry and bark properties govern stemflow volumes, we examined how those same traits modulate the biogeochemical side of this flux. Over

Taxonomic decomposition of the latitudinal gradient in species diversity of North American floras [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Aim: To test the latitudinal gradient in plant species diversity for self-similarity across taxonomic scales and amongst taxa. Location: North America. Methods: We used species richness data from 245 local vascular plant floras to quantify the slope and ...

Testing Darwin's transoceanic dispersal hypothesis for the inland nettle family (Urticaceae).

open access: yesEcology Letters, 2018
Dispersal is a fundamental ecological process, yet demonstrating the occurrence and importance of long-distance dispersal (LDD) remains difficult, having rarely been examined for widespread, non-coastal plants.

Polyphyly of the traditional family Flabellinidae affects a major group of Nudibranchia: aeolidacean taxonomic reassessment with descriptions of several new families, genera, and species (Mollusca, Gastropoda)

open access: yesZooKeys, 2017
The Flabellinidae, a heterogeneous assembly of supposedly plesiomorphic to very derived sea slug groups, have not yet been addressed by integrative studies. Here novel material of rarely seen Arctic taxa as well as North Atlantic, North and South Pacific,

Relative pollen productivity estimates from India: A step towards quantitative reconstruction of past plant abundance

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 17, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Pollen records and models of pollen–vegetation relationships are required to reconstruct past plant abundances during the Holocene to answer specific questions on climate history, human impact, biodiversity, and their interactions. An important parameter for model applications is pollen productivity, estimated as relative pollen productivity ...
