The oxygen and pressure physiology of upper elevational range limits in insects

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 10, Page 3020-3033, October 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Climate warming is widely expected to cause montane insects to shift upslope, and there is good evidence that some populations are doing so. Nevertheless, patterns are mixed—with evidence supporting upslope, downslope or even no movement of both lower and upper range ...

Good days, bad days: Weather patterns driving bryophyte carbon‐exchange dynamics in tropical rainforest canopies

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 10, Page 3260-3275, October 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract The physiology of tropical mosses, liverworts and lichens may be challenged by the daily weather patterns in lowland rainforests. Since these poikilohydric organisms can only photosynthesize and respire when hydrated, unfavourable timing of light and water availability (

Urban oases relax desiccation risk for an arid‐adapted lizard

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 10, Page 3063-3072, October 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Urbanization from expanding human development has radically altered the structure, ecology and microclimate of landscapes worldwide. These dramatic environmental alterations subject organisms to novel ecological conditions and may select for distinct ecophysiological ...

Rainfall memory and spring atmospheric demand predict herbaceous biomass production in Mediterranean ecosystems

open access: yesJournal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 10, October 2026.
Across 24 years of observations from a long‐term Mediterranean rainfall‐manipulation experiment, herbaceous biomass was shaped by interacting climate controls rather than rainfall alone. Greater winter and spring rainfall memory promoted biomass, whereas high spring vapour pressure deficit reduced it; seasonal thermal variability further modified ...

Assessing Future Maladaptation Risk in the Keystone Species Populus tremuloides

open access: yesEvolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Understanding the adaptive potential of widespread trees is critical for predicting species resilience under climate change and informing their conservation strategies. We assessed the genomic offset in Populus tremuloides Michx. (aspen) using 10,937 genotyping‐by‐sequencing derived, high‐quality SNPs from 891 individuals sampled across the ...

Forest Densification and Pollution Rival Climate in Driving US Tree Demographic Change

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 10, October 2026.
Forests across the contiguous United States are responding to simultaneous changes in climate, atmospheric pollution, and forest density, yet the relative importance of these drivers for tree demographic rates has rarely been compared. Using two decades of nationwide forest inventory data, we quantified the sensitivity of recruitment, growth, and ...
