DNA barcoding enabled the creation of the first large, taxonomically verified barcode library for Polish millipedes, covering 981 individuals and 58 species (62% of the national fauna), with 468 COI sequences. The study reveals potential cryptic diversity, shifts in the Polish diplopod fauna and documents Melogona broelemanni as a species newly ...

A Genetic Tool for Non‐Invasive Monitoring of Fennoscandian Golden Eagles (Aquila chrysaetos)
We describe and validate a 96 SNP panel for golden eagles in northern Europe as a tool for monitoring and future studies. We show that it can determine sex, identify individuals, and assess relatedness with great accuracy. ABSTRACT Increasing human landscape alterations may negatively affect golden eagle (Aquila chrysaetos) populations, calling for ...

The Pan‐Himalayan region harbors exceptional biodiversity, yet the origins and underlying mechanisms driving this remarkable diversity remain poorly understood, especially among species‐rich invertebrates. Pimoa spiders exhibit an intercontinental disjunct distribution across three major mountain regions: the Rockies, the Alps, and the Pan‐Himalaya ...

Topography constrains the climatic response of treeline migration in Taiwan's subalpine forests
Treelines are moving upslope, but the rates and drivers differ among different regions, globally. Many studies have examined the relationship between treeline movement and climate change, particularly rising temperature, while the role of topographical factors has received much less attention, despite the longstanding recognition of its importance.

Ice‐related landforms in mountain areas have been hypothesized to play a key role in the survival of cold‐adapted species threatened by climate change. However, our understanding of such landforms acting as refugia remains speculative. Here we analyse occurrence data, collected through a standardized sampling at 471 sampling points across the European ...

ABSTRACT The formation of ground‐level ozone follows complex nonlinear photochemical processes that depend on multiple environmental factors and have strong spatio‐temporal structures. Environmental data used to study these dynamics usually originate from multiple sources, including in situ monitoring stations and satellite observations.

Q‐GlaRe+ is an open‐source QGIS plugin for palaeoglacier reconstruction and equilibrium‐line altitude estimation. Validation against Swiss Alpine glaciers demonstrates accuracy comparable to proprietary tools. By removing software barriers and supporting FAIR principles, Q‐GlaRe+ enables broader access to glacier reconstruction capabilities and ...

The graphical abstract shows the monitored tropical headwater catchments with dense rainforest cover situated close to the continental divide draining into the Pacific and Caribbean slopes. The Caribbean slope is characterised by year‐round high rainfall that results in catchments dominated by fast, near‐surface flow paths, relatively minor groundwater

Global reanalyses, for example ERA5 and ERA5‐Land, tend to misrepresent the local‐scale weather extremes due to the limited spatial resolution. In this paper CERRA shows clear and consistent improvements over ERA5 and ERA5‐Land in representing extreme temperature and precipitation in Poland, particularly for localized and short‐lived heavy rainfall ...
