Increased root-derived carbon buffers soil carbon loss under simultaneous warming and nitrogen addition [0.03%]
增温氮添加下植物根系输入增加土壤固碳能力
Thomas J Muratore,Nikhil R Chari,Richard P Phillips et al.
Thomas J Muratore et al.
Plant roots are primary drivers of soil organic matter dynamics, mediating belowground carbon (C) inputs, stabilization, and losses. Yet, how global changes such as rising temperatures and altered nitrogen (N) availability interact to affec...
Adaptive responses to environmental variability in rotifers: Integrating plasticity and bet hedging in dormancy exit [0.03%]
轮虫对环境变化的适应性反应：休眠觉醒中的可塑性和赌博式适应的整合

Environmental variability imposes strong selective pressures that may favor adaptive responses such as phenotypic plasticity and bet hedging. Plasticity is generally favored under predictable conditions, whereas bet hedging is advantageous ...
Total herbivore exclusion alters plant species dominance and trait expression in endangered grassy woodlands [0.03%]
完全排除食草动物改变了濒危草地林木层的优势植物种类和性状表现

Temperature controls bryophyte-associated nitrogen fixation in super-humid temperate forests in New Zealand [0.03%]
温度控制了新西兰温带超湿润森林中苔类相关的固氮作用
Kathrin Rousk,Meila Picard,Annika Engroff et al.
Kathrin Rousk et al.
Nitrogen (N) fixation performed by certain prokaryotes (diazotrophs) is a key source of new N in pristine ecosystems. Diazotrophs associate with various plants, including bryophytes-the dominant plant group in northern ecosystems such as bo...
Mammal defaunation leads to biotic homogenization of plant communities in tropical rainforests [0.03%]
哺乳动物数量减少导致热带雨林植物群落生物均一化
Luiz Guilherme Dos Santos Ribas,Nacho Villar,Valesca Zipparro et al.
Luiz Guilherme Dos Santos Ribas et al.
Biotic homogenization is the process in which species communities become increasingly similar across different regions over time. This phenomenon has substantial ecological, evolutionary, and economic implications, primarily driven by human...
Initial tree census for the Paint Rock Forest Dynamics Plot, Alabama, USA [0.03%]
美国阿拉巴马州岩画森林动态样地的初始树木普查报告

Dawn Lemke et al.
We present the initial woody stem census for the 20-ha Paint Rock Forest Dynamics Plot in 2019-2021 in north Alabama, USA. Our objectives were to improve our understanding of the ecology of the forest ecosystem, provide hands-on research ex...
Social and structural traits influence species gains while resources influence species losses in a native grassland [0.03%]
社会和结构性状影响本土草地植物种类获得而资源影响植物类群丧失
Emily M Holden,James F Cahill Jr

Multiple factors influence temporal species turnover, including resource requirements and species traits. The standard model in plant ecology is that adding soil nutrients will result in taller communities, reducing understory light levels ...
Species-specific interactions with apex carnivores yield unique benefits and burdens for mesocarnivores [0.03%]
顶级肉食动物与中型肉食动物间的物种特异性相互作用会产生独特的利弊关系
Wesley Binder,Jack W Rabe,Zoe Lowe et al.
Wesley Binder et al.
Mesocarnivores navigate a complex risk-reward continuum in ecosystems shared with their apex counterparts, balancing scavenging opportunities with risks of mortality. However, the risks to mesocarnivores in multi-carnivore systems are not u...
Clarifying space use concepts in ecology: Range vs. occurrence distributions [0.03%]
阐明生态学中空间使用概念：范围与发生分布的区别
Jesse M Alston,Christen H Fleming,Michael J Noonan et al.
Jesse M Alston et al.
Quantifying animal movements is necessary for answering a wide array of research questions in ecology and conservation biology. Consequently, ecologists have made considerable efforts to identify the best way to estimate an animal's home ra...
