Anthropogenic Effects on Elementomes Across Organisms, Ecosystems, and the Biosphere
The elemental composition of organisms and ecosystems, termed the “elementome,” fundamentally determines biological function and ecosystem processes. These elemental profiles, historically relatively stable over geological timescales, ha...

Carbon Accumulation in Tropical Dry Forests and Savannas Despite Widespread Land‐Cover Change, Revealed by Radar Remote Sensing
Accurate mapping of woody biomass and its temporal change is critical for understanding the global carbon balance, informing restoration and supporting evidence‐based policy on climate mitigation and livelihoods. The vegetation of the dr...

Thermal Generalism Shapes Tolerance to Extreme Heatwaves in Estuarine Fishes
Climate change is widely expected to push many taxa beyond their biological limits, yet some populations persist in environments that routinely experience climatic extremes. This raises a fundamental question: does their thermal toleranc...

Direct and Trait‐Mediated Effects of Climate on Grassland Productivity Across the Alps
Understanding how climate shapes ecosystem productivity through energetic constraints and changes in the functional properties expressed by vegetation remains challenging. This is central to trait‐based biodiversity–ecosystem functioning...

Phenological Flexibility in Nesting Grassland Birds Over a Half Century Informs Timing of Management
The timing of biological events for wildlife species reflects and influences ecological and evolutionary processes and helps guide management actions to meet conservation objectives. Climate change may cause phenological shifts across tr...

Woodland Decline Undermines Resilience in Fire‐Adapted Landscapes
Open‐canopy forests and woodlands are a foundational component of historically fire‐adapted landscapes, yet their persistence under contemporary climate and fire regimes remains poorly understood. Here, we leverage historical aerial phot...
