Abstract
COVER PHOTO: The cover image, photographed in February 2020, depicts flamingos and palm trees along the lakeshore of Lake Balangida, a shallow alkaline lake in Singida, Tanzania. The lake, characterized by a pH of 9.93 and salinity of 85,318 ppm, provides a unique habitat for extremophile microorganisms. Ren et al. (Ecology, Volume 106, Issue 3, Article e70047; doi:10.1002/ecy.70047) investigate traits linked to microbial adaptation to high alkalinity and salinity, and further develop an index to quantify species' capacity for environmental adaptation by analyzing trait-environment relationships. The approach has implications for predicting taxon-specific biogeographic distribution and its response to climate change. Photo credit: Jianjun Wang.
期刊介绍：
Ecology publishes articles that report on the basic elements of ecological research. Emphasis is placed on concise, clear articles documenting important ecological phenomena. The journal publishes a broad array of research that includes a rapidly expanding envelope of subject matter, techniques, approaches, and concepts: paleoecology through present-day phenomena; evolutionary, population, physiological, community, and ecosystem ecology, as well as biogeochemistry; inclusive of descriptive, comparative, experimental, mathematical, statistical, and interdisciplinary approaches.
