Here, we combine field‐based trait data and long‐term remote sensing to assess the functional structure and temporal dynamics of these communities. Using foliar trait measurements from 247 vegetation plots across five contrasting habitats, we 1) quantify contemporary community‐level functional structure, 2) evaluate how edaphic and climatic filters shape spatial variation in community‐weighted foliar traits, and 3) reconstruct multi‐decadal trait trajectories by hindcasting from long‐term Landsat reflectance (1984–2022). Contemporary communities occupy a narrow and predominantly conservative region of the leaf‐economic trait spectrum, yet habitats differ in their functional positions within CSR strategy space, indicating non‐uniform trait coordination despite overall conservatism. Soil texture and acidity define the primary conservative–acquisitive axis of trait variation, while climatic water balance acts as a secondary modulator; together, these predictors explain 39% of the spatial variation in community‐weighted traits. Contrary to expectations of increasing conservatism under progressive climatic stress, Landsat‐based hindcasts reveal only modest temporal reorganisation. Specific leaf area and leaf area increase across habitats, while leaf dry matter content declines slightly, indicating a subtle relaxation of conservative trait expression. Temporal changes are small relative to the pronounced spatial differentiation, suggesting strong functional inertia in this OCBIL system. Overall, Campo Rupestre communities persist within a conservative functional domain while exhibiting fine‐scale, habitat‐dependent differentiation structured by enduring soil and water‐balance gradients.","PeriodicalId":51026,"journal":{"name":"Ecography","volume":"423 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.9,"publicationDate":"2026-04-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147720065","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Temporal shifts in kelp forest structure and distribution largely reflect recent ocean warming trends","authors":"Nora Salland, Catherine M. Wilding, Cristina Galobart, Kathryn E. Smith, Nathan G. King, Michael T. Burrows, Dan A. Smale","doi":"10.1002/ecog.08280","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1002/ecog.08280","url":null,"abstract":"Ocean warming is driving the redistribution of species at a global scale. Biogeographic transition zones are hotspots of species range shifts, as both warm‐ and cold‐adapted species are found toward contrasting range edges. While anecdotal evidence suggests some distributional shifts have occurred in the northeast Atlantic, the empirical evidence base is relatively limited. As habitat‐forming foundation organisms, kelps strongly influence the structure and functioning of associated communities and underpin ecosystem processes. It is therefore important to document changes in abundance and distribution patterns of kelp species and to understand climate‐driven shifts in kelp habitat structure. During the summer between 2021 and 2023, a total of 34 historical kelp sites were resurveyed, which had been previously surveyed between 1941 and 2016 (i.e. 82 to 5 years prior to resurveys) in intertidal and shallow subtidal reef habitats in the southwest of England (UK), a region within a wider biogeographic transition zone in the northeast Atlantic. The objective of this study was to collect spatially extensive, robust field data on contemporary kelp habitats to test the hypothesis that recent ocean warming trends have led to an increase in warm‐adapted species and, conversely, a decline in cold‐adapted species. Surveys indicated that the cold‐temperate species <jats:italic>Laminaria digitata</jats:italic> and the warm‐temperate <jats:italic>Saccorhiza polyschides</jats:italic> are currently the most widespread and abundant habitat‐forming species in the study region. By comparing historical and contemporary survey results, the a priori expectation that cold‐adapted species have declined was strongly supported for <jats:italic>Saccharina latissima</jats:italic> and partly for <jats:italic>Alaria esculenta</jats:italic> . Conversely, warm‐adapted Lusitanian species such as <jats:italic>S. polyschides</jats:italic> and <jats:italic>Laminaria ochroleuca</jats:italic> have proliferated. The invasive non‐native species <jats:italic>Undaria pinnatifida</jats:italic> has also increased, but not significantly, and remains spatially restricted across the region. Further, we observed an increase in the community temperature index (CTI) of kelp forests over time, which coincided with shifts in average sea temperatures in the region. Continued ocean warming, combined with other environmental changes, will likely lead to further shifts in the distribution and abundance patterns of habitat‐forming kelp species, with implications for habitat structure and local biodiversity. As ecological functions and traits differ between kelp species, particularly between the ocean warming ‘winners' and ‘losers', wider changes in ecological resilience and ecosystem service provision can be expected.","PeriodicalId":51026,"journal":{"name":"Ecography","volume":"50 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.9,"publicationDate":"2026-04-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147719998","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For decades, migratory birds have been treated as the default long-distance pathogen vectors, shaping both conceptual frameworks and empirical models of disease ecology. Yet this bird-centric view creates a profound bias: it overlooks trillions of insects that migrate seasonally across continents, many of them efficient pathogen vectors. Advances in radar, isotopic tracing, and genomic tools now reveal that insect flyways are structured, recurrent, and often intersect with avian routes, creating unrecognized hotspots of co-migration and potential cross-transmission. Ignoring these flows risks misattributing prevalence patterns to bird movements alone and perpetuating incomplete models of pathogen dispersal. We argue that pathogen spread should be reframed as a macroecological process emerging from the overlapping movements of multiple taxa. This requires expanding current frameworks, integrating insects into migration–disease models, and developing infrastructure capable of monitoring aerial biodiversity at continental scales. Such a shift is essential not only for ecological theory but also for applied surveillance in public health, agriculture, and wildlife conservation in a rapidly changing world.","PeriodicalId":51026,"journal":{"name":"Ecography","volume":"66 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.9,"publicationDate":"2026-04-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147708863","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While increased consumer diversity and more complex food webs are expected in tropical communities, the trophic dynamics underlying strong regional effects of predation are not well understood. To identify drivers of variation in consumer effects, we first experimentally tested how predators impact prey community structure across latitude. We then explored the community-level characteristics of interacting predators that explain observed changes in prey community structure at low latitudes. Using a standardized experiment paired with underwater videography in four coastal regions spanning 47° of latitude in the eastern Pacific Ocean, we quantified species-specific feeding rates on sessile marine invertebrate communities and tested whether predation pressure led to changes in prey community structure. We applied a multivariate model-based framework to identify elements of the predator community that best explain compositional change in prey communities in the tropics. We found that mid- and high-latitude prey communities experienced low predation pressure, with no discernable effect of predators on community structure, whereas low-latitude communities experienced strong predation pressure by a diverse assemblage of predators resulting in significant changes in community structure. While tropical predator communities were consistently more diverse than those at higher latitudes, our results show that predator–prey interactions can be context-dependent. Predator diversity was the best predictor of prey compositional change in early assembly prey communities. At later stages of prey assembly, however, a lower diversity of predators was observed, and the presence of key predator taxa became the best predictor of prey change. Our findings suggest that both the standing diversity of predator communities and the identity of predators sampled from a diverse species pool are important drivers of strong regional interaction effects.","PeriodicalId":51026,"journal":{"name":"Ecography","volume":"23 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.9,"publicationDate":"2026-04-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147708864","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Transfer accuracy may be improved by recent advances in the application of deep learning that provide greater flexibility and potentially superior predictive accuracy than traditional approaches. We implemented jSDMs with deep and machine learning algorithms and measured the transfer accuracy from continental to regional areas in communities with different species composition. We ran jSDMs with deep neural networks (DNN), elastic net (EN), and stacked SDMs (sSDM) with random forests (RF). We used 134 689 occurrence records representing 1776 species of six taxonomic groups (beetles, birds, bryophytes, fungi, lichens and plants) from 2387 forest plots in Europe. We employed an agnostic modelling approach that covered most of the environmental conditions by including more than 100 satellite-derived variables and 98 climatic variables. The predictive power of the models within the training continental area was evaluated using AUC, whereas the transfer accuracy in the regional area was evaluated with the Boyce index calculated with independent presence records. We found that the DNN–jSDMs outperformed other models at continental scale, but model transfer from continental to regional extent was less accurate. We found that the accuracy of regional predictions was higher for taxonomic groups with better representation in the continental data, such as birds, bryophytes and plants. Depending on the algorithm and the taxonomic group, we achieved acceptable (Boyce &gt; 0) to accurate (Boyce &gt; 0.5) transferability for 32–78% of the species. Our findings underscored the need of considering trade-offs among hyperparameter tuning, spatial scales and model complexity.

Vegetation line elevations across six regions spanning from Ladakh in the west to Bhutan in the east were analysed for temporal dynamics, spatial patterns of elevation and greening/browning trends (i.e. temporal increase or decrease in NDVI). Results revealed consistent upward shifts in vegetation lines across all regions, with rates ranging from 1.42 m year^–1 in Khumbu (Nepal) to 6.95 m year^–1 in Manthang (central High Mountain Asia). Initial levels of vegetation greenness generally increased from west to east. Across all study regions, greening trends were more prevalent than browning trends, while significant browning trends were observed in more easterly regions, specifically in Khumbu and Bhutan. Integration with the ERA5 dataset suggests snow depth as a key driver associated with the upward migration of vegetation lines, while variations in precipitation appear linked to the extent and intensity of browning. This study is the first to demonstrate vegetation line shifting patterns across the Himalayas at a 30 m spatial resolution, providing robust evidence of upward vegetation line movement under climate change and exploring underlying climatic trends.","PeriodicalId":51026,"journal":{"name":"Ecography","volume":"134 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.9,"publicationDate":"2026-04-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147664190","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Due to climate change, earthworms face severe survival pressures and extinction risks. However, whether conservation efforts targeting aboveground biodiversity can cover the long‐neglected earthworm diversity remains unknown. To address this gap, we constructed stacked species distribution models based on earthworm occurrence data and environmental factors to predict the spatiotemporal distribution patterns of earthworm richness and identify conservation gaps. Results indicated that high earthworm richness primarily occurs in southeastern and southwestern China. This distribution pattern was mainly influenced by precipitation during the coldest season and the annual temperature range. Earthworms are projected to shift northwestward, with regions like the Qinling Mountains emerging as new diversity hotspots. Both current and projected distribution areas exhibit extremely low protected area coverage, leaving 76.3% of earthworm species unprotected. By 2100, 62.0% are projected to face severe habitat loss (area reduction &gt; 30.0%), with 37.0% at risk of extinction. Future earthworm species in farmland and forests will significantly diminish, as over 50.0% of these regions already face soil degradation risks that severely impact crop yields and carbon sequestration.

Here, we document and examine the invertebrate assemblages on intertidal rock platforms in Western Australia and delineate ecoregions according to assemblage structure. We recorded 406 invertebrate species from quadrat and timed search surveys on 39 intertidal limestone platforms that span 16° of latitude. We analysed latitudinal variation in species assemblage composition and multiple components of invertebrate diversity (alpha, gamma and beta diversity) that relate to different spatial scales (local, regional and bioregional) using multivariate analysis of variance and distance‐based linear models. Bioregions of similar invertebrate assemblages were delineated using hierarchical cluster analysis with unweighted pair‐group methods using arithmetic averaging. There was a clear relationship between alpha and gamma diversity, with both increasing towards the equator. Beta diversity was relatively high across all sites, not showing any significant variation with latitude, highlighting how regional patterns can arise from sites with high local variation. Our results indicate that the intertidal diversity aligns with the latitudinal diversity gradient theory, demonstrating how regional‐scale processes influence patterns in diversity. The composition of species distributions across latitudes indicates that a transition between tropical‐ and temperate‐dominated assemblages occurs between 27–24°S, although further research is required to examine the properties of the transition zone. Distinct groupings of invertebrate assemblages were identified, which delineated the coast into five regions. We provide a comprehensive empirical understanding of invertebrate assemblages along the west coast of Australia, which acts as a valuable baseline to assess future change and aid future management and conservation efforts.","PeriodicalId":51026,"journal":{"name":"Ecography","volume":"5 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.9,"publicationDate":"2026-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147598814","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Exploring these patterns at regional scales can reveal processes that segregate acoustic strategies along environmental gradients. Here, we examined how the acoustic trait composition of bird assemblages varies at a regional extent in relation to landscape resolution environmental variation. We used data on 2427 bird assemblages and 15 acoustic traits, quantifying the frequency, complexity, rhythm, and duration of vocalisations for 117 species. We used multivariate ordinations to investigate the distribution of species' acoustic traits along climatic and landscape gradients while accounting for spatial and phylogenetic dependencies. We then assessed whether these relationships resulted in directional shifts in the acoustic trait composition of bird assemblages for three key acoustic traits. Our results show that acoustic traits were phylogenetically and spatially clustered and correlated with regional climatic conditions (e.g. lower complexity and isochronous rhythms under higher precipitation and temperature seasonality). Conversely, we found mixed support for the hypothesis that the acoustic signature of species assemblages is shaped by habitat composition within landscapes. For instance, we found urbanisation to be associated with vocalisations featuring broader spectral bandwidths, likely facilitating their propagation under noise pollution, but also greater complexity, which may hinder transmission in urban landscapes. These regional patterns may reflect differences in the structure of acoustic networks within and among species assemblages. Our results thus form a first step towards a regional‐level assessment of the environmental and anthropogenic factors that structure or disrupt acoustic connectivity in landscapes.","PeriodicalId":51026,"journal":{"name":"Ecography","volume":"4 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.9,"publicationDate":"2026-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147598813","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
