Under future #ClimateChange, #Taxus prefers to survive in humid and semi humid areas, and the precipitation in the driest season is the key factor determining the survival of #Taxus.

In this study, Shuo Zhang et al. used the #StackedSpeciesDistributionModel (SSDM) to predict the spatiotemporal patterns of global #TaxusL. distribution and driving mechanism for the first time.

Fossil fuels, Marine heatwaves and Runoff: The bloom pulsates

"Algal blooms are complex, but the prevailing theory is that the 2022-23 floods washed nutrients down the Murray-Darling Basin system and out to sea. A marine heatwave and an “upwelling” of nutrients from the bottom of the ocean combined to create the perfect conditions for Karenia mikimotoi to flourish."

"Don’t get the wrong idea: #RoseateSpoonbills aren’t failing. Their numbers are better in Florida than they’ve been in decades. They’re just not nesting in Florida Bay, the Everglades’ southernmost point, anymore. The species is undergoing a #RangeShift. "

Highly important paper about projected changes in marine biodiversity under different climate scenarios. Based on information on >33000 species and scenarios for 7 environmental factors, Doro Hodapp and colleagues show that we need to expect massive turnover characterized by reductions in suitable habitat size and separation into smaller sub-areas.

Tree seedling distributions can indicate early stages of climate-induced tree migrations along elevational climatic gradients. Canopy gaps can facilitate these range shifts for some species but not for others as shown by Jordon Tourville, a PhD candidate in our group defending his dissertation this coming week (now also a post-doc at Appalachian Mountain Club). Congrats on a very nice paper, Jordon!
