Análisis de la producción de corcho en 6 municipios del Parque Natural Los Alcornocales (Cádiz-Málaga) durante los últimos 30 años (1985-2014)

A pesar de la importancia económica y ecológica del corcho y los bosques de alcornocal, existe muy poca información sobre la producción de corcho en distintas regiones y su tendencia temporal. Fenómenos como el cambio climático y la seca del …

Pliocene-Pleistocene ecological niche evolution shapes the phylogeography of a Mediterranean plant group

Estimating species ability to adapt to environmental changes is crucial to understand their past and future response to climate change. The Mediterranean Basin has experienced remarkable climatic changes since the Miocene, which have greatly …

Light accelerates plant responses to warming

Competition for light has profound effects on plant performance in virtually all terrestrial ecosystems. Nowhere is this more evident than in forests, where trees create environmental heterogeneity that shapes the dynamics of forest-floor …

Long-term hurricane damage effects on tropical forest tree growth and mortality

Hurricane winds can have large impacts on forest structure and dynamics. To date, most evaluations of hurricane impacts have focused on short-term responses after a hurricane, often lacked pre-hurricane measurements, and missed responses occurring …

Climate refugia: joint inference from fossil records, species distribution models and phylogeography

Climate refugia, locations where taxa survive periods of regionally adverse climate, are thought to be critical for maintaining biodiversity through the glacial–interglacial climate changes of the Quaternary. A critical research need is to better …

Thermophilization estimation is robust to the scale of species distribution data

Microclimate moderates plant responses to macroclimate warming

Recent global warming is acting across marine, freshwater, and terrestrial ecosystems to favor species adapted to warmer conditions and/or reduce the abundance of cold-adapted organisms (i.e., “thermophilization” of communities). Lack of community …
