Aim
To determine the degree to which assemblages of planktonic foraminifera track thermal conditions.
Location
The world's oceans.
Time Period
The last 700,000 years of glacial–interglacial cycles.
Major Taxa Studied
Planktonic foraminifera.
Methods
We investigate assemblage dynamics in planktonic foraminifera in response to temperature changes using a global dataset of Quaternary planktonic foraminifera, together with a coupled Atmosphere–Ocean General Circulation Model (AOGCM) at 8000-year resolution. We use ‘thermal deviance’ to assess assemblage responses to climate change, defined as the difference between the temperature at a given location and the bio-indicated temperature (i.e., the abundance-weighted average of estimated temperature optima for the species present).
Results
Assemblages generally tracked annual mean temperature changes through compositional turnover, but thermal deviances are evident under certain conditions. The coldest-adapted species persisted in polar regions during warming but were not joined by additional immigrants, resulting in minimal assemblage turnover. The warmest-adapted species persisted in equatorial regions during cooling with similarly minimal assemblage change. Assemblages at mid-latitudes mostly tracked temperature cooling and warming.
Main Conclusions
Planktonic foraminiferal assemblages were generally able to track or endure temperature changes: as climate warmed or cooled, bio-indicated temperature also became warmer or cooler, although to a variable degree. At polar sites under warming and at equatorial sites under cooling, the change in bio-indicated temperature was less than, or even opposite to, what would be expected from estimated environmental change. Nevertheless, all studied species persisted across the study interval, regardless of thermal deviance—a result that highlights the resilience and inertia of planktonic foraminifera on an assemblage level to the last 700,000 years of climate change.

Motivation
Accurate estimates of species distributions are crucial for biogeography, spatial conservation, and for assessing the impacts of human activities on species. However, existing approaches to estimate species distributions have typically neglected the influence of land use intensity, potentially overlooking the negative impacts of high-intensity land uses on biodiversity. Here, we build a dataset documenting the habitat suitability of European land systems for terrestrial vertebrate species, based on a novel land system map of Europe that factors in land use intensity. Our database offers refined and up-to-date information on terrestrial vertebrate distributions in Europe by explicitly considering land use intensity.
Main Types of Variables Contained
We created a table defining the suitability of land use classes as habitats for each species. We then built Area of Habitat (AOH) maps for each species by filtering out unsuitable habitat from the latest available estimates of species ranges. AOH maps were then compared with occurrence records from the Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF). Processed datasets and R scripts are publicly available online, facilitating the use of our approach to refine expert-based distributions for other taxa, land system classifications and regions worldwide.
Spatial Location and Grain
The AOH maps cover the spatial extent of the European Union (EU) with the United Kingdom, Norway, Switzerland, and the Western Balkans. The AOH maps are at a 1 km2 resolution.
Time Period and Grain
The dataset uses information published during the last 10 years.
Major Taxa and Level of Measurement
Habitat suitability was documented for 1155 terrestrial vertebrate species known to occur in Europe: 279 mammals, 520 birds, 251 reptiles and 104 amphibians.
Software Format
We provide the habitat suitability table in a comma-separated values (csv) format. The AOH maps are available as raster files. R scripts are publicly accessible on GitHub.

Diet is a key aspect of life in animals. There have been numerous independent origins of herbivorous diet across animals, but the factors that explain these origins remain poorly understood. One potentially crucial factor is body temperature (Tb), as the gut-dwelling bacteria that help digest cellulose in many herbivores are thought to require high temperatures. However, analyses in birds, lizards and mammals found only limited evidence for higher Tb in herbivores than in carnivores. These analyses tested whether diet explains Tb evolution. Here, we focus instead on testing whether Tb helps explain the evolution of diet across tetrapods.
Location
Global.
Time Period
Past 350 million years.
Major Taxa Studied
Tetrapods.
Methods
We analysed 1712 species with matched data on diet and Tb using diverse phylogenetic methods.
Results
Ancestral reconstructions indicated that tetrapods likely had a carnivorous ancestor, followed by repeated transitions to omnivory and herbivory, especially in the last 110 million years. Thus, extant herbivorous lineages in tetrapods are relatively young, in contrast to many older carnivorous lineages. They are also relatively unstable in that reversals from herbivory back to omnivory and from omnivory back to carnivory were as frequent as the origins of herbivory and omnivory. Using phylogenetic logistic regression, we support the hypothesis that higher Tb helps explain the evolution of herbivory across tetrapods and within birds, mammals, lepidosaurs and turtles. Phylogenetic path analyses suggest that Tb generally drives the evolution of herbivory, and not vice versa. Our analyses also suggest that Tb is more important for the evolution of herbivory than large body size or diurnal diel activity, which are both significant predictors of herbivory in some cases.
Main Conclusions
Our results show for the first time that Tb is a significant predictor of diet evolution among and within many major animal clades.

Climate extremes are becoming more frequent under global warming, with substantial repercussions for vegetation growth. The degree to which climate extremes increase the risk of high-impact events on vegetation growth is of high concern.
Location
Northern Hemisphere (north of 30°N).
Time Period
From 2001 to 2022.
Major Taxa Studied
Plants.
Methods
We utilised solar-induced chlorophyll fluorescence (SIF) and the normalised difference vegetation index (NDVI) as proxies for vegetation growth. We performed event coincidence and sensitivity analyses to attribute satellite-derived vegetation growth extremes to diverse climate extremes (extreme heat, cold, wet and drought) in the Northern Hemisphere.
Results
Our results showed that extreme heat and cold were the main climatic extremes that induced positive and negative vegetation growth extremes north of 30°N, respectively, mainly in cold and humid ecosystems (boreal and temperate forests). Water-related extreme events accounted for less than one-third of vegetation extremes. The contribution of drought to positive vegetation growth extreme events (approximately 17%), mainly in cold and humid ecosystems, was even slightly higher than that of extreme wet (approximately 12%), which predominantly impacted relatively warm and arid ecosystems (croplands and temperate grasslands). We further identified potential climatic thresholds that could reverse vegetation growth responses to climate extremes (temperature is 12.5°C and climatic water deficit is -60 mm, approximately). We also showed that the past two decades of warming and precipitation changes did not induce a shift in the main climatic drivers of vegetation extremes across northern ecosystems.
Main Conclusions
Our results emphasise the crucial role of background hydrothermal conditions in the attribution of vegetation growth extremes to diverse climate extremes across northern ecosystems and have substantial implications for predicting how Northern Hemisphere vegetation will respond to increasing climate extremes in the future.

Aim
Long-standing theory predicts that the intensity of biotic interactions increases from high to low latitudes. Studies addressing geographic variation in predation on insect prey have often relied on prey models, which lack many characteristics of live prey. Our goals were to explore global latitudinal patterns of predator attack rates on standardised live insect prey and to compare the patterns in predation on live insects with those on plasticine prey models.
Location
Global forested areas.
Time Period
2021–2023.
Major Taxa
Arthropods, birds.
Methods
We measured predation rates in 43 forested locations distributed across five continents from 34.1° S to 69.5° N latitude. At each location, we exposed 20 sets of three bait types, one set per tree. Each set included three live fly larvae (maggots), three live fly puparia and three plasticine models of the puparia. We used glue rings to isolate half of the sets from non-flying predators.
Results
Arthropod attack rates on plasticine prey decreased linearly from low to high latitudes, whereas attack rates on maggots had a U shaped distribution, with the lowest predation rates at temperate latitudes and the highest rates at tropical and boreal latitudes. This difference emerged from intensive predator attacks on live maggots, but not on plasticine models, in boreal sites. Site-specific attack rates of arthropod predators on live and plasticine prey were not correlated. In contrast, bird attack rates on live maggots and plasticine models were positively correlated, but did not show significant latitudinal changes.
Main Conclusions
Latitudinal patterns in predation differ between major groups of predators and between types of prey. Poleward decreases in both arthropod and combined arthropod and bird predation on plasticine models do not mirror patterns of predation on our live prey, the latter likely reflecting real patterns of predation risk better than do patterns of attack on artificial prey.
目的长期以来的理论预测，生物相互作用的强度从高纬度向低纬度递增。针对昆虫猎物捕食的地理差异的研究通常依赖于猎物模型，而这种模型缺乏活体猎物的许多特征。我们的目标是探索捕食者对标准化活体昆虫猎物攻击率的全球纬度模式，并比较活体昆虫与塑性猎物模型的捕食模式。在每个地点，我们投放了 20 套三种类型的诱饵，每棵树一套。每组包括三只活苍蝇幼虫（蛆）、三只活苍蝇蛹和三只蛹的塑料模型。结果节肢动物对塑化猎物的攻击率从低纬度到高纬度呈线性下降，而对蝇蛆的攻击率呈 U 型分布，温带纬度的捕食率最低，热带和寒带纬度的捕食率最高。在北方地区，捕食者对活体蝇蛆进行密集攻击，而对塑化模型则不进行攻击，从而产生了这种差异。节肢动物捕食者对活体猎物和塑化猎物的攻击率与具体地点无关。相比之下，鸟类对活蛆和塑化模型的攻击率呈正相关，但没有显示出显著的纬度变化。节肢动物以及节肢动物和鸟类对塑化剂模型捕食量的极向减少并不反映我们对活体猎物的捕食模式，后者可能比对人工猎物的攻击模式更能反映捕食风险的真实模式。

目的正在发生的气候变化是全球许多生物人口过程的主要决定因素。鸟类，尤其是长途迁徙鸟类，对这种变化尤为敏感。为了更好地理解这些变化对长途迁徙鸟类繁殖生产力的影响，我们检验了三个假设，重点是(i)与不同气候变量的关系形状，包括以前很少检验的二次反应，以及(ii)平均气候条件和(iii)从西班牙到芬兰的各个地区的气候变化速度所预测的这些关系的地区差异。地点欧洲.时间段2004-2021.研究的主要类群长途迁徙的通鸟.方法我们从覆盖 34° 纬度的 11 个欧洲国家的恒定努力环志点计算了繁殖生产力，并从 E-OBS 和 NASA MODIS 数据集中提取了与温度和降水相关的气候变量。结果我们发现生产力对温度、生长度日、返青开始日期和降水异常的响应呈驼峰形，而对各地区强降雨和长时间降雨的响应呈负值。除积温最高的地区外，3 月气温和 4 月生长度日对寒冷地区的负面影响比对温暖地区的影响更大，而 6 月降水异常的增加与干旱和潮湿地区生产力的提高相关。主要结论正如生态学理论所预期的那样，气候对鸟类生产力的影响经常是非线性的。气候变化的速度不如区域气候年际变异性（预测会增加）重要，但这可能会随着未来气候变化的进展而改变。如果超常水量增加的频率或强度增加，长途迁徙鸣禽的生产力尤其会下降。

Aim
We map global patterns of taxonomic and functional change between past (pre-human impacts) and present (after anthropogenic extinctions and introductions) in large oceanic island bird assemblages and investigate if these patterns can be explained by island characteristics and anthropogenic factors.
Location
Sixty-four oceanic islands (>100 km2).
Time Period
Late Holocene.
Major Taxa Studied
Terrestrial and freshwater bird species.
Methods
We compiled information on extinct, extant native and introduced bird species for all islands and used a probabilistic hypervolume approach to build a multi-dimensional trait space and calculate several functional diversity metrics before and after extinctions and introductions. We identified which islands are global hotspots of human-induced transformation by mapping multiple facets of biotic change and investigated intrinsic island characteristics and anthropogenic factors as drivers for these observed patterns.
Results
The Hawaiian and Mascarene islands stand out as hotspots of taxonomic and functional change, but all islands changed taxonomically and functionally, mostly gaining species but losing functional richness. Taxonomic and functional changes vary across islands but are often consistent within the same archipelago. Island isolation and surface can explain some of the observed variations, but anthropogenic factors, namely human occupation, also shaped both taxonomic and functional changes. Islands with higher human pressure, as well as larger islands with high elevation ranges, tended to have greater losses in functional richness.
Main Conclusions
Most biodiversity change assessments are still largely based exclusively on taxonomic diversity, which is particularly worrying in the case of oceanic islands given that the magnitude of functional diversity change is often considerably larger. We call for comprehensive assessments of changes in both taxonomic and functional diversity across oceanic islands in order to better understand the drivers of these changes and, in turn, predict future trends.

Changes in climate are likely to have major impacts on benefits (i.e., biodiversity and ecosystem services) supported by trees. Here we explore the extent to which trees can support multiple benefits, and the potential tradeoffs among them, under increasing dryness.
Location
Eastern Australia.
Time period
2018–2019.
Major taxa studied
Trees.
Methods
We evaluated changes in biodiversity and services supported by trees and the nature of potential tradeoffs in response to increasing aridity, our proxy of drying regional climates. We assessed six benefits (biodiversity and five ecosystem services) supported by trees at 126 sites across a gradient from Australia's mesic coast to the arid interior.
Results
The value of average benefits did not vary with aridity, with winners and losers in biodiversity and ecosystem services as aridity intensified. Tradeoffs between biodiversity and soil stability declined with increasing aridity, but only in mesic environments, whereas tradeoffs between wood production potential and carbon storage intensified under greater aridity levels, but only in mesic environments. Aridity and tree structure were the major regulators of these tradeoffs, particularly under dry environments. Increasing aridity affected tradeoffs directly or indirectly by either suppressing the positive effect of tree height or exacerbating the negative effect of tree canopy size.
Main conclusions
Our results indicate that biodiversity and most ecosystem services supported by trees are likely to decline under future climate change scenarios and demonstrate the importance of targeting afforestation programs to specific services in particular climatic areas rather than attempting to improve multiple services.

In parallel, we tested the effect of dispersal ability on the stability at multiple spatial scales, using a butterfly mobility index as an indicator of dispersal capacity.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 \u0000 <section>\u0000 \u0000 <h3> Results</h3>\u0000 \u0000 <p>Regional stability strongly reflected local stability, which in turn was driven by both taxonomic and functional α-diversity. Spatial asynchrony was also important for regional stability and it was driven by both functional β-diversity and metapopulation asynchrony, which in turn increased with spatial distance among communities. We observed a positive effect of temperature on functional α-diversity and on local stability, whereas precipitation negatively influenced local diversity. Finally, spatial asynchrony contributed more to the regional stability of less mobile species compared to highly mobile ones, indicating that both extrinsic and intrinsic determinants of connectivity impact regional stability indirectly.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 \u0000 <section>\u0000 \u0000 <h3> Main Conclusions</h3>\u0000 \u0000 <p>Our results demonstrate the importance of local and regional processes for regional stability. However, the relative contribution of spatial asynchrony and metapopulation asynchrony increases with connectivity loss, especially for less mobile species, indicating that landscape management should be tailored depending on the dispersal capacity of organisms.
