We introduce the AusTraits database-a compilation of values of plant traits for taxa in the
Australian flora (hereafter AusTraits). AusTraits synthesises data on 448 traits across 28,640 …

Aim Temporal variation in environmental conditions merits greater consideration in species
distribution models (SDMs), and is especially relevant in dynamic systems, such as arid and …

A fundamental requirement of sustainable forest management is that stands are adequately
regenerated after harvesting. To date, most research has focused on the regeneration of the …

Abstract Changes in community diversity and dynamics after fires in Mediterranean
ecosystems are rarely investigated more than a few years after the fire even though …

Abstract Models of vegetation dynamics framed as testable hypotheses provide powerful
tools for predicting vegetation change in response to contemporary disturbances or climate …

Abstract The Gondwana Link (GL) program spans some 1,000 km and includes
organizations, businesses, and individuals working to improve ecological function across …

Aim Many dry forests and woodlands worldwide are fire‐prone and support bird and plant
communities shaped by fire. Changes in fire regimes, including the time between fires, have …

Habitat modification by fire and habitat loss via anthropogenic vegetation clearance and
fragmentation both impact animal populations. Yet, there has been limited investigation as to …

Understanding species diversity and disturbance relationships is important for biodiversity
conservation in disturbance‐driven boreal forests. Species richness and evenness may …

Bounded by ocean and desert, the isolated, predominately Mediterranean‐climate region of
south‐western Australia (SWA) includes nine bioregions (circa 44 million hectares). The …
