In many parts of the world forest disturbance regimes have intensified recently, and future
climatic changes are expected to amplify this development further in the coming decades …

The effects of anthropogenic climate change on biodiversity are well known for some high‐
profile Australian marine systems, including coral bleaching and kelp forest devastation …

Wildfires are predicted to increase in both frequency and severity across Mediterranean
climate regions worldwide. While many Mediterranean-type ecosystems are considered …

Soil erosion rates after wildfire are strongly controlled by intrinsic properties such as
topography, weather, climate, soil, and vegetation. These landscape and hydroclimatic …

Background and aims Soil factors are driving forces that influence spatial distribution and
functional traits of plant species. We test whether two anchor morphological traits—leaf mass …

Nocturnal fluxes may be a significant factor in the annual water budget of forested
ecosystems. Here, we assessed sap flow in two co-occurring evergreen species (Eucalyptus …

The impact of bushfire events on wild Koala (Phascolarctos cinereus) populations is poorly
understood. Following the 2019/2020 bushfire season in eastern Australia, we resurveyed …

Questions Climate change‐type drought (the combination of drought and heatwave) has
become a widely documented driver of forest dieback yet, to date, limited measurement of …

Reversing forest losses through restoration, improvement, and conservation is a critical goal
for greenhouse gas mitigation. Here, we examine some ecological, demographic, and …

Dead wood, including dead standing trees (DST) and coarse woody debris (CWD), is a
critical component of forest ecosystems that provides habitat and refugia for fauna, flora, and …
