Climate change is expected to increase the frequency and severity of droughts. These
events, which can cause significant perturbations of terrestrial ecosystems and potentially …

Trait-based approaches are increasingly recognized as a tool for understanding ecosystem
re-assembly and function under intensifying global change. Here we synthesize trait-based …

Climate change is altering the frequency and severity of drought events. Recent evidence
indicates that drought may produce legacy effects on soil microbial communities. However, it …

Climate change is driving ecological shifts in coastal regions of the world, where low
topographic relief makes ecosystems particularly vulnerable to sea‐level rise, salinization …

Anthropogenic nutrient enrichment is known to alter the composition and functioning of plant
communities. However, how nutrient enrichment influences multiple dimensions of …

Accelerating rates of biodiversity loss underscore the need to understand how species
achieve resilience—the ability to resist and recover from a/biotic disturbances. Yet, the …

Eutrophication usually impacts grassland biodiversity, community composition, and biomass
production, but its impact on the stability of these community aspects is unclear. One …

Past research on plant-soil feedbacks (PSF), largely undertaken in highly controlled
greenhouse conditions, has established that plant species differentially alter abiotic and …

Climate change is interacting with water resource pressures to alter the frequency, severity
and spatial extent of drought, which can thus no longer be considered a purely natural …

Anthropogenic climate change is increasing the incidence of climate extremes.
Consequences of climate extremes on biodiversity can be highly detrimental, yet few studies …
