Demographic consequences of phenological shifts in response to climate change
When a phenological shift affects a demographic vital rate such as survival or reproduction,
the altered vital rate may or may not have population-level consequences. We review the …

Orchid conservation: from theory to practice
Background Given the exceptional diversity of orchids (26 000+ species), improving
strategies for the conservation of orchids will benefit a vast number of taxa. Furthermore, with …

A framework for predicting intraspecific variation in plant defense
One of the most well-supported theories regarding the evolution of plant defenses is the
resource availability hypothesis (RAH). RAH posits that species from high-resource …

We need more realistic climate change experiments for understanding ecosystems of the future
Advances in global climate modeling have significantly increased our understanding and
confidence in projections for future climate scenarios (Bonan & Doney, 2018). However …

Interactive life‐history traits predict sensitivity of plants and animals to temporal autocorrelation
Temporal autocorrelation in demographic processes is an important aspect of population
dynamics, but a comprehensive examination of its effects on different life‐history strategies …

Reproductive losses due to climate change‐induced earlier flowering are not the primary threat to plant population viability in a perennial herb
Despite a global footprint of shifts in flowering phenology in response to climate change, the
reproductive consequences of these shifts are poorly understood. Furthermore, it is …

Biotic and anthropogenic forces rival climatic/abiotic factors in determining global plant population growth and fitness
Multiple, simultaneous environmental changes, in climatic/abiotic factors, interacting
species, and direct human influences, are impacting natural populations and thus …

Lagged and dormant season climate better predict plant vital rates than climate during the growing season
Understanding the effects of climate on the vital rates (eg, survival, development,
reproduction) and dynamics of natural populations is a long‐standing quest in ecology, with …

Climate limitation at the cold edge: contrasting perspectives from species distribution modelling and a transplant experiment
The role of climate in determining range margins is often studied using species distribution
models (SDMs), which are easily applied but have well‐known limitations, eg due to their …
