Abstract: Riparian restoration in the southwestern United States frequently involves planting cottonwood (Populus spp.) and willow (Salix spp.). In the absence of flooding and gap‐forming disturbance, planted forests often senesce without further young tree recruitment. This… read more here.

DOI: 10.1242/jeb.232777
Abstract: ABSTRACT At a global scale, thermal physiology is correlated with climatic variables such as temperature and aridity. There is also evidence that thermoregulatory traits vary with fine-scale microclimate, but this has received less attention in… read more here.
