In dryland ecosystems, increased environmental stress often triggers a change from a uniform vegetation cover to patchy vegetation patterns. Some theoretical studies suggest that this spatial ...

Forest ecosystems are structured by the spatial arrangement of their constituent organisms, physical features and resource gradients. At the scale of individual trees, spatial patterns arise through ...

The reason why so many tree species can coexist in species-rich forests has long been a subject of debate in ecology. This question is key to understanding the mechanisms governing the dynamics and ...

Plant diversity is unevenly distributed across the globe, shaped by millions of years of diversification, dispersal, and ...

Abstract Parenthood introduces new constraints on adults’ spatial exploration, yet associations between mobility and parental mental health remain unexplored. We conducted conti ...
