Buffering effects of soil seed banks on plant community composition in response to land use and climate

Jan Plue et al.

Summary: This study investigates the potential role of soil seed banks in different habitats in Europe and finds that high seed bank diversity and compositional similarity with the herb layer may act as a functional buffer against the impact of global environmental changes on plant communities. However, climate warming could threaten this capacity. Dormant life-history stages can be important sources of diversity in changing environments, but their ability to buffer change may only be temporary.

Microclimatic edge-to-interior gradients of European deciduous forests

Camille Meeussen et al.

Summary: Global forest cover is heavily fragmented, with forest edges being influenced by both biotic and abiotic factors. The microclimatic conditions at the forest edge are mainly determined by macroclimate and edge structure, showing significant temperature offsets in deciduous forests across Europe.

Forest microclimates and climate change: Importance, drivers and future research agenda

Pieter De Frenne et al.

Summary: Understanding forests' biodiversity and functions in relation to climate change requires integrating forest microclimates into ecological research. Future research should focus on unraveling the drivers and feedbacks of forest microclimates, mapping and predicting global and regional forest microclimates, and analyzing the impacts of microclimate on forest biodiversity and ecosystem functioning in the face of climate change. The availability of microclimatic data will revolutionize our understanding of the dynamics and implications of forest microclimates on biodiversity and ecological functions.
