Mangroves in arid regions: Ecology, threats, and opportunities

M. F. Adame et al.

Summary: Mangroves in arid climates are unique ecosystems that can survive extreme conditions and have distinctive characteristics in terms of geomorphology, hydrology, forest structure, tree physiology, and soil biogeochemistry. Despite facing threats like extreme drought and alterations in hydrology, these mangroves typically have low human pressure and are under-represented in global maps and assessment programs. Restoration efforts should focus on restoring their hydrology to sustain their valuable ecosystem services.

Weak phylogenetic and climatic signals in plant heat tolerance

Timothy M. Perez et al.

Summary: The study examined the relationship between plant heat tolerance and different species and climatic environments, finding that plant heat tolerance is not phylogenetically conserved, but significant differences exist among different groups. The research suggests that variations in heat tolerance in plants may be better explained by differences in microenvironment, thermoregulatory traits, and leaf temperatures.

Seasonal atmospheric and oceanographic factors influencing poleward mangrove expansion in the southeastern American coast

Arimatea C. Ximenes et al.

Summary: This study analyzes key environmental variables and assesses other environmental players to better understand the factors that could determine the species range limits in eastern South America. The results suggest that multiple factors, such as longshore drift and chilling events during winter, could prevent a poleward dispersion of mangrove species depending on the season.

Photosystem II heat tolerances characterize thermal generalists and the upper limit of carbon assimilation

Timothy M. Perez et al.

Summary: The study indicates that high PSII heat tolerance is unlikely to improve carbon assimilation at higher temperatures, but may characterize thermal generalists with slow resource acquisition strategies.

Leaf heat tolerance of 147 tropical forest species varies with elevation and leaf functional traits, but not with phylogeny

Martijn Slot et al.

Summary: The study surveyed the leaf heat tolerance of 147 tropical lowland and pre-montane forest species, finding that heat tolerance partially decreases with increasing environmental temperature, but is positively correlated with the thermal time constant of leaves. Additionally, species with structurally more costly leaves have a reduced risk of leaf loss during hot spells.

Water availability influences thermal safety margins for leaves

Alicia M. Cook et al.

Summary: The study highlights the importance of considering plant water status in assessments of thermal vulnerability, as heat tolerance and vulnerability can change with water availability. High physiological heat thresholds may not always indicate wide safety margins, but instead reveal a greater vulnerability to heat stress. Using leaf temperatures rather than air temperatures for calculating TSMs can lead to more meaningful vulnerability assessments.
