• A consistent species richness–climate relationship for oaks across the Northern Hemisphere 

      Xu, Xiaoting; Dimitrov, Dimitar; Shrestha, Nawal; Rahbek, Carsten; Wang, Zhiheng (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-04-15)
      Aim Although the effects of climate on species richness are known, regional processes may lead to different species richness–climate relationships across continents resulting in species richness anomalies, especially for ...
    • Drivers of large‐scale geographical variation in sexual systems of woody plants 

      Wang, Yunyun; Lyu, Tong; Shrestha, Nawal; Lyu, Lisha; Li, Yaoqi; Schmid, Bernhard; Freckleton, Robert; Dimitrov, Dimitar; Liu, Shuguang; Hao, Zhanqing; Wang, Zhiheng (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      Aim: Sexual systems strongly influence angiosperm evolution and play important roles in community assembly and species responses to climate change. However, geographical variation in proportions of different sexual systems ...
    • Global raster dataset on historical coastline positions and shelf sea extents since the Last Glacial Maximum 

      De Groeve, Johannes; Kusumoto, Buntarou; Koene, Erik F.M.; Kissling, W. Daniel; Seijmonsbergen, Arie C.; Hoeksema, Bert W; Yasuhara, Moriaki; Norder, Sietze J.; Cahyarini, Sri Yudawati; Van der Geer, Alexandra; Meijer, Hanneke Johanna Maria Farstad; Kubota, Yasuhiro; Rijsdijk, Kenneth F. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)
      Motivation: Historical changes in sea level caused shifting coastlines that affected the distribution and evolution of marine and terrestrial biota. At the onset of the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) 26 ka, sea levels were ...
    • Ocean current connectivity propelling the secondary spread of a marine invasive comb jelly across western Eurasia 

      Jaspers, Cornelia; Huwer, Bastian; Antajan, Elvire; Hosia, Aino; Hinrichsen, Hans-Harald; Biastoch, Arne; Angel, Dror; Asmus, Ragnhild; Augustin, Christina; Bagheri, Siamak; Beggs, Steven E.; Balsby, Thorsten J.S.; Boersma, Maarten; Bonnet, Delphine; Christensen, Jens T.; Dänhardt, Andreas; Delpy, Floriane; Falkenhaug, Tone; Finenko, Galina; Fleming, Nicholas E.C.; Fuentes, Veronica; Galil, Bella S.; Gittenberger, Arjan; Griffin, Donal C.; Haslob, Holger; Javidpour, Jamileh; Kamburska, Lyudmila; Kube, Sandra; Langenberg, Victor; Lehtiniemi, Maiju; Lombard, Fabien; Malzahn, Arne; Marambio, Macarena; Mihneva, Veselina; Møller, Lene Friis; Niermann, Ulrich; Okyar, Melek Isinibilir; Ôzdemir, Zekiye Birinci; Pitois, Sophie; Reusch, Thorsten B.H.; Robbens, Johan; Stefanova, Kremena; Thibault, Delphine; van der Veer, Henk W.; Vansteenbrugge, Lies; van Walraven, Lodewijk; Woźniczka, Adam (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-07-24)
      Aim: Invasive species are of increasing global concern. Nevertheless, the mechanisms driving further distribution after the initial establishment of non‐native species remain largely unresolved, especially in marine systems. ...
    • Spatio-temporal patterns in the woodiness of flowering plants 

      Luo, Ao; Xu, Xiaoting; Liu, Yunpeng; Li, Yaoqi; Su, Xiangyan; Li, Yichao; Lyu, Tong; Dimitrov, Dimitar Stefanov; Larjavaara, Markku; Peng, Shijia; Chen, Yongsheng; Wang, Qinggang; Zimmermann, Niklaus E.; Pellissier, Loïc; Schmid, Bernhard; Wang, Zhiheng (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)
      Aim Woody and herbaceous habits represent one of the most distinct contrasts among angiosperms, and the proportion of woody species in floras (i.e., “woodiness” hereafter) represents a fundamental structural element of ...
