ZHANG Jinlong, MA Xiaofang, QI Yuan, YANG Rui, LI Long, ZHANG Juan, MA Chao, WANG Lu, Hongwei Wang, WANG Hongwei
2025-07-17 ChinaXiv: chinaxiv-202507.00326 Mixed Source

Grassland is a key component of the ecosystem in the Qinghai Lake Basin, China. Understanding the effects of climate change and human activities on grassland productivity significantly improves ecological conservation and promotes sustainable vegetation growth in this area. Based on the net primary …

Applying joint species distribution modelling to assess the relative influence of ecological filters on community assembly in the El Bayadh steppe, Algeria postprint

Patrick-Nino OLOUMANE, Carlo PREVIL, Wael El ZEREY, Asma El ZEREY-BELASKRI, Patrick-Nino OLOUMANE
2025-07-17 ChinaXiv: chinaxiv-202507.00327 Mixed Source

Understanding plant community assembly is crucial for effective ecosystem conservation and restoration. The ecological filter framework describes community assembly as a process shaped by dispersal, environmental, and biotic filters. Additionally, functional traits and phylogenetic relationships are…
