How climate, topography, soils, herbivores, and fire control forest–grassland coexistence in the Eurasian forest‐steppe
Recent advances in ecology and biogeography demonstrate the importance of fire and large
herbivores–and challenge the primacy of climate–to our understanding of the distribution …

Between‐year weather differences and long‐term environmental trends both contribute to observed vegetation changes in a plot resurvey study
Repeated surveys of vegetation plots offer a viable tool to detect fine‐scale responses of
vegetation to environmental changes. In this study, our aim was to explore how the species …
