The increasing frequency of extreme droughts poses significant challenges for predicting the
invasion success (or failure) of non-native plant species. While current frameworks are …

Due to climate change, the amount, frequency, and intensity of precipitation worldwide are
changing. There is increasing evidence that hydrological change severely affects species …

Assisted tree migration has been proposed as a conceptual solution to mitigate lags in biotic
responses to anthropogenic climate change. The rationale behind this concept is that tree …

Introduction Shrub promotes the survival, growth and reproduction of understory species by
buffering the environmental extremes and improving limited resources (ie, facilitation effect) …

Drought is one of the major barriers to the socio-economic development of a region. To
manage and reduce the impact of drought, drought vulnerability modelling is important. The …

Plant–plant interactions under extreme environmental stress are still controversial. The
stress gradient hypothesis (SGH) proposes that facilitation prevails under extreme …

The spatial pattern of vegetation can reflect the impacts of the environment on plants and the
response of plants to the environment, which can promote a deep understanding of the …

Global change is a multifaceted, unprecedented crisis hitting the life support system of our
planet. Among global changes, climate change is regarded as one of the most grave threats …

Despite the recognition of positive interactions as an important driver of species coexistence
and community structure, the underlying mechanism of how facilitation affects assembly …

Native habitat‐forming species can facilitate invasion by reducing environmental stress or
consumer pressure. However, the intensity of one stressor along a local gradient may differ …
