Quantifying the gap from scientific evidence to environmental policy and implementation across scales

Luna Morcillo, Elysa Silva, Roberto Rodríguez-Caro, Diana Turrión et autres

Assessing key dimensions of the broader science-policy-implementation gap is crucial in an era of global environmental threats to human well-being. We quantify the time required for ecological concepts to be incorporated into United Nations environmental conventions and test whether concept age and …

Semi-arid grasses combine contrasting strategies of dehydration tolerance associated with carbohydrate storage and embolism resistance under drought

Maria Dolores Hidalgo-Galvez, Chaïa Akhoun-Piernicka, Gerónimo Cardozo, Annette Morvan-Bertrand et autres

Dehydration tolerance and embolism resistance contribute to plant drought survival, but their limits and combinations in perennial grasses remain unexplored. We investigated four grasses (Stipa species and Dactylis subspecies) from Mediterranean sites prone to intense summer drought. Plant tolerance to soil water …

What does it take to move from scientific evidence to global environmental policy and multi-scale implementation?

Luna Morcillo, Elysa Silva, Roberto C. Rodríguez‐Caro, Diana Turrión et autres

Assessing key dimensions of the broader science–policy–implementation gap is crucial in an era of global environmental threats to human well-being. Here, we evaluate (i) the time lag in the uptake of ecological concepts by United Nations environmental conventions, and (ii) how concept …

Phenotypic plasticity of water-related traits reveals boundaries to the adaptive capacity of a dominant European grass species under increased drought

Gerónimo Cardozo, Karim Barkaoui, Maria Dolores Hidalgo-Galvez, Florence A. Volaire

The intensification of droughts due to climate change is a global concern, and many plant species face increasing water deficits. Understanding the role of phenotypic plasticity in plant adaptation to these changing conditions is crucial. This research focuses on Bromopsis erecta , …

Impact of future scenarios of climate change on lignin dynamics in soil: A case study in a Mediterranean savannah

Layla M. San Emeterio, Maria Dolores Hidalgo-Galvez, Ignacio Manuel Pérez-Ramos, José Antonío González‐Pérez

Lignin is an abundant and recalcitrant biopolymer of major relevance as soil organic matter (SOM) component playing a significant role in its stabilization. In this work, a factorial field experiment was established, where three climatic treatments (W, warming; D, drought; W + …

Impact of climate change on pasture quality in Mediterranean dehesas subjected to different grazing histories

Maria Dolores Hidalgo-Galvez, Luis Matías, Jesús Cambrollé, Eduardo de A. Gutierrez et autres

Abstract Background and aims Forecasted climate change and overgrazing are threatening the sustainability of dehesas, human-managed ecosystems where pastures, livestock and scattered trees coexist. Pasture quality is particularly sensitive to these global-change drivers, but there are still many gaps to broaden knowledge …

Three years of warming and rainfall reduction alter leaf physiology but not relative abundance of an annual species in a Mediterranean savanna

Jesús Rodríguez‐Calcerrada, Víctor Chano, Luis Matías, Maria Dolores Hidalgo-Galvez et autres

Increasing air temperatures and decreasing rainfall can alter Mediterranean ecosystems, where summer heat and drought already limit plant regeneration. Manipulative field studies can help to understand and anticipate community responses to climate changes. In a Mediterranean oak wooded pasture, we have investigated …

Can trees buffer the impact of climate change on pasture production and digestibility of Mediterranean dehesas?

Maria Dolores Hidalgo-Galvez, Karim Barkaoui, Florence A. Volaire, Luis Matías et autres

Sustainability and functioning of silvopastoral ecosystems are being threatened by the forecasted warmer and drier environments in the Mediterranean region. Scattered trees of these ecosystems could potentially mitigate the impact of climate change on herbaceous plant community but this issue has not …

Transgenerational responses to climate change in Mediterranean annual species with contrasting functional strategies

Blanca Gallego‐Tévar, Maria Dolores Hidalgo-Galvez, Jesús Cambrollé, Marcelino Martínez-Muñoz et autres

Increasing temperature and aridity predicted by climate change models in the Mediterranean region will pose a significant challenge for the survival of some plant species. The mechanisms by which species modify their phenotype across generations in response to the environment have been …

Direct and indirect effects of global change on mycorrhizal associations of savanna plant communities

Ignacio Manuel Pérez-Ramos, Andrea Álvarez-Méndez, Katharina Wald, Luis Matías et autres

Mycorrhizal fungi are key components of whole‐plant adaptive strategies to cope with different abiotic and biotic constraints. Although they are particularly sensitive to different global change drivers, there are still many gaps on the mechanisms underpinning shifts in mycorrhizal associations under different …

Epigenetic responses of hare barley (Hordeum murinum subsp. leporinum) to climate change: an experimental, trait-based approach

Víctor Chano, Tania Domínguez-Flores, Maria Dolores Hidalgo-Galvez, Jesús Rodríguez‐Calcerrada et autres

The impact of reduced rainfall and increased temperatures forecasted by climate change models on plant communities will depend on the capacity of plant species to acclimate and adapt to new environmental conditions. The acclimation process is mainly driven by epigenetic regulation, including …
