The Indian summer monsoon (ISM) governs the hydrological and agricultural foundation of South Asia, yet its response to anthropogenic warming remains uncertain and regionally diverse. Here we assess projected mean rainfall, variability and categorised monsoon extremes using six skill‐selected CMIP6 models (BCC‐CSM2‐MR, CMCC‐CM2‐SR5, FIO‐ESM‐2‐0, MCM‐UA‐1‐0, MIROC6, TaiESM1) evaluated against the high‐resolution IMD 0.25° datas...

The Asia region harbors exceptional chondrichthyan (shark, ray, and chimaera) diversity but faces intense fishing pressure. The Important Shark and Ray Areas (ISRA) process provides a collaborative, evidence-based framework to identify critical habitats and inform spatial management. We assessed ISRAs across the Bay of Bengal, Southeast Asia, and the Northwest Pacific to characterize their extent, ecological significance, and...

Conspecific density dependence (CDD) in plant populations is widespread, most likely caused by local‐scale biotic interactions, and has potentially important implications for biodiversity, community composition, and ecosystem processes. However, progress in this important area of ecology has been hindered by differing viewpoints on CDD across subfields in ecology, lack of synthesis across CDD‐related frameworks, and misunderst...
