Aim Variation in species composition among locations (β‐diversity) is of fundamental interest in ecology, yet its dependence on spatial extent and grain has rarely been assessed empirically. This study provides a systematic empirical test of the spatial scaling of β‐diversity and highlights the importance of study design for detecting the role of environmental filtering in shaping regional β‐diversity. Location Northeastern Ch...

During the late summer (July–August) of 2024, the Northeast China (NEC) suffered extreme precipitation and severe floods, with rainfall in southern NEC marking the highest recorded since 1985. Using the daily precipitation records from 245 national meteorological stations across the NEC, this study analyses the characteristics of the rainfall anomalies and the associated large‐scale circulation patterns in the late summer of 2...

The development of the ocean economy plays a vital role in national strategic planning, yet it faces persistent financing challenges due to high risks, long investment cycles, and significant information asymmetries. This study constructs a tripartite evolutionary game model involving government, banks, and marine enterprises to explore effective financial support strategies for the ocean economy. Through replicator dynamic eq...

Aim Nitrogen deposition is a widespread global change driver that significantly affects terrestrial ecosystems. However, evidence on the specific mechanisms of productivity response to nitrogen deposition in temperate forests across ecological and climatic gradients is scarce. This study evaluates the effects of nitrogen deposition, multiple attributes of biodiversity and climate on productivity in a large temperate forest reg...
