Fig. 4. Schematic representation of the centres and sub-centres of the Cape element in sub-Sahelian Africa (from Carbutt, 2004; Carbutt and Edwards, 2012; updated from Weimarck, 1941). The high elevation sub-centres in particular are often fragmented, hence the need for two hyphenated names when considering two dominant enclaves of close proximity. The most modern and geographically accurate names have been used. For example, 'Abessinian Sub-centre' is now 'Ethiopian Sub-centre'; 'Rungwe Sub-centre' is now 'Nyika-Rungwe Subcentre'; 'Mitumba-Rwenzori Sub-centre' is an amalgamation of Weimarck's (1941) 'Katanga' and 'Kivu' Sub-centres, named after the Mitumba Highlands, and the dominant Rwenzori Mountains further north. The double-sided arrows denote possible dual-direction migration events that may have resulted in reciprocal exchange of taxa between centres.

Fig. 5. Schematic representation of the intervals between centres and sub-centres of the Cape element in sub-Sahelian Africa (from Carbutt, 2004; updated from Weimarck, 1941). Symbols: ▲, high elevation centres and sub-centres of the Cape element; ●, low elevation centre of the Cape element (Pondoland Centre). Most names are derived from the geographic regions in which the intervals occur.

Dataset associated to the manuscript "A novel method for characterising the inter- and intra-lake variability of CH4 emissions: validation and application across a latitudinal transect in the Alpine region"
<p>The dataset comprises data collected from nine specifically chosen lakes located across the eastern Alps during the ALCH4 project. The primary objective of this project was to assess the efficacy of a mobile Eddy Covariance platform in characterizing CH4 emissions. The field measurements were conducted throughout the ice-free periods in the years 2018 and 2019. This dataset encompasses: i) the EddyPro 7.0.6 (LI-COR Inc., Lincoln, NE, USA) output for all Eddy Covariance campaigns; ii) outcomes of the chamber measurements; iii) data obtained from surface samples. This research was funded by the Autonomous Province of Bozen/Bolzano.</p>

Expanding forests in alpine regions lead to a corresponding shift in belowground fungal communities
<p>Climate change causes upward shift of forest lines worldwide, with consequences on soil biota and carbon sequestration (C). We here analyse compositional changes in the soil biota across the forest line ecotone, an important transition zone between different ecosystems. We collected soil samples along transects stretching from subalpine mountain birch forests to low-alpine vegetation. Soil fungi and micro-eukaryotes were surveyed using DNA metabarcoding of the 18S and ITS2 markers, while ergosterol was used to quantify fungal biomass. We observed a strong shift in the soil biota across the forest line ecotone: Below the forest line, there were higher proportions of basidiomycetes and mucoromycetes, including ectomycorrhizal and saprotrophic fungi. Above, we observed relatively more root-associated ascomycetes, including Archaeorhizomycetes, ericoid mycorrhizal fungi and dark septate endophytes. Ergosterol and percentage C content in soil strongly and positively correlated with the abundance of root-associated ascomycetes. The predominance of ectomycorrhizal and saprotrophic fungi below the forest line likely promote high C turnover, while root-associated ascomycetes above the forest line may enhance C sequestration. With further rise in forest lines, there will be a corresponding shift in the belowground biota, likely leading to enhanced release of soil C.</p>

Data from: Upward elevation and northwest range shifts for alpine Meconopsis species in the Himalaya-Hengduan Mountains region
Climate change may impact the distribution of species by shifting their ranges to higher elevations or higher latitudes. The impacts on alpine plant species may be particularly profound due to a potential lack of availability of future suitable habitat. To identify how alpine species have responded to climate change during the past century as well as to predict how they may react to possible global climate change scenarios in the future, we investigate the climatic responses of seven species of Meconopsis, a representative genus endemic in the alpine meadow and subnival region of the Himalaya–Hengduan Mountains. We analyzed past elevational shifts, as well as projected shifts in longitude, latitude, elevation, and range size using historical specimen records and species distribution modeling under optimistic (RCP 4.5) and pessimistic (RCP 8.5) scenarios across three general circulation models for 2070. Our results indicate that across all seven species, there has been an upward shift in mean elevation of 302.3 m between the pre‐1970s (1922–1969) and the post‐1970s (1970–2016). The model predictions suggest that the future suitable climate space will continue to shift upwards in elevation (as well as northwards and westwards) by 2070. While for most of the analyzed species, the area of suitable climate space is predicted to expand under the optimistic emission scenario, the area contracts, or, at best, shows little change under the pessimistic scenario. Species such as M. punicea, which already occupy high latitudes, are consistently predicted to experience a contraction of suitable climate space across all the models by 2070 and may consequently deserve particular attention by conservation strategies. Collectively, our results suggest that the alpine high‐latitude species analyzed here have already been significantly impacted by climate change and that these trends may continue over the coming decades.
