3 CONTENTS ECOSPHERE VOLUME 9 NUMBER 11 NOVEMBER 2018 COVER PHOTO: Rhododendron macrophyllum in full bloom in May 2016 in the understory of a forest stand that was previously thinned and burned as part of a management experiment. Ward et al. (Ecosphere Volume 9, Issue 10, Article e02451; doi: /ecs2.2451) found that years with regional conditions predicted by continued climate change showed a loss of diversity in both microclimate and phenological events, with a more rapid advancement in bud break occurring at higher elevation sites.

6 AIMS & SCOPE The scope of Ecosphere is as broad as the science of ecology itself. The journal welcomes submissions from all sub-disciplines of ecological science, as well as interdisciplinary studies relating to ecology. The journal s goal is to provide a rapid-publication, online- only, open-access alternative to ESA s other journals, while maintaining the rigorous standards of peer review for which ESA publications are renowned.
