TL;DR: Despite some degradation, fossil assemblages provide an accurate reconstruction of the past ecological dynamics of the vernal pool studied, which highlighted the value of a multidisciplinary approach based on several complementary methods, and provide direction for subsequent palaeoecological studies in temporary wetlands.

TL;DR: The obtained data confirm the heliophilous pioneer character of P. minuta and reveal a disturbance-favoured behaviour in Tunisia, as well as confirming the extinction of a quarter of its known populations over the last century.

TL;DR: Comparisons of surface pollen assemblages and floristic surveys of a temporary pool in Benslimane forest, western Morocco, suggest that reconstructions of past populations can be achieved from a few taxa, namely Isoetes velata-type, Myriophyllum alterniflorum and Ranunculus-type.

TL;DR: The competitive advantage of Bolboschoenus on Isoetes, was more related to hydrology than to soil richness, and may lead to the extinction, medium-term, of the populations of I. setacea.

TL;DR: The Andalusian International University held a workshop entitled Temporary wetlands future in drylands under the projected global change scenario in March 2020 in Baeza, Spain, with 26 participant as discussed by the authors.
