A comprehensive evaluation of predictive performance of 33 species distribution models at species and community levels
(Wiley Periodicals, Inc. on behalf of Ecological Society of America, 2019-08)
A large array of species distribution model (SDM) approaches has been developed for explaining and predicting the occurrences of individual species or species assemblages. Given the wealth of existing models, it is unclear ...
Greater focus needed on alien plant impacts in protected areas
(Wiley Periodicals, Inc. on behalf of Society for Conservation Biology, 2014-09)
Alien plants pose significant threats to protected areas worldwide yet many studies only describe the degree to which these areas have become invaded. Research must move toward a better understanding of alien plant impacts ...
Eating at high elevation: An herbivorous beetle from alpine rock outcrops relies on ammonia-absorbing lichens
(Wiley on behalf of the Ecological Society of America, 2019-01-08)
The flightless endemic New Zealand beetle, Protodendrophagus antipodes Thomas 2003 (Coleoptera: Silvanidae: Brontinae: Brontini; Fig. 1a, b), is unique among its tribe of 12 globally distributed genera in exchanging the ...
A conceptual map of invasion biology: Integrating hypotheses into a consensus network
(Wiley, 2020-06-01)
Global Ecology and Biogeography published by John Wiley & Sons Ltd Background and aims: Since its emergence in the mid-20th century, invasion biology has matured into a productive research field addressing questions of ...
Mycorrhizal co-invasion and novel interactions depend on neighborhood context
(John Wiley & Sons, Inc. on behalf of the Ecological Society of America, 2015-09)
© 2015 by the Ecological Society of America. Biological invasions are a rapidly increasing driver of global change, yet fundamental gaps remain in our understanding of the factors determining the success or extent of ...
Intraspecific variation in indirect plant–soil feedbacks influences a wetland plant invasion
(Ecological Society of America, 2018-06-01)
Plant–soil feedbacks (PSFs) influence plant competition via direct interactions with pathogens and mutualists or indirectly via apparent competition/mutualisms (i.e., spillover to co-occurring plants) and soil legacy ...
Quantifying invasion resistance: the use of recruitment functions to control for propagule pressure
(John Wiley & Sons, Inc. on behalf of the Ecological Society of America, 2014-04)
Invasive species distributions tend to be biased towards some habitats compared to others due to the combined effects of habitat-specific resistance to invasion and non-uniform propagule pressure. These two factors may ...
