| City as a filter: urban density affects taxonomic and functional diversity of foliage dwelling spiders | ||
| Donnerstag, 19. Dezember 2024 | ||
| Abstract Context Urbanization affects landscape structure, functions and local environmental conditions, with major impacts on biodiversity. An evaluation of its effects on biodiversity, including both taxonomic and functional diversity, is thus compelling, with a specific focus on taxonomic groups providing fundamental ecosystem services. Spiders are ideal biological models for urban ecology studies because they are renowned... | ||
| Assessing the effects of land-use intensity on small mammal community composition and genetic variation in Myodes glareolus and Microtus arvalis across grassland and forest habitats | ||
| Samstag, 14. Dezember 2024 | ||
| Abstract Context Land-use intensification can alter small mammal community composition and induce loss of genetic variation in remaining populations. Fragmented landscapes favor generalist and synanthropic species, which are potential reservoirs of pathogens and pose risks to agriculture and forestry. Objectives This study aimed to evaluate... | ||

| Wood-living beetle diversity is enriched by surrounding broadleaf forest in a conifer forestry landscape | ||
| Freitag, 06. Dezember 2024 | ||
| Abstract Context Humans have drastically changed many of the world’s forests since the industrial revolution, with northern European forests among the most affected. Research is needed on consequent effects on forest biodiversity. Here I focus on the conservation-relevant wood-living beetles. Whilst previous studies have examined the effect of local stand characteristics on beetle diversity, the influence of the surrounding... | ||
| Spatiotemporal patterns of small carnivores in a human-dominated forest landscape shared with apex predators | ||
| Mittwoch, 04. Dezember 2024 | ||
| Abstract Context Rapid increases in human population and the resulting apex predator defaunation are affecting the spatial and temporal dynamics of small carnivores, with uncertain consequences for the ecological community. Documenting the spatiotemporal impact of apex predators and human disturbance on small carnivores becomes crucial to managers overseeing carnivore persistence... | ||
| Contrasting topography-vegetation relationships at natural and human-influenced mountain treelines in the Peruvian Andes | ||
| Mittwoch, 04. Dezember 2024 | ||
| Abstract Context The tropical Andes have a long history of human land use, which has affected vegetation patterns especially at high elevations. However, reference patterns to quantify these effects are missing due to lacking data from mountain ranges unaffected by humans. Objectives We compared landscape-scale patterns of forest distribution... | ||
| Constructing ecological network based on multi-objective genetic algorithms: a case study of Changsha City, China | ||
| Sonntag, 01. Dezember 2024 | ||
| Abstract Context Regional ecological security faces serious threats in a changing world. Ecological network (EN) provides decision-makers with spatial strategies for maintaining ecological security and landscape sustainability via alleviating the contradiction between ecological conservation and economic growth. Despite years of intense and fruitful studies, accurately identifying ecological source patches when facing multiple... | ||
| Scale and Zoning Effects on Landscape Metrics for Assessing Ecological Stress from Urban Expansion | ||
| Donnerstag, 28. November 2024 | ||
| Abstract Context Landscape metrics can effectively quantify urban landscape dynamics and their ecological stress, but incorrect metric, scale and zoning choices may lead to inaccurate result and biased land use planning. Objectives This study aims to explore how the scale and zoning affected the magnitude and spatial pattern of ecological... | ||
| Cropland functional diversity increases ecosystem services supply in watersheds of the Rio de la Plata Grasslands | ||
| Montag, 25. November 2024 | ||
| Abstract Context Implementing heterogeneous rural landscapes with high agricultural diversity and a substantial proportion of natural habitats has been proposed to ensure food production while reducing negative impacts on ecosystem services. However, evidence of an increased supply of ecosystem services (ES) in more heterogeneous landscapes remains limited, with no consensus... | ||
| Correction to: Scale of effect of landscape patterns on resource selection by bobcats (Lynx rufus) in a multi‑use rangeland system | ||
| Samstag, 23. November 2024 | ||
| A temporal gradient approach reveals similar infrastructure composition but marked density differences along the gradient in new and old built-up areas | ||
| Donnerstag, 21. November 2024 | ||
| Abstract Context To understand the impacts of environmental and socioeconomic changes on the sustainability of urban and rural landscapes, it is essential to quantify the landscape patterns along the urban-rural continuum. However, current characterizations of urbanization often rely on impervious surface patterns, overlooking the intensity and types of human activities within urban areas... | ||
| Landscape forest cover and regional context shape the conservation value of shaded cocoa agroforests for bees and social wasps | ||
| Mittwoch, 20. November 2024 | ||
| Abstract Context The expansion of agricultural lands threatens biodiversity maintenance across the tropics. Although some agroforestry systems may be biodiversity-friendly, their conservation value likely depends on the landscape and regional contexts in which they are embedded—a poorly tested hypothesis. Objectives We assessed the... | ||
| Forest plant invasions in the eastern United States: evidence of invasion debt in the wildland-urban interface | ||
| Mittwoch, 20. November 2024 | ||
| Abstract Context Non-native invasive plants are a growing threat to forests. Meanwhile, the amount of forest within the wildland-urban interface (WUI) is increasing, with housing-associated disturbances enabling the spread of non-native plants. Objectives We tested whether (1) WUI or non-WUI forests are more invaded, (2) WUI intermix forests... | ||
| Detrimental effects of urbanisation on animal assemblages and a key ecological function persist across ecosystems | ||
| Dienstag, 19. November 2024 | ||
| Abstract Context Urbanisation is pervasive across landscapes and seascapes and leads to the loss, degradation and fragmentation of many natural ecosystems and this has widespread consequences for animals and the ecological functions they support. While the impacts of urbanisation are understood for many individual coastal ecosystems in isolation, it is unclear how these impacts influence animal assemblages and ecological... | ||
| Mapping the luminous intrusion: a nationwide multidecadal emerging bivariate cluster analysis of bat habitat’s exposure likelihood to nighttime light | ||
| Dienstag, 19. November 2024 | ||
| Abstract Context Artificial nighttime lights can adversely impact animal behavior, particularly in nocturnal species. Evidence shows that bats can become inactive due to night lights and may avoid trees bathed in such light, consequently decreasing nocturnal pollination frequency. Although numerous biological studies have been conducted to understand the alteration in bat behavior due to artificial night lights, mapping the... | ||
| Landscape contexts shape the effects of local factors on the predation of artificial bird nests in cocoa agroforests | ||
| Dienstag, 19. November 2024 | ||
| Abstract Context Nest predation represents the pivotal threat to bird reproduction in disturbed environments.
