A globally consistent scaling relationship reveals stabilizing effects of dominant species in plant communities

Ecography, EarlyView.
Despite extensive research, stabilizing mechanisms in ecosystems remain uncertain. Taylor's power law (TPL) is a pervasive ecological pattern that describes how variance scales with mean abundance (σ2 = aμᵇ). While TPL has been widely studied within populations, its role across species within communities and its implications for stability remain ...

The macroecology of immunity: predominant influence of climate on invertebrate immune response

Ecography, EarlyView.
The immune system is the primary defense against parasites. With the ever‐increasing rate of disease, epidemiologic models considering geographic variation in immune responses could prove useful. Despite increasing interest in the macroecology of parasitism and infectious diseases, we know little about the macroecology of immune responses (i.e ...

Environmental heterogeneity and spatial variation mediates plant diversity and ecosystem stability in mountain ecosystems of the Mediterranean Andes

Ecography, EarlyView.
Globally, mountains are highly diverse ecosystems that serve as natural laboratories for testing ecological theories, while providing vital ecosystem services. Their biodiversity arises from the interaction between elevational gradients and topographic complexity, which generate strong variation in environmental conditions across short spatial scales ...

Perceived Economic Inequality and Progressive Taxation: The Moderator Role of Upward Mobility Beliefs

European Journal of Social Psychology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Attitudes toward redistribution have been widely studied, yet individuals respond differently to specific policies. Progressive taxation is one of the most effective mechanisms for reducing inequality and fostering more egalitarian societies, but little is known about the psychological factors shaping support for it.

Contextual Effects of National Identity on Willingness to Fight: A Multilevel Analysis Using the World Values Survey

European Journal of Social Psychology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT National identity is widely assumed to be an important basis for individuals’ willingness to fight for their country; yet, most previous research has focused on individual‐level identity, with limited attention to collective‐level processes.
