Trade‐offs between soil biodiversity and agricultural expansion: Evidence from litter decomposition dynamics in Madagascar

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Home‐Field Advantage (HFA) theory—positing that litter decomposes faster at its site of origin—allows us to disentangle the respective influences of litter quality, soil biota composition, and microclimate on shifts in litter decomposition following land use conversion.

Repeated trends in altitudinal gradients of diversity: How habitat filtering and biotic interactions structure ecological communities

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
This study reveals that tropical butterfly communities show remarkably consistent elevational patterns of diversity and phylogenetic structure across regions with contrasting evolutionary histories, demonstrating how regional species pools and local ecological factors jointly shape biodiversity along altitudinal gradients.

Developing Workforce Capability in the Context of HR Ecosystem Learning

open access: yesHuman Resource Management Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT For many organizations, developing workforce capabilities is central as it involves refining critical human resource processes such as upskilling or the acquisition of new profiles. These processes are becoming increasingly complex to manage as organizations collaborate within larger work ecosystems. Surprisingly, little research has addressed

Species Distribution Models Reveal the Resilience of Protected Areas for Conserving an Endemic Amazonian Canid

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, EarlyView.
This graphical abstract illustrates the impacts of climate change on the distribution of the Amazon‐endemic canid Atelocynus microtis, highlighting projected habitat loss under future scenarios (SSP2–4.5 and SSP5–8.5). Despite substantial reductions in suitable habitat, a significant proportion remains within Protected Areas, emphasizing their critical

Hidden Losses: Assessing the Risk of Coextinction Among Ectoparasitic Flies and Their Bat Host Species in Brazil

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, EarlyView.
The potential impact of bat species extinction on the number of their ectoparasitic fly species, based on interaction data for Brazil. As bat host species are removed over time, more connected species (green) would experience steeper declines and lead to greater ectoparasite losses when compared to a random extinction model (gray).
