Connectivity Benefits Most Woodland Invertebrate Species but Only in Landscapes With Low Woodland Cover

Ecology Letters, Volume 28, Issue 5, May 2025.
Connectivity is widely assumed to benefit biodiversity, but this has not been extensively quantified across multiple taxa and landscapes. Using species occurrence records from citizen science for over 800 broadleaf‐associated species in the UK, we found an overall positive effect of woodland connectivity, despite large between‐species variance.

Epiphyton phenology determines the persistence of submerged macrophytes: Exemplified in temperate shallow lakes

Limnology and Oceanography, Volume 70, Issue 3, Page 764-774, March 2025.
Abstract Submerged macrophytes are key components in many freshwater and marine ecosystems, contributing to ecosystem functions and services. In temperate shallow lakes, spring epiphyton shading can be decisive for submerged macrophyte development, potentially leading to macrophyte collapse and a shift to undesired, turbid conditions. Global change can

Hydrological Connectivity and Local Environment Alternately Drive Spatial Structure of Floodplain Aquatic Community Across Seasons

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 2, February 2025.
Our study shows that the landscape‐scale environmental gradient represented as ecotone and as local environmental factors can alternately determine the spatial structures of the floodplain biota across seasons. The study highlights the understudied yet important linkages of spatial and temporal biotic assemblages and advance understanding of ecology ...
