Changes in community composition and functional diversity of European bats under climate change

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 4, August 2025.
Abstract Climate change is predicted to drive geographical range shifts that will result in changes in species diversity and functional composition and have potential repercussions for ecosystem functioning. However, the effect of these changes on species composition and functional diversity (FD) remains unclear, especially for mammals, specifically ...

Evaluating endophyte‐rich leaves and leaf functional traits for protection of tropical trees against natural enemies

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 39, Issue 2, Page 371-389, February 2025.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Plants use physical barriers and chemical compounds to defend themselves against natural enemies. For instance, tough leaves are considered to be better defended than soft leaves, part of a spectrum of defences defined by functional traits such as leaf chemistry ...

Landscape composition and orchard management effects on bat assemblages and bat foraging activity in apple crops

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2025.
Abstract Bats are acknowledged as suppliers of essential ecosystem services such as insect pest control in agroecosystems. Little is known, however, on how bat assemblages respond to the gradients imposed by anthropogenic landscapes and farming practices and how these environmental effects translate into changes in bat foraging.

Is it all about size? Dismantling the integrated phenotype to understand species coexistence and niche segregation

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 38, Issue 11, Page 2350-2368, November 2024.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Niche segregation is a mechanism by which competition between coexisting species is reduced. The ecological niche is a multidimensional space shaped by the conditions and resources that enable the existence of species.

Subdivisión de paisajes basada en aspectos funcionales de la pampa deprimida

open access: yesSemiárida, 2020
La vegetación es uno de los indicadores más importantes a la hora de evaluar los cambios en los ecosistemas. A menudo, esta información es útil para determinar paisajes homogéneos, esenciales a la hora de planificar un sistema sustentable.

Identifying global conservation priorities for terrestrial vertebrates based on multiple dimensions of biodiversity

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 38, Issue 3, June 2024.
Abstract The Kunming–Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework of the Convention on Biological Diversity calls for an expansion of the current protected areas (PAs) to cover at least 30% of global land and water areas by 2030 (i.e., the 30×30 target). Efficient spatial planning for PA expansion is an urgent need for global conservation practice. A spatial

Alteration of the tree–soil microbial system triggers a feedback loop that boosts holm oak decline

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 38, Issue 2, Page 374-390, February 2024.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract In anthropic savanna ecosystems from the Iberian Peninsula (i.e. dehesa), complex interactions between climate change, pathogen outbreaks and human land use are presumed to be behind the observed increase in holm oak decline.
