Patterns of aerial arthropod biomass and diversity from three regions of boreal Alaska
Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 17, Issue 5, Page 826-855, September 2024.We documented aerial arthropod biomass and diversity over 4 years in three regions in boreal Alaska—two in central Alaska and one in southcentral Alaska. Traps yielded 115,078 specimens of 15 orders and 692 unique taxa. Mean aerial arthropod biomass was more than three times higher in Fairbanks than in Anchorage.

Ecology, Volume 105, Issue 1, January 2024.Abstract In the midst of an ongoing biodiversity crisis, much research has focused on species losses and their impacts on ecosystem functioning. The functional consequences (ecosystem response) of shifts in communities are shaped not only by changes in species richness, but also by compositional shifts that result from species losses and gains. Species
