Functional divergence drives the prevalence of low‐abundance species in bat assemblages

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Ecological communities are structured by a few common species, while most occur at low abundance. Understanding the drivers of this widespread pattern raises fundamental questions about community assembly rules and is important for applied ecology for identifying ...

Bee community assembly is regulated by functional traits in pristine tropical forest environments

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Understanding the drivers of bee beta diversity across pristine environments in the Amazon is critical for ensuring biodiversity conservation, restoration, sustainable land use planning and economic development.

Belowground effects of ground‐dwelling large herbivores in forest ecosystems

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
This study reviews how ground‐dwelling large herbivores affect forest soil and litter globally. Effects are context‐dependent, vary among species and forest types, and remain poorly studied in tropical forests, highlighting critical gaps in understanding nutrient cycling and ecosystem functioning.

Complex multitrophic species interactions and fitness costs: Intricate consequences of jasmonate and salicylate induced plant defences

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
This study reveals how long‐term activation of jasmonic and salicylic acid signalling reshapes arthropod communities and plant fitness across seasons. By showing that induced defences generate contrasting outcomes and cascading trade‐offs across trophic levels, it challenges the assumption that induced resistance is uniformly beneficial in natural ...

Biodiversidad

open access: yes, 2017
La biodiversidad es la forma corriente de describir la diversidad de vida sobre el planeta: abarca todas las formas de vida y los ecosistemas que éstas integran. El Día Mundial de la Alimentación -aniversario de la fundación de la FAO, el 16 de octubre de 1945- conmemora especialmente esa porción de biodiversidad que nutre a la población y contribuye a

Biodiversidad

open access: yes, 2016
En este artículo se explica el concepto de biodiversidad y sus tres niveles: genético, de especies y de ecosistemas. Se analizan los datos relativos a la diversidad de organismos presentes en Costa Rica y se presentan las causas de esta riqueza. Además, se muestran las fortalezas con las que cuenta el país para proteger su biodiversidad y las amenazas ...

Fine-scale mapping of High Nature Value farmlands: novel approaches to improve the management of rural biodiversity and ecosystem services [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
High Nature Value farmlands (HNVf) are defined as rural lands characterized by high levels of biodiversity and extensive farming practices. These farmlands are also known to provide important ecosystems services, such as food production, pollination ...
