Lobophora : biotic interactions and diversification

open access: yes
Interactions biologiques et diversification du genre Lobophora L'algue brune Lobophora représente une composante benthique importante au sein des récifs coralliens tropicaux, et a à attirer dès le début des années 80 l'attention des écologistes marins en proliférant de façon remarquable au détriment des coraux. Les écologistes marins ne

Species traits mediate the abundant‐center patterns in ground‐dwelling mammal and bird species in China

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
The abundance center hypothesis (ACH) posits that species abundance peaks at distribution centers; however, empirical support remains inconsistent. This study tested the generality of the ACH and investigated species traits as mediators of abundance–distance relationships.

Linking species distribution models with population abundance to support adaptive fisheries management

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Understanding how environmental variability structures essential fish habitat (EFH) is central to managing keystone populations in dynamic marine ecosystems. Using nearly three decades of standardized survey data (1994–2021) from the Adriatic Sea, we present the first basin‐scale, process‐based framework linking estimated habitat suitability and ...

Inverse sky islands: lowland river valleys drive microbial divergence while high elevations select for convergence in massive mountain ecosystems

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Mountain ecosystems are often interpreted through the lens of the ‘sky island' model, where high‐elevation habitats function as isolated archipelagos. However, this model's applicability to massive, topographically complex mountain ranges where highlands are continuous and lowlands are fragmented remains untested.

Incorporating sampling bias into ENM/SDM permutation tests: new methods and a case study on neotropical ants

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Spatial sampling bias in occurrence data can generate spurious environmental associations in models of species distributions and ecological niches, and can also undermine inferences based on permutation tests made using these models. Geographic randomization tests are often used to generate distributions of expected behavior under the null hypothesis ...

Faster growing and more functionally diverse: global change alters functional trait composition of mountain plant communities in the European Alps

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Understanding how global change reshapes mountain plant communities is essential for predicting biodiversity and ecosystem function in a warming world. Using resurvey data from over 1400 non‐forest vegetation plots across the European Alps, we show that community‐weighted means of key functional traits capturing important dimensions of plant ecological
