Integrating adult occurrence and reproduction data to identify conservation measures for amphibians. [PDF]

Conserv Biol
Abstract Monitoring programs are pivotal to establishing sound management. Due to economic, logistic, and time limitations, monitoring programs often overlook differences among life‐history stages. However, species occurrence does not necessarily mean population viability, and it is unclear to what extent monitoring programs that do not consider ...

Spatiotemporal Dynamics of Non-Ecological Speciation in Rubyspot Damselflies (Hetaerina spp.). [PDF]

Mol Ecol
ABSTRACT Non‐ecological speciation is a common mode of speciation, which occurs when allopatric lineages diverge in the absence of pronounced ecological differences. Yet, relative to other speciation mechanisms, non‐ecological speciation remains understudied.

Functional diversity of experimental annual plant assemblages drives plant responses to biological soil crusts in gypsum systems

Functional Ecology, Volume 37, Issue 3, Page 488-503, March 2023., 2023
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Biological soil crusts (BSC) are complex biotic aggregates comprised of lichens, cyanobacteria, algae and other micro‐organism that are known to differently affect plant development along life cycle by selecting plant functional traits based on species‐specific effects.

Population dynamics of recovering apex predators: Golden eagles in a Mediterranean landscape

Journal of Zoology, Volume 319, Issue 2, Page 99-111, February 2023., 2023
Density‐dependence, resource availability and human pressure at territorial level drive population dynamics in a recovering apex‐predator population. Abstract Apex predators play a critical role in shaping the biological and functional diversity of ecosystems.

Standardised empirical dispersal kernels emphasise the pervasiveness of long‐distance dispersal in European birds

Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 92, Issue 1, Page 158-170, January 2023., 2023
Introducing a statistical framework to estimate standardised dispersal kernels from biased data. The authors found strong evidence that long‐distance dispersal is common among European breeding bird species and across life stages. Their dispersal estimates for 234 bird species can guide selecting appropriate dispersal kernels in range expansion studies

Short‐distance nocturnal migration in an island endemic bustard

Ibis, Volume 164, Issue 4, Page 1145-1159, October 2022., 2022
Migratory birds typically fly long distances in response to large‐scale seasonal climate variation. However, most migratory species are partial migrants, and some fly only short distances, for example to take advantage of suitable feeding conditions during the non‐breeding season.

The observed pattern and hidden process of female reproductive trajectories across the life span in a non‐human primate

Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 90, Issue 12, Page 2901-2914, December 2021., 2021
With a diminishing number of individuals with age, studying the pattern of reproductive ageing has been difficult especially in long‐lived species. The authors characterize the entire reproductive trajectory from 673 free‐ranging female rhesus macaques of Cayo Santiago, and provide clear evidence for both reproductive senescence and age‐independent ...
