The primacy of species turnover over intraspecific variation in the environmental filtering of understory ferns [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science
IntroductionQuantifying community-level trait shifts, driven by species turnover and intraspecific trait variation (ITV), is essential for understanding environmental filtering and elucidating community assembly and species coexistence.

Divergence of environmental filtering: rock exposure rate filters reproductive traits whereas slope shape community richness [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science
IntroductionEnvironmental filtering is a core mechanism driving plant functional trait reassembly and community succession. However, it is often treated as a uniform process, and whether distinct abiotic factors act through divergent mechanisms remains ...

Environmental filtering and dispersal limitation jointly shaped the taxonomic and phylogenetic beta diversity of natural forests in southern China [PDF]

Ecology and Evolution, 2021
Aim The mechanisms underlying the maintenance of biodiversity remain to be elucidated. Taxonomic diversity alone remains an unresolved issue, especially in terms of the mechanisms of species co‐existence.

Implicit Rating and Filtering [PDF]

, 1998
Social filtering systems that use explicit ratings require a large number of ratings to remain viable. The effort involved for a user to rate a document may outweigh any benefit received, leading to a shortage of ratings.

Mowing Did Not Alleviate the Negative Effect of Nitrogen Addition on the Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungal Community in a Temperate Meadow Grassland

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
As nitrogen deposition intensifies under global climate change, understanding the responses of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi to nitrogen deposition and the associated mechanisms are critical for terrestrial ecosystems.

Environmental Factors Override Dispersal-Related Factors in Shaping Diatom and Macroinvertebrate Communities Within Stream Networks in China

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2020
Metacommunity theory provides a useful framework to describe the underlying factors (e.g., environmental and dispersal-related factors) influencing community structure.

Spatiotemporal joint species distribution modelling: A basis function approach

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, 2023
We introduce community‐level basis function models (CBFMs) as an approach for spatiotemporal joint distribution modelling. CBFMs can be viewed as related to spatiotemporal latent variable models, where the latent variables are replaced by a set of pre ...

Does Environment Filtering or Seed Limitation Determine Post-fire Forest Recovery Patterns in Boreal Larch Forests?

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2018
Wildfire is a primary natural disturbance in boreal forests, and post-fire vegetation recovery rate influences carbon, water, and energy exchange between the land and atmosphere in the region.

Trait‐based and multi‐scale approach provides insight on responses of freshwater mussels to environmental heterogeneity

Ecosphere, 2023
Our understanding of the factors driving the distribution of metacommunities at different scales can be obscured by high variation in species composition between sites and a lack of fine‐scale distribution data. Trait‐based approaches have long been used
