Environmental filtering and community delineation in the streambed ecotone. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2018 AbstractA current controversy in ecology is whether biological communities are discrete biological entities or simply study units created for convenience; a debate that becomes even more heated when delimiting communities along ecotones. Here, we report an interdisciplinary study designed to address the interplay between environmental drivers and ...

Environmental filtering of life-history trait diversity in urban populations of Arabidopsis thaliana
bioRxiv, 2023 The challenges to which plants are exposed in urban environments represent, in miniature, the challenges plants face as a result of global environmental change.

Ecosphere, 2021 Evaluating the relative importance of deterministic and stochastic processes underlying taxonomic and functional beta diversity is crucial in community ecology, because it can reveal the dominant processes of community assembly.

Ecological Applications, 2022 Agricultural expansion and intensification are major drivers of global change. Quantifying the importance of different processes governing the assembly of local communities in agroecosystems is essential to guide the conservation effort allocated to ...

[Translated article] Environmental Impact of UV Filters
Actas Dermo-Sifiliográficas, 2022 UV filters are used daily by millions of people. Not all of these filters, however, are 100% biodegradable, and many wastewater treatments plants are ill-equipped to filter them properly. As a result, UV filters are increasingly reaching the environment.

Do large‐scale associations in birds imply biotic interactions or environmental filtering?
Journal of Biogeography, 2022 There has been a wide interest in the effect of biotic interactions on species' occurrences and abundances at large spatial scales, coupled with a vast development of the statistical methods to study them.

Arctic Science, 2021 We quantified benthic diatom diversity in streams in the Miellajokka catchment, about 200 km north of the Arctic circle in Sweden. Beta diversity among sites was related to local-scale environmental heterogeneity (occurring on the order of 1 km or less),
