Forest gaps primarily reshape herb layer composition by increasing light availability and shrub layer encroachment. Roe deer influence herb layer community assembly both directly and indirectly via modification of the shrub layer and light availability and thus shifting plant–plant competition.

Abstract An understanding of habitat use and levels of active behaviour is foundational to wildlife behaviour, ecology, conservation and management. These variables are commonly measured by tracking individuals in space and time using biologging. In principle, camera‐trap data also contain information about both activity level and habitat use; however,

ABSTRACT Since its introduction, ash dieback has been a disease affecting ash (Fraxinus excelsior) stands across nearly their entire range. As the disease cannot be contained, various options for mitigating its severity have been explored in numerous studies.

Speciation History Shapes Patterns of Assemblage Species Richness in Birds
Speciation is the ultimate source of biodiversity. However, because most species arise in spatial isolation, how speciation shapes patterns of co‐occurring species richness remains unclear. Here we examine how the legacy of speciation affects contemporary biodiversity patterns via a phylogenetic model and show that this build‐up is remarkably slow and ...
