Ectomycorrhizal community composition and extramatrical hyphal proportion predict soil carbon stocks at the landscape scale

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract While fungal composition has been linked to soil carbon at global scales, these patterns are often difficult to disentangle from broad climatic gradients and species range limits. To address this constraint, we tested which aspects of ectomycorrhizal community structure

Temperate forest heterogeneity decreases local and landscape‐scale spider diversity through habitat filtering despite increasing species turnover

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
In a large‐scale German forest experiment, habitat heterogeneity increased spider turnover but reduced local alpha diversity through habitat filtering. Together, these effects lowered landscape‐scale spider diversity. As such, the study shows whether environmental heterogeneity increases or decreases biodiversity depends on the balance between habitat ...

Warm Spring Weather Alters Calling Phenology of Four Sympatric Early‐Breeding Anurans

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
An unusually warm March in 2024 (“false spring”) followed by freezing temperatures allowed us to assess the impact of a weather event on an amphibian community. The calling activity of all four species was associated with increasing temperature, and the first date of calling was advanced by 11–18 days.

Statistical analyses of ecological multinomial time series to identify environmental drivers and biotic interactions

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Understanding the drivers of change in communities is a major goal of paleoecology and community ecology, but statistical inference from multivariate time series is challenged by relative (rather than absolute) abundance data, observation uncertainty and missing data due to uneven sampling through time.

Population structure of Fagus grandifolia subsp. mexicana in the cloud forest of Hidalgo State, Mexico

open access: yesBotan‪ical Sciences, 2016
The highest densities and largest areas of Fagus grandifolia subsp. mexicana in Mexico grow in the cloud forest of the state of Hidalgo. Although this taxon is endangered, there is little information about its population structure.

Complete elliptic Fourier descriptor normalization and its application in quantitative morphological analysis

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Elliptic Fourier analysis (EFA) is often employed in geometric morphometrics (GM), but the normalization of elliptic Fourier descriptor (EFD) has persistently posed challenges for obtaining unique and comparable results, especially in the application of outline‐based GM methods, which limits the implementation in automated analysis of numerous,

Population estimators or progeny tests: what is the best method to assess null allele frequencies at SSR loci?

open access: yes, 2009
Nuclear SSRs are notorious for having relatively high frequencies of null alleles, i.e. alleles that fail to amplify and are thus recessive and undetected in heterozygotes.

Weekend Overload: Day‐to‐Day Fluctuations of Outdoor Recreation Affect Wild Mammals' Space‐Use in a Popular Forest Reserve Near Florence, Italy

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, EarlyView.
In an urban‐adjacent forested area, we investigated the spatial and temporal distribution of the wild mammal community in relation to day‐to‐day fluctuations of human presence occurring between working days and weekends. We deployed 52 camera‐traps systematically within an EU Natura 2000 area located within the metropolitan area of Florence, central ...
