Quantifying community keystoneness in metacommunities under disturbance

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Understanding how metacommunities respond to natural and anthropogenic disturbances is a key objective in ecology. In this study, we introduce an analytical framework to identify communities whose extirpation triggers stronger (hereafter keystone communities) or weaker (hereafter idle communities) cascading effects on extinction and colonization events

Unapparent trees: escaping enemies in time by being discreet, unpredictable and inaccessible

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
For half a century, biologists considered trees as particularly apparent to their enemies. But why then do some trees escape herbivorous enemies by bursting buds either too early or too late, leading to phenological mismatch? We hypothesize that such mismatches occur on trees that are unapparent in time – those that burst buds ‘discreetly' (slowly) and

Roadkill risk in European birds: the role of detection and plumage colouration

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Wildlife–vehicle collisions (WVCs) are a significant cause of mortality among European birds. This poses a threat to the conservation of birds because pervasive human‐related structures, such as road networks, are expected to expand over the continent in the next few decades.

Exploring reversibility and contrasting patterns in temperature–size relationships across spatial and temporal scales using subfossil chironomids

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
The extent to which different magnitudes and directions of temperature fluctuations explain long‐term trends in aquatic invertebrate body size is largely unknown. Using elevational gradients and paleolimnological reconstructions, we tested the hypotheses that the size of subfossil chironomid (non‐biting midges) head capsules (HCs) will covary with ...
