Functional and phylogenetic beta diversity response of nocturnal moth assemblages to land‐use intensity in grasslands and forests

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Land‐use intensification is filtering for species, able to cope with anthropogenic landscapes. This was assumed to result in functionally and phylogenetically homogenous communities, but a recent meta‐analysis could not confirm a consistent homogenization response to human pressure and raises open questions.

Historical anthropogenic stressors affect bird ecology and feather development in neotropical forests

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Fragmentation and habitat loss driven by agricultural expansion have significantly affected bird ecology. Additionally, the growing use of agrochemicals impacts ecosystems and avian communities. Tools such as isotopic analysis provide reliable proxies for assessing organisms' habitat use and diet, and can also reflect environmental alterations, such as

Policy Capacity Under Decentralization: Kindergarten Education Reforms in the Philippines

open access: yesPublic Administration and Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The paper examines the relationship between policy capacity and policy effectiveness in decentralized governance setups. It challenges the conventional view that policy functions should only be decentralized when requisite capacities already exist at lower levels of government. Instead, the paper proposes that capacity can follow function ‐ as
