Facilitation influences when trees grow, but not growth rate in a dry temperate forest
Functional Ecology, EarlyView.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Accurately predicting the role of forests in the global carbon cycle requires a detailed understanding of the factors mediating the timing and magnitude of radial stem growth. While weather conditions and topo‐edaphic factors play a critical role in mediating short‐term

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.Using a unique 35‐year dataset, this study shows that domestic livestock do not facilitate wild large herbivores as predicted by the grazing optimization hypothesis. Instead, competition caused avoidance of cattle by elk which intensified under drought, and highlights how climate change influences interactions among domestic and wild large herbivores ...

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.Anthropogenic disturbances associated with mineral extraction influenced space use and activity patterns in grizzly bears, and to a much lesser extent in black bears, in a subarctic ecosystem, signalling an asymmetric response. Abstract Niche partitioning is an evolutionary process that allows the coexistence of multiple species in a landscape. However,

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.We study that browsing by wapiti reduces the growth of saplings, and it develop chemical defenses to prevent themselves browsed again. These results reduce our concern about wapiti browse T. cuspidate saplings, and provide basic data for the study of the interaction between them, and also provide theoretical basis for the population restoration and ...
