Pollinator community composition and pollen resource use in calcareous grasslands under different landscape contexts across Europe

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
In this paper, we show that pronounced differences in pollinator communities exist between grasslands embedded in contrasting agricultural landscape contexts. Opportunistic foraging strategies of most pollinators resulted in large interaction turnover, but these shifts did not translate into major changes in overall network structure, most likely as a ...

From individuals to networks: The role of variation in plant–pollinator communities' responses to global change

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
This paper argues that variation among individuals—not just species differences—can shape the sensitivity, robustness and resilience of plant–pollinator communities under global change. By linking individual traits and interaction structure to network dynamics, it provides a new framework and future research directions for predicting community ...

Functional traits explain responses of Appalachian birds to vertical and horizontal forest structure

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
The study of bird–forest relationships dates back decades, but rarely have the relationships of functional traits to 3D forest structure responses been considered for dozens of species at regional scales. Abstract Species interact with habitat based on their functional traits, but it is unclear how specific traits interact with the multiple components ...

Games and gamification projects in the Australian public sector

Australian Journal of Public Administration, EarlyView.
Abstract This article surveys the arrival of gameful government into Australian public sector practice. Gameful government is a shorthand, descriptive term denoting the interpenetration of (video)games, and design elements and thinking from them, into public sector work.
