Limited impacts of simulated soil disturbance by rewilded vertebrates on above‐ and below‐ground biodiversity

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Rewilding with locally extinct terrestrial vertebrates has been a popular conservation initiative over the past few decades. Among the animals used for rewilding are the small‐ to medium‐sized vertebrates that forage in the soil and that have been lost from many ecosystems due to habitat destruction or predation by exotic species.

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.

A timid choice: risk‐taking behavior predicts individualized niche in a varying landscape of safety

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Individual niche specialization predicts a match between an individual's phenotype and environment. Yet, whether animals achieve this match through phenotypic change (niche conformance) or by selecting the environment (niche choice), remains unexplored.

Biomass and abundance trends diverge as the North American avifauna undergoes widespread demographic declines

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Biomass is a fundamental metric in ecology and conservation, widely used to inform questions related to community structure, energetics and function. Despite the ubiquity of biomass in broader ecological research, avian ecology and conservation has been based primarily on measures of abundance.
