Global Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 34, Issue 1, January 2025.ABSTRACT Aim Understanding the organisation of the wide variety of ecological interactions is crucial to advancing our understanding and management of real ecosystems. We aimed to compile a ‘complete’ network of tetrapod trophic and non‐trophic interactions for the entire North American boreal forest biome that could be analysed to gain insights into ...

Montado’s ecosystem functions and services: the case study of Alentejo Central – Portugal [PDF]
, 2017 Although the concept of ecosystem services is well defined and centred on human use of natural systems, it is not yet consensual. The ecosystem services connect ecology and economy; they allow to integrate ecology into policies and to bring a monetary ...

Ibis, Volume 167, Issue 1, Page 106-123, January 2025.Bird migration is one of the greatest wildlife spectacles, producing massive global changes in the distributions of birds twice each year. To understand the evolution of this phenomenon, it is important to know the costs of these journeys in terms of the mortality they impose.

A systematic literature review investigating the association between biodiversity and beaver lodges
Mammal Review, Volume 55, Issue 1, January 2025.Bar graph categorised into the animal groups, with each icon representing a species that was recorded interacting with beaver lodges from the final dataset of articles (n = 35). Abstract The positive relationship between biodiversity and beaver‐modified habitats such as ponds, dams, and canals has been demonstrated; however, the association between ...

Shorebird Habitat Use and Nest-site Selection in the Playa Lakes Region [PDF]
, 2005 Wetlands in the Playa Lakes Region (PLR) provide important habitats for wintering waterfowl, cranes, and both migrant and breeding shorebirds. Playa Lakes Region wetlands experience naturally fluctuating hydroperiods but are exposed to anthropogenic ...

Regional evolutionary distinctiveness and endangerment as a means of prioritizing protection of endangered species [PDF]
, 2015 Conservation is costly, and choices must be made about where to best allocate limited resources. I propose a regional evolutionary diversity and endangerment (RED-E) approach to prioritization of endangered species.

Isotopic ordering in eggshells reflects body temperatures and suggests differing thermophysiology in two Cretaceous dinosaurs [PDF]
, 2015 Our understanding of the evolutionary transitions leading to the modern endothermic state of birds and mammals is incomplete, partly because tools available to study the thermophysiology of extinct vertebrates are limited.
