High Temporal Beta-Diversity of Pollinators in Early Successional Forests After Windthrow. [PDF]
We described the temporal dynamics of vascular plants and pollinating insects by sampling the same windthrow sites after 3 and 5 years from a major storm event in the Italian Alps. Pollinator communities exhibited high temporal β‐diversity, while the understory plant community changed the least.

Structure of Bee Communities in Marginal Lands of the Puget Sound, USA. [PDF]
We surveyed wild bee communities in marginal lands of the Puget Sound, USA. Bee communities were highly diverse and stable across seasons, but were variable within seasons. ABSTRACT Wild bee communities in urban ecosystems are often challenged by habitat fragmentation and low floral diversity.

ABSTRACT Fire is a major form of environmental disturbance, and in recent years, due to anthropogenic climate change and anthropogenic land management, we are seeing increases in the frequency and intensity of fires. With bees being an important, diverse group of pollinators that is facing declines globally, understanding how they respond to fires is ...
