Integrating large mammalian herbivores into Dynamic Global Vegetation Models: Status and next steps

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Zoogeochemistry, the study of how animals influence elemental cycling within ecosystems, bridges the fields of zoology, ecology and biogeochemistry. Yet, most terrestrial ecosystem models, especially Dynamic Global Vegetation Models (DGVMs), remain largely plant‐centric

Future climate change favours the increase in abundance of smaller, shorter‐lived fish in the northeastern Mediterranean

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract As species distributions shift due to climate change, functional alterations may also occur within marine communities, potentially leading to ecosystem‐wide transformations.

Warming and community context drive rapid plant evolution

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Abiotic and biotic factors are important drivers of plant evolution, but how these factors interact to influence plant evolution in multispecies communities is still poorly understood. We performed experimental evolution exposing Brassica rapa plants to a combination of

Global meta‐analysis reveals urban‐associated behavioural differences among wild populations

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Urbanization drives rapid phenotypic change, yet broad patterns of behavioural responses remain unclear. Using a global phylogenetic meta‐analysis, we show urban populations exhibit increased boldness, aggression, exploration and activity—especially in birds—highlighting consistent behavioural shifts and revealing major taxonomic gaps that limit our ...

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

open access: yesJournal 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 ...
