Phylogenetic Structure Shifts Across Life-History Stages in Response to Microtopography and Competition in Subtropical Forests

Plants
This study focuses on a subtropical evergreen broad-leaved forest in China, utilizing a large permanent plot established in the Yaoluoping National Nature Reserve.

Quantifying community keystoneness in metacommunities under disturbance

Oikos, EarlyView.
Understanding how metacommunities respond to natural and anthropogenic disturbances is a key objective in ecology. In this study, we introduce an analytical framework to identify communities whose extirpation triggers stronger (hereafter keystone communities) or weaker (hereafter idle communities) cascading effects on extinction and colonization events

Unapparent trees: escaping enemies in time by being discreet, unpredictable and inaccessible

Oikos, EarlyView.
For half a century, biologists considered trees as particularly apparent to their enemies. But why then do some trees escape herbivorous enemies by bursting buds either too early or too late, leading to phenological mismatch? We hypothesize that such mismatches occur on trees that are unapparent in time – those that burst buds ‘discreetly' (slowly) and

Interspecies synchrony in departure decisions from stopover sites: evidence using a multi‐species capture–recapture model

Oikos, EarlyView.
During migration, migratory bird species often aggregate at the same stopover sites due to geographical features that channel migratory routes (coasts, valleys) or locally abundant food resources (e.g. reedbeds, fruiting bushes). In migration ecology, however, stopover behavior is often studied on a single species, limiting the generality of inferences

Contrasting patterns of land use by resident and migratory bird assemblages in a tropical working landscape

Oikos, EarlyView.
The spatial configuration and management of agricultural and other land‐use practices can affect ecological assemblages. However, the differences in how resident and migratory birds respond to land‐use are remain unclear, hindering our understanding of bird biodiversity responses to land use.
