Plant and insect functional traits influence herbivore performance under climate change

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Climate change is expected to disrupt many trophic interactions, including those between insect herbivores and their host plants, which could have detrimental effects at the ecosystem level. However, the response of insect herbivory to climate change can vary widely across species, and an understanding of the mechanisms underlying this variation is ...

Urban‐driven homogenization of aquatic subsidy size structure cascades to riparian predator communities

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
The export of emergent aquatic insects is a critical energy subsidy for terrestrial food webs. While urbanization is known to alter stream communities, its effects on the size structure of these insect subsidies and the subsequent consequences for riparian predators remain poorly understood.

Population recovery of an endangered macaw enhances long‐distance seed dispersal via stomatochory

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Seed dispersal by large, mobile vertebrates plays a key role in shaping plant spatial dynamics and community structure. However, how variation in animal population size influences the magnitude and spatial scale of seed dispersal remains poorly understood.

Using a social‐ecological macrosystems framework to understand how human activities alter ecological synchrony

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Different aspects of ecological systems, biotic or abiotic, often fluctuate in coordinated patterns over space and time. Such high concordance between ecological processes is often referred to as ecological synchrony. Human activities, including and beyond climate change, have the potential to alter ecological synchrony by disrupting or ...
