Journal of Ecology, Volume 113, Issue 1, Page 140-154, January 2025.The authors explored how insularity influences herbivory in oaks across island–mainland sites. By experimentally excluding vertebrate predators (e.g. birds, bats) and measuring leaf traits (e.g. phenolics, specific leaf area, nutrients), they provide insights into the mechanisms driving island–mainland herbivory patterns.

Latitudinal Variation in the Timing of Nest Predator Activity Is Habitat Specific
Global Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 34, Issue 1, January 2025.ABSTRACT Aim The goal of this work was to investigate whether the community of avian nest predators shifts from nocturnal to diurnal with changes in latitude. This hypothesis was formulated 70 years ago, under the rationale that longer day length during the bird breeding season at high latitudes increases opportunities for visual predators.
