Thermoregulation and diurnal roost selection of boreal bats during pre‐hibernation period

open access: yesOikos, Volume 2025, Issue 3, March 2025.
Living in a seasonal environment poses challenges for small mammals, such as bats, reliant on insects as their primary food source. Bats may adeptly navigate these energetic challenges by reducing their metabolism and body temperature, entering a state of torpor.

Movement Ecology of a Coastal Foundation Seagrass Species: Insights From Genetic Data and Oceanographic Modelling

open access: yesDiversity and Distributions, Volume 31, Issue 2, February 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim Seed dispersal plays a key role in shaping the distribution and genetic complexity of seagrass populations and affects their resilience capacity under disturbance. The endemic seagrass Posidonia oceanica is a key component of Mediterranean coastal ecosystems, but knowledge about movement ecology in this species is limited, especially ...

Characterization of a resilient seagrass meadow during a decline period [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Seagrasses are globally threatened ecosystems with essential ecological roles. An important limitation in seagrass conservation efforts is the poor understanding of resilient meadows. The present work studies a meadow, which maintained a large population

Design principles for multi‐species productive grasslands: Quantifying effects of diversity beyond richness

open access: yesJournal of Ecology, Volume 112, Issue 11, Page 2471-2479, November 2024.
We describe approaches that separate plant diversity into its underlying components: species richness, composition and relative abundance. Disentangling these three components facilitates a more nuanced understanding of how diversity can contribute to the design of diversity‐dependent nature‐based solutions.
