Quantifying community keystoneness in metacommunities under disturbance

open access: yesOikos, 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
