Resolving a heated debate: The utility of prescribed burning as a management tool for biodiversity on lowland heath

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 60, Issue 9, Page 2040-2051, September 2023., 2023
Removing burning from the management programme is likely to reduce heathland condition. Biodiversity is encouraged by a mosaic of management and more mobile species, such as birds, will exploit the resources provided by several management techniques. Including some cutting in a rotational regime is likely to be beneficial although prescribed burning ...

Geology‐based and ecological processes of divergence between and within species of wingless darkling beetles

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, Volume 49, Issue 12, Page 2281-2295, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Aim Discerning the relative role of geographical and ecological factors in promoting diversification is central to our understanding of the origin and maintenance of biodiversity. We explore the roles of geology and ecological tolerance in the diversification of a group of wingless beetles with low dispersal potential.
