Density dependence and habitat selection affect overwintering abundance of monarch butterflies at regional and site scales in California

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
We analyzed annual overwintering counts in California to understand monarch population fluctuations. Climate and density‐dependent factors explain 64% of annual variability across groves, with density dependence being the primary driver. Within groves, tree characteristics and microclimate significantly influence monarch habitat selection, with ...

The value of saltbush revegetation for biodiversity in a highly fragmented landscape

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Saltbush revegetation provides limited value for faunal biodiversity. Saltbush has the lowest species richness and diversity of ants, spiders, and birds. Remnant habitats continue to provide the most important habitats for native species. Abstract Secondary salinization is a significant global issue affecting up to 1 billion hectares of land, impacting

Integrating ecological feedbacks across scales and levels of organization

Ecography, EarlyView.
In ecosystems, species interact in various ways with other species, and with their local environment. In addition, ecosystems are coupled in space by diverse types of flows. From these links connecting different ecological entities can emerge circular pathways of indirect effects: feedback loops.

Plant Domestication Affects the Oviposition Behavior and Performance of Ganaspis kimorum, a Parasitoid of Drosophila suzukii

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
In this study, we investigated the effects of blueberry domestication on the oviposition behavior and performance of Ganaspis kimorum, a parasitoid of Drosophila suzukii. Domestication of blueberries reduced the oviposition‐searching behavior of the parasitoid but enhanced parasitoid performance, including offspring performance. Additionally, blueberry
