Farmland abandonment and season drive scavenging dynamics in livestock‐rewilded landscapes
Abstract Farmland abandonment occurs commonly across European mountain regions, which causes triggering of habitat encroachment through shrub regeneration and natural afforestation. However, its impact on vertebrate scavenger communities and ecological processes, such as the removal of small carcasses remains poorly understood.

Landscape and crop diversity contributes to greater yield stability
These findings underscore the importance of promoting crop diversity and maintaining heterogeneous agricultural landscapes, particularly in pollinator‐dependent crops. Promoting diverse agricultural landscapes with balanced heterogeneity can enhance the resilience of agricultural systems to climate change and contribute to long‐term food security ...

Assessing the Corn Belt as an anthropogenic barrier to migrating landbirds in the United States
Abstract Migrating landbirds adjust their flight and stopover behaviors to efficiently cross inhospitable geographies, such as the Gulf of Mexico and the Sahara Desert. In addition to these natural barriers, birds may increasingly encounter anthropogenic barriers created by large‐scale changes in land use. One such barrier could be the Corn Belt in the

Mangrove Pollinator Functional Diversity Decreases With Patch Size and Landscape Anthropization
This study explores how land use changes impact pollinator diversity in mangrove ecosystems, focusing on the effects of patch size and landscape anthropization on pollinators with different functional traits. Results show that smaller mangrove patches can support higher pollinator abundance, richness, and diversity; however, overall pollinator metrics ...

Abstract The global agrifood system faces significant threats due to rapid and interconnected social‐ecological changes, including climate change, land‐use shifts, demographic changes and emerging diseases. Small‐scale farmers are among the most vulnerable groups to these changes due to their direct dependence on their environment.
