Abstract Managing ecologically harmful plant species requires an understanding of the impacts of complex spatial and temporal disturbances on ecological communities. Actions aimed at controlling non‐native plants can have dynamic effects on patterns of succession, with lag effects and trade‐offs possible.

Environmental context alters plant–soil feedback effects on plant coexistence
Abstract Plant–soil feedbacks are thought to mediate outcomes of plant competition through microbially driven positive or negative feedback loops. Plant–microbe interactions are known to depend on the underlying environmental context, yet most efforts to understand how plant–soil feedbacks mediate species coexistence have not considered these context ...

Field experiments on the effects of fire on parasite transmission to amphibian hosts
Abstract The emergence of infectious diseases is often associated with changes to host–pathogen ecology, and wildfires are known to profoundly modify the ecology of terrestrial and freshwater ecosystems. Nevertheless, few studies have employed manipulative experiments to quantify the effects of fire on infections across parasite species.

Integrating climate change, biological invasions, and infectious wildlife diseases
Climate change is likely to affect infectious diseases that are facilitated by biological invasions, with repercussions for wildlife conservation and zoonotic risks. Current invasion management and policy are underprepared for the future risks associated with such invasion‐related wildlife diseases. By considering evidence from bioclimatology, invasion
