Beetle assemblage distribution along edge–forest gradient in a managed oak forest
Agricultural and Forest Entomology, Volume 26, Issue 4, Page 496-507, November 2024.Forest ecotone hosted the highest diversity of trophic groups of beetles. Xylophagous, saproxylophagous and pollenophagous beetles exhibited positive association with the shelterwood strip system. According to the fourth‐corner analysis, phytophagous beetles were positively associated with the closed forest, whereas phloephagous beetles were positively

Short‐term vegetation shifts in an alpine grassland under current and simulated climate change
Journal of Vegetation Science, Volume 35, Issue 6, November/December 2024.We carried out a field experiment in an alpine grassland where increased temperature and/or reduced precipitation were simulated during summer. We investigated community‐ and species‐level changes in cover over a 5‐year period to assess impacts of current and simulated climate change.
