Based on community data and the space‐for‐time‐substitution (SFTS) approach, this study shows that both taxonomic and phylogenetic diversity follow a cosine pattern during succession, with PD peaking earlier than TD. Community stability increases as niche differentiation strengthens, with competitive exclusion dominating early and late stages, and ...

Mountains are home to steep elevational gradients in environmental factors, biodiversity and ecosystem functionality. Though these gradients are tightly connected, little is known about the relative contribution of environmental and biotic factors in driving elevational changes in ecosystem functionality.

Abstract Large old trees are important ecological entities in human settlements, providing cultural values and ecological services that are threatened by current and future changes in global climate, land use and disturbance regimes. Some studies suggest incorporating social and cultural significance into the conservation of large old trees.

Prey capture and meat-eating by the wild colobus monkey _Rhinopithecus bieti_ in Yunnan, China [PDF]
If it is true that extant primates evolved from an insectivorous ancestor, then primate entomophagy would be a primitive trait. Many taxa, however, have undergone a dietary shift from entomophagy to phytophagy, evolving a specialised gut and dentition ...
