Shifts in phenology influence synchrony of flowering plants and their pollinators along an elevation gradient

Oikos, EarlyView.
Climatic conditions alter the phenology of species, which may threaten the synchrony of biotic interactions. However, how phenological synchrony across entire communities of plants and their pollinators responds to varying environmental conditions remains poorly understood.

Bottom–up and top–down drivers influence urbanization effects on insect herbivory in oaks

Oikos, EarlyView.
Urban forests provide essential ecosystem services, including pest control, biodiversity conservation, and human health benefits. Herbivory is a widespread biotic interaction that shapes ecosystem functions, such as primary productivity and soil fertility, which underpin these services.

Inconsistent effects of P enrichment and predator presence on food‐web dynamics in a bromeliad system

Oikos, EarlyView.
Food webs consist of trophic interactions of variable strength. However, it remains challenging to predict how changes in environmental conditions, such as nutrient enrichment, can affect these interactions. In this paper, we propose to integrate food web theory with ecological stoichiometry, which predicts how elemental ratios affect trophic ...

Contrasting effects of temperature across trophic levels in geothermally warmed soil food webs

Oikos, EarlyView.
Global warming is altering the structure and dynamics of ecological communities, with significant consequences for soil food webs. Rising temperatures are expected to accelerate metabolic rates in organisms, potentially altering species interactions, and the structure and energetics of food webs.

Large, rugged and remote: The challenge of wolf–livestock coexistence on federal lands in the American West

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract The expansion of grey wolves (Canis lupus) across the western United States, including on public lands used for extensive livestock grazing, requires tools and techniques for reducing wolf–livestock conflict and supporting coexistence. We examined approaches used on forested lands managed by the U.S.
