Species traits mediate terrestrial mammal density responses to human impacts

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Human activities are reshaping ecosystems, but their effects on species population density remain poorly understood. Most studies focus on species presence–absence, thus limiting insight into how anthropogenic pressures affect population density. Emerging evidence suggests that responses of natural populations to human disturbance are highly variable ...

Decoupling environmental suitability from realized recruitment through ontogenetic environmental filtering in a long‐lived Mediterranean palm species

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Long‐lived plants facing anthropogenic disturbance often exhibit recruitment failure despite persistent reproductive adults, generating extinction debt masked by longevity. However, whether adult presence reliably reflects environmental suitability for recruitment remains unclear.

Properties of vertebrate predator–prey networks in the high Arctic

open access: yesEcology and Evolution
Predation is an important ecological process that can significantly impact the maintenance of ecosystem services. In arctic environments, the relative ecological importance of predation is thought to be increasing due to climate change, partly because of

Nanoplastics: Methods, Exposure and Effects on Domestic, Farm and Wild Animals

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nanoplastics (NPs) are synthetic polymer particles ranging in size from 1 nm to 1 μm that have been identified as a major concern for ecosystems and organisms due to their plethora of negative effects. The aim of this review is to provide a comprehensive overview of the knowledge relating to exposure and effects of NPs in domestic (i.e., farm ...

Nonstandard numerical methods for a class of predator-prey models with predator interference

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Differential Equations, 2007
We analyze a class of predator-prey models with Beddington-DeAngelis type functional response. The models incorporate the mutual interference between predators, which stabilizes predator-prey interactions even when only a linear intrinsic growth rate of ...
