Twenty years of dynamic occupancy models: a review of applications and look to the future
Ecography, EarlyView.Since their introduction over 20 years ago, dynamic occupancy models (DOMs) have become a powerful and flexible framework for estimating species occupancy across space and time while accounting for imperfect detection. As their popularity has increased and extensions have further expanded their capabilities, DOMs have been applied to increasingly ...

Multiple stressors in river networks: local and downstream effects on freshwater macroinvertebrates
Ecography, EarlyView.River networks are complex ecosystems characterized by a continuous exchange of material and energy through longitudinal gradients. These ecosystems are threatened by various human‐induced stressors, which frequently co‐occur and may interact in complex ways, potentially triggering cascading effects throughout the river network.

Fishing shapes cetacean population density patterns in the Mediterranean basin
Ecography, EarlyView.Human impacts are forcing species towards marginal and suboptimal portions of their historical ranges. Cetaceans are now under protection, but are still threatened by fishing activities, which reduce fish stocks, alter their feeding behavior, and can cause mortality due to bycatch.

Extinct Pleistocene carnivores were diurnal and highly active
Ecography, EarlyView.There is much contention over the causes and correlates of megafaunal extinctions at the end of the Pleistocene. A major role for human impact such as hunting has been discussed widely. If correct, the overkill hypothesis explains not only why large mammals in general were highly prone to extinction but suggests that extinction may have been selective ...

Ecography, EarlyView.Tree‐related microhabitats (TreMs), such as water‐filled tree holes (WTHs), are important structures for forest biodiversity, providing habitats for many specialized species, which are however impaired by the intensive forest management of the past. Strategies to maintain and promote TreMs in managed forests, e.g.
