How much species' biodiversity could area targets protect globally?

Ecography, EarlyView.
Protection targets for addressing biodiversity loss include protecting at least 30% of the land and ocean in ecologically representative areas, but do not specify how many or what proportion of species should be protected from extinction. Here, a systematic analysis of 77 880 marine, freshwater and terrestrial species indicates that all species could ...

Does biotic resistance govern forest invasions by bark and ambrosia beetles?

Ecography, EarlyView.
The theory of biotic resistance states that community diversity promotes resistance to biological invasions. This theory has been widely explored for its ability to explain variation in habitat invasibility to non‐native plant species and while the theory holds in some systems, it does not in others.

Long‐term benefits of burns for large mammal habitat undermined by large, severe fires in the American West

Ecography, EarlyView.
Escalating wildfire frequency and severity are altering wildland habitats worldwide. Yet investigations into fire impacts on wildlife habitat rarely extend to the macroecological scales relevant to species conservation and global change processes. We evaluate the effects of wildfire on habitat quality and selection by large mammals spanning three ...

Physiology–microhabitat matching may help organisms cope with the thermal and hydric challenges under climate change: a tale of two lizards

Ecography, EarlyView.
Climate change is significantly affecting biodiversity, and organisms that depend on external temperature – such as ectotherms – are particularly vulnerable to these effects. Microhabitats provide refuge for species, thereby reducing exposure to thermal and hydric stress under climate change.
