Hurricanes lead to declines in taxonomic, phylogenetic, and functional richness and shifts in moth community composition

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2025.
Abstract Disturbances play a central role in shaping biodiversity, influencing both community structure and ecosystem function. The responses of biodiversity to disturbance are inherently multidimensional, often leading to shifts in taxonomic composition, functional traits, and evolutionary dynamics within biological communities.

Successional Growth Dynamics of Woody Saplings in Tropical Dry Forest Understory

open access: yesBiotropica, Volume 57, Issue 3, May 2025.
The factors that drive sapling growth in tropical dry forest succession remain unclear. Growth rates are higher in the early stages of succession and then decrease. Light and not water seems to be the main factor limiting sapling growth along succession. The successional guild of species and the taxonomic identity as a Leguminosae were the main factors

Sample coverage affects diversity measures of bird communities along a natural recovery gradient of abandoned agriculture in tropical lowland forests

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 62, Issue 3, Page 480-491, March 2025.
Our results highlight the importance of standardizing biodiversity measures and incorporating beta diversity in biodiversity monitoring. We demonstrate that taxonomic, phylogenetic and functional bird diversity can be high in secondary forests within smallholder agricultural landscapes.

Decoupling of trait and species turnover in fire‐prone Mediterranean plant communities

open access: yesJournal of Ecology, Volume 112, Issue 9, Page 2043-2056, September 2024.
The authors provide evidence that above‐ and below‐ground traits describe different recovery trajectories after fire, with significant effects on the phenotypic redundancy of plant communities. These results encourage the use of multi‐trait approaches to understand how the plant reassembly operates after disturbance, in order to refine ecological ...

Similar climate–growth relationships but divergent drought resilience strategies in coexisting Mediterranean shrubs

open access: yesJournal of Ecology, Volume 112, Issue 8, Page 1804-1817, August 2024.
These results highlight the importance of drought as a driver of growth in Mediterranean scrublands. Growth resilience strategies differed between species with junipers being less resilient to drought than other coexisting shrubs. Further research should investigate how this difference in post‐drought resilience is related to functional traits ...

Recent tree diversity increase in NE Iberian forests following intense management release: A task for animal‐dispersed and drought‐tolerant species

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 61, Issue 5, Page 1029-1040, May 2024.
The main drivers influencing the passive increase in tree species diversity suggest a primary role of diminishing forest exploitation in this recovery process, fine‐tuned by climatic changes. This ecological scenario has particularly favoured animal‐dispersed tree species with higher drought tolerance, which mostly led the diversity increase.
