Filtering Effect of Large Rivers on Primate Distribution in the Brazilian Amazonia
Over a century after Wallace’s proposition of the riverine barrier hypothesis, the role of rivers in the diversification of species remains a matter of interest in Amazon biogeography.

Species richness-environment relationships of European arthropods at two spatial grains : habitats and countries [PDF]
We study how species richness of arthropods relates to theories concerning net primary productivity, ambient energy, water-energy dynamics and spatial environmental heterogeneity.

Two of the principal responses of species to recent climate change have been changes in range and abundance, leading to a global reshuffling of the geographic distribution of species.

Linking global turnover of species and environments [PDF]
Patterns of species turnover are central to the geography of biodiversity and resulting challenges for conservation, but at broad scales remain relatively little understood. Here, we take a first spatially-explicitly and global perspective to link the spatial turnover of species and environments.

Regional species richness determines local species turnover in ferns [PDF]
The question of which factors determine the geographical change in species composition and abundance (turnover and β diversity) has typically been studied at a single scale, so that, e.g., regional-scale factors are used to explain regional turnover. But cross-scale effects are also important to understand species turnover and the spatial distribution ...

Thermokarst lakes are forming from permafrost thaw and are severely affected by accelerating climate change. Sediment and water in these lakes are distinct habitats but closely connected. However, our understanding of the differences and linkages between

The declines of heterogeneity and stability in diatom communities are associated with human activity
Anthropogenic forcing caused the biodiversity loss and stability decline of communities. There is still controversy over whether the decline in biodiversity will lead to a decrease in community stability.

Understanding drivers of antagonistic interactions across temporal and spatial scales is important for predicting community structure. In particular, studies examining spatial variation in ecological networks are critical for anticipating community ...

Species turnover is fundamental for understanding the mechanisms that influence large-scale species richness patterns. However, few studies have described and interpreted large-scale spatial variation in plant species turnover, and the causes of this ...

Differential temporal beta‐diversity patterns of native and non‐native arthropod species in a fragmented native forest landscape [PDF]
An important factor that hinders the management of non‐native species is a general lack of information regarding the biogeography of non‐natives, and, in particular, their rates of turnover.
