Mixed forests with native species mitigate impacts of introduced Douglas fir on soil decomposers (Collembola). [PDF]
Ecol ApplAbstract Forest ecosystem management requires the conservation of associated biodiversity. Enriching native forests with economically valuable conifer species provides economic gains and meets the increasing societal demand for timber but may threaten biodiversity.

Molecular assessment of food web dynamics identifies critical periods for managing resilience in biological pest control. [PDF]
Ecol ApplAbstract Food webs are not static over time, but our knowledge of their dynamics is extremely scarce due to methodological challenges. In turn, this significantly limits our ability to mechanistically understand the temporal changes that trophic networks annually undergo.
