Changing patterns of colonisation and persistence during the wolf recolonisation of the human‐dominated Italian alpine region

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Dynamic occupancy models are fundamental for understanding complex species recolonisation processes, as they allow the assessment of both colonisation and persistence probabilities over time. Using a dynamic occupancy model and a large‐scale multi‐year dataset on wolf presence collected in the Italian alpine region between 2014 and 2020, we analysed ...

Age‐related trends in niche position and specialization in Neotropical vertebrates

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Species' niche positions and breadths within a region's environmental space, measured through ecological niche factor analysis (ENFA) as marginality and specialization, can reflect evolutionary constraints related to lineage age. The ‘internal incumbency' hypothesis predicts that older species, due to competitive preemption, occupy more central niche ...

Remote sensing of grassland with contaminated soil using the spectral red-edge

open access: yes, 2009
In most cases contaminants are concealed in soil and under vegetation and therefore cannot be measured directly by remote sensing. However, soil contaminants were detectedusing the spectral red-edge to indicate vegetation stress caused by the presence ...

A practical guide to species trend detection with unstructured data using local frequency scaling (Frescalo)

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Accurately measuring biodiversity change remains a central challenge in ecology. Beyond the general idea of quantifying temporal species frequency changes, several sampling‐related biases in data collection remain key methodological challenges to consider. Long‐term standardized ecological data are rare, and most available datasets exhibit considerable
