Changes in climate and land use are major threats to pollinating insects, an essential
functional group. Here, we unravel the largely unknown interactive effects of both threats on …

The patterns of successional change of decomposer communities is unique in that resource
availability predictably decreases as decomposition proceeds. Saproxylic (ie deadwood …

Arthropods respond to vegetation in multiple ways since plants provide habitat and food
resources and indicate local abiotic conditions. However, the relative importance of these …

Environmental filters—including those resulting from biotic interactions—play a crucial role
during the assembly of ecological communities. The importance of scale has thereby been …

Forestry in Europe changed the tree species composition and reduced dead-wood amount
and heterogeneity, and therefore negatively affected saproxylic diversity. Efficient …

Understanding community assembly in habitat patches requires an integrative approach,
considering the potential role of local and regional factors and organisms' dispersal abilities …

Abstract Effects of climate change‐induced events on forest ecosystem dynamics of
composition, function and structure call for increased long‐term, interdisciplinary and …

Forest birds respond to a diverse set of environmental factors, including those altered by
forest management intensity, such as resource and habitat availability in the form of food or …

This study investigated the relative influences of environmental, spatial, and historical
factors, including the island‐specific history of land connectivity, on bat assemblages in the …

The diversity and spatial patterns of soil invertebrates are the cornerstones for
understanding their ecological functions, which are crucial to maintaining nutrient cycling …
