Forests are critically important to global pollinator diversity and enhance pollination in adjacent crops
Although the importance of natural habitats to pollinator diversity is widely recognized, the
value of forests to pollinating insects has been largely overlooked in many parts of the world …

Urban forest invertebrates: how they shape and respond to the urban environment
Invertebrates comprise the most diversified animal group on Earth. Due to their long
evolutionary history and small size, invertebrates occupy a remarkable range of ecological …

Early spring orchard pollinators spill over from resource‐rich adjacent forest patches
KR Urban‐Mead, M Van Dyke, P Muñiz… - Journal of Applied …, 2023 - Wiley Online Library
Pollinator communities are more abundant and diverse in agricultural matrices with more
natural habitat, although the reasons for these correlations remain unclear. It is possible that …

Bee diversity decreases rapidly with time since harvest in intensively managed conifer forests
Despite widespread concerns about the anthropogenic drivers of global pollinator declines,
little information is available about the impacts of land management practices on wild bees …

Ecological patterns and processes in the vertical dimension of terrestrial ecosystems
Climatic gradients such as latitude and elevation are considered primary drivers of global
biogeography. Yet, alongside these macro‐gradients, the vertical space and structure …

Canopy sampling reveals hidden potential value of woodland trees for wild bee assemblages
G Allen, RG Davies - Insect Conservation and Diversity, 2023 - Wiley Online Library
Woodlands can play an important role in supporting bee abundance and diversity in
agricultural landscapes. However, in temperate‐region studies, the canopy is rarely …

Vertical stratification of beetles in deciduous forest communities in the Centre of European Russia
AB Ruchin, LV Egorov - Diversity, 2021 - mdpi.com
Studies on the vertical distribution of arthropods in temperate forests have revealed the
uneven vertical distribution of communities. Many factors influence these patterns …

Climate change alters temperate forest canopies and indirectly reshapes arthropod communities
Global change challenges the adaptive potential of forests. Large-scale alterations of forest
canopies have been reported across Europe, and further modifications are expected in …

Wild bee response to forest management varies seasonally and is mediated by resource availability
In many temperate, deciduous forests, long-term management suppression has led to
mesophication (cool, damp, and shaded conditions), resulting in habitat with homogenous …
