Ecological communities face a variety of environmental and anthropogenic stressors acting
simultaneously. Stressor impacts can combine additively or can interact, causing synergistic …

New technologies for monitoring biodiversity such as environmental (e) DNA, passive
acoustic monitoring, and optical sensors promise to generate automated spatiotemporal …

Revealing the roles of biotic factors in driving community assembly, which is crucial for the
understanding of biodiversity and ecosystem functions, is a fundamental but infrequently …

The global retreat of glaciers is dramatically altering mountain and high-latitude landscapes,
with new ecosystems developing from apparently barren substrates,,–. The study of these …

Biotic interactions are fundamental drivers governing biodiversity locally, yet their effects on
geographical variation in community composition (ie incidence‐based) and community …

Abstract Aim Environmental DNA (eDNA) is increasingly used for analysing and modelling
all‐inclusive biodiversity patterns. However, the reliability of eDNA‐based diversity …

Biotic interactions are widely recognised as the backbone of ecological communities, but
how best to study them is a subject of intense debate, especially at macro‐ecological scales …

A full understanding of the origin and maintenance of β‐diversity patterns in a region
requires exploring the relationships of both taxonomic and phylogenetic β‐diversity (TBD …

Global change is affecting soil biodiversity and functioning across all terrestrial ecosystems.
Still, much is unknown about how soil biodiversity and function will change in the future in …

Classifying organisms has a wide use and a long history in ecology. However, the meaning
of a 'group of organisms' and how to group organisms is still the subject of much theoretical …
