Linking human impacts to community processes in terrestrial and freshwater ecosystems
Human impacts such as habitat loss, climate change and biological invasions are radically
altering biodiversity, with greater effects projected into the future. Evidence suggests human …

[HTML][HTML] Interactions between marine megafauna and plastic pollution in Southeast Asia
Southeast (SE) Asia is a highly biodiverse region, yet it is also estimated to cumulatively
contribute a third of the total global marine plastic pollution. This threat is known to have …

The origins of global biodiversity on land, sea and freshwater
C Román‐Palacios, D Moraga‐López… - Ecology letters, 2022 - Wiley Online Library
Many biodiversity studies focus on explaining high tropical species richness, but an equally
dramatic yet understudied pattern involves the divergent richness of land, sea and …

Alternating regimes of shallow and deep-sea diversification explain a species-richness paradox in marine fishes
The deep sea contains a surprising diversity of life, including iconic fish groups such as
anglerfishes and lanternfishes. Still,> 65% of marine teleost fish species are restricted to the …

Speciation rate and the diversity of fishes in freshwaters and the oceans
DL Rabosky - Journal of Biogeography, 2020 - Wiley Online Library
Aim The number of fish taxa that occur exclusively in marine biomes is approximately equal
to the number that occur in freshwater biomes. Both the geographic area and habitable …

Exceptions to the rule: Relative roles of time, diversification rates and regional energy in shaping the inverse latitudinal diversity gradient
Aim Inverse latitudinal diversity gradients (i‐LDGs), whereby regional richness peaks
outside the tropics, have rarely been investigated, and their causes remain unclear. Here …
