Forest edges influence more than half of the world's forests and contribute to worldwide
declines in biodiversity and ecosystem functions. However, predicting these declines is …

Climate change and habitat modification both alter thermal environments and species
distributions. However, these drivers of global change are rarely studied together, even …

Habitat change and fragmentation are the primary causes of biodiversity loss worldwide.
Recent decades have seen a surge of funding, published papers and citations in the field as …

Human activities often replace native forests with warmer, modified habitats that represent
novel thermal environments for biodiversity. Reducing biodiversity loss hinges upon …

The establishment of pastures and forestry plantations has increased globally to meet
growing demands for meat and wood products. Pasture and plantation expansion often …

As the area covered by human‐modified environments grows, it is increasingly important to
understand the responses of communities to the novel habitats created, especially for …

Agricultural intensification is responsible for major habitat degradation and is a primary
cause of biodiversity loss. Amphibians are currently facing a global decline induced by …

Anthropogenic habitat disturbance is fundamentally altering patterns of disease
transmission and immunity across the vertebrate tree of life. Most studies linking …

Large expanses of tropical rainforest have been converted into agricultural landscapes
cultivated by smallholder farmers. This is also the case in north‐eastern Madagascar; a …

Context Environmental filtering and limiting similarity have both been hypothesized to
influence patterns of species co-occurrence, but in contrasting ways. While environmental …
