The observed architecture of ecological and socio-economic networks differssignificantly
from that of random networks. From a network science standpoint, non-random structural …

Soil microbial communities are fundamental to maintaining key soil processes associated
with litter decomposition, nutrient cycling, and plant productivity and are thus integral to …

Despite evidence of pollinator declines from many regions across the globe, the threat this
poses to plant populations is not clear because plants can often produce seeds without …

Ecological networks are often composed of different subcommunities (often referred to as
modules). Identifying such modules has the potential to develop a better understanding of …

Biodiversity is organised into complex ecological networks of interacting species in local
ecosystems, but our knowledge about the effects of habitat fragmentation on such systems …

Recent climate projections indicate substantial environmental alterations in oceanic island
regions during the 21st century, setting up profound threats to insular floras. Inherent …

ABSTRACT A fundamental goal of ecological research is to understand and model how
processes generate patterns so that if conditions change, changes in the patterns can be …

Vertebrate pollinators are increasingly threatened worldwide, but little is known about the
potential consequences of declining pollinator populations on plants and ecosystems. Here …

Ecological networks have classically been studied at site and landscape scales, yet recent
efforts have been made to collate these data into global repositories. This offers an …

Most tropical plants rely on animals for pollination, thus engaging in complex interaction
networks. Here, we present a global overview of pollination networks and point out research …
