Uncovering the underlying mechanisms that contribute to the structure of ecological networks is crucial and presents a significant challenge. It has been reported that phylogenetically related species tend to have similar characteristics wi...

Habitat degradation and overexploitation are key drivers of biodiversity loss globally. Negative, human-driven changes in habitat quality, species abundance, and community composition are well-documented across systems. While it is understo...
Intraguild predation in sympatric seals and the effect on a declining population [0.03%]

Evidence of intraguild predation (IGP) is found across taxonomic groups but varies in its prevalence within predator populations. The effects of IGP can be similar to traditional predation, but when exploited by few, specialist predators th...

Understanding how prey selection relates to food availability and the environment is fundamental to conserving wildlife populations, especially in relation to anthropogenic factors. Most assessments of diet consider the abundance of prey, b...

Highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) is a contagious viral disease that has led to the culling of huge amounts of poultry as well as the mortality of countless wild birds. The recent panzootic that began in 2021 has been particularly no...

Latitude and elevation are the most commonly studied drivers of large-scale variation in the phenology of life-history events. However, these coarse gradients cannot reliably predict observed spatial variation in phenology. Although it is l...
Resource suitability drives low use of avian-excavated tree cavities: A multi-state occupancy dynamics approach [0.03%]
资源适用性决定了人们对由鸟类挖掘的树洞的利用率较低——一种多状态占域动态方法研究

Avian tree-cavity excavators are widely held to maintain diversity of forest vertebrate faunas through the facilitation of nesting resources, and yet in many systems they are absent or redundant. Why do avian excavators sometimes supply onl...
