Aim: The latitudinal diversity gradient (LDG) - in which species richness decreases from the equator toward the poles - is among the most fundamental distributional patterns in ecology. Despite the expectation that the di...
Conditional love? Co-occurrence patterns of drought-sensitive species in European grasslands are consistent with the stress-gradient hypothesis [0.03%]

Melinda M J de Jonge et al.
Aim: The stress-gradient hypothesis (SGH) postulates that species interactions shift from negative to positive with increasing abiotic stress. Interactions between species are increasingly being recognized as important dr...

Aim: Soil microbes are essential for maintenance of life-supporting ecosystem services, but projections of how these microbes will be affected by global change scenarios are lacking. Therefore, our aim was to provide proj...
Freshwater insects CONUS: A database of freshwater insect occurrences and traits for the contiguous United States [0.03%]

Laura Twardochleb et al.
Motivation: Freshwater insects comprise 60% of freshwater animal diversity; they are widely used to assess water quality, and they provide prey for numerous freshwater and terrestrial taxa. Our knowledge of the distributi...
Dispersal syndromes drive the formation of biogeographical regions, illustrated by the case of Wallace's Line [0.03%]
DISPERSAL综合征驱动生物地理区域的形成——以华莱士线为例
Alexander E White,Kushal K Dey,Matthew Stephens et al.
Alexander E White et al.
Aim: Biogeographical regions (realms) reflect patterns of co-distributed species (biotas) across space. Their boundaries are set by dispersal barriers and difficulties of establishment in new locations. We extend new meth...

Aim: Simulation models are important tools for quantifying the resilience (i.e., persistence under changed environmental conditions) of forest ecosystems to global change. We synthesized the modelling literature on forest...
Assessing the reliability of predicted plant trait distributions at the global scale [0.03%]
评估全球范围内的预测植物性状分布的可靠性

Coline C F Boonman et al.
Aim: Predictions of plant traits over space and time are increasingly used to improve our understanding of plant community responses to global environmental change. A necessary step forward is to assess the reliability of...
Distinct spread of DNA and RNA viruses among mammals amid prominent role of domestic species [0.03%]
哺乳动物中DNA病毒和RNA病毒的传播分布及家养动物扮演的重要角色
