Shifts in mosquito diversity and abundance along a gradient from oil palm plantations to conterminous forests in Borneo [0.03%]
沿加里曼丹油棕园到连绵森林的景观变化中蚊虫种类和丰度的变化

Katherine I Young et al.
Deforestation precipitates spillover of enzootic, vector-borne viruses into humans, but specific mechanisms for this effect have rarely been investigated. Expansion of oil palm cultivation is a major driver of deforestation. Here, we demons...
A critical assessment of available ecosystem services data according to the Final Ecosystem Goods and Services framework [0.03%]
基于最终生态系统货物和服务框架的可用生态系统服务数据批判评估

The last decade has seen a proliferation of studies describing the benefits people accrue from natural processes by translation of spatially explicit land use and landcover data to ecosystem service provision. Yet, critical assessment of sy...
Disentangling local, metapopulation, and cross-community sources of stabilization and asynchrony in metacommunities [0.03%]
解开元种群中局部、元种群和跨社区的稳定性和异步性的来源

Matthew Hammond et al.
Asynchronous fluctuations of populations are essential for maintaining stable levels of bio-mass and ecosystem function in landscapes. Yet, understanding the stabilization of metacommunities by asynchrony is complicated by the existence of ...

Breeding colonies of birds represent groups of individuals that associate during one breeding season, at least partially dissociate for the non-breeding season, and may re-associate the next year through collective settlement at another bre...
What can we learn from wildlife sightings during the COVID-19 global shutdown? [0.03%]
在全球新冠疫情封锁期间,我们能从野生动物的出现中学到什么?
Amanda J Zellmer,Eric M Wood,Thilina Surasinghe et al.
Amanda J Zellmer et al.
During the worldwide shutdown in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, many reports emerged of urban wildlife sightings. While these images garnered public interest and declarations of wildlife reclaiming cities, it is unclear whether wildlife...
Coarse particulate organic matter dynamics in ephemeral tributaries of a Central Appalachian stream network [0.03%]
中央阿巴拉契亚溪流网络中短期性支流中粗大颗粒有机物质的动力学研究
Ken M Fritz,Gregory J Pond,Brent R Johnson et al.
Ken M Fritz et al.
Headwater ephemeral tributaries are interfaces between uplands and downstream waters. Terrestrial coarse particulate organic matter (CPOM) is important in fueling aquatic ecosystems; however, the extent to which ephemeral tributaries are fu...
Finding the sweet spot: What levels of larval mortality lead to compensation or overcompensation in adult production? [0.03%]
寻找平衡点:何种程度的幼虫死亡率会导致成体产量的补偿或过度补偿?
Joseph T Neale,Steven A Juliano
Joseph T Neale
Extrinsic mortality impinging on negatively density-dependent populations can result in no change in the number of survivors (compensation) or an increase (overcompensation) by releasing the population from density-dependent effects on surv...
Using a final ecosystem goods and services approach to support policy analysis [0.03%]
采用最终生态系统产品和服务方法支持政策分析
Paramita Sinha,Paul Ringold,George Van Houtven et al.
Paramita Sinha et al.
Evaluating environmental policies requires estimating the impacts of policy-induced changes on ecological and human systems. Drawing connections between biophysical and economic models is complex due to the multidisciplinary nature of the t...
A patchy continuum? Stream processes show varied responses to patch- and continuum-based analyses [0.03%]
片段还是连续体?流动过程对片段和连续体基于分析的反应各不相同
Sean E Collins,Stephen F Matter,Ishi Buffam et al.
Sean E Collins et al.
Many conceptual syntheses in ecology and evolution are undergirded by either a patch- or continuum-based model. Examples include gradualism and punctuated equilibrium in evolution, and edge effects and the theory of island biogeography in e...
Habitat preference of an herbivore shapes the habitat distribution of its host plant [0.03%]
食草动物的生境偏好影响其寄主植物的生境分布
Nicolas M Alexandre,Parris T Humphrey,Andrew D Gloss et al.
Nicolas M Alexandre et al.
Plant distributions can be limited by habitat-biased herbivory, but the proximate causes of such biases are rarely known. Distinguishing plant-centric from herbivore-centric mechanisms driving differential herbivory between habitats is diff...
