Agriculture is a major driver of global environmental change. Restorative practices like agroforestry, that integrate native and non-native, culturally important plants while mimicking the structure and function of native forests have the potential to increase biodiversity and e…
Measuring the impact of physical disturbance on macrofaunal communities and sediment composition is important given the increased demand for the exploitation and disturbance of marine ecosystems. The aim of the present investigation was to provide a comprehensive study about the…
Forest health is jeopardized worldwide, as human-caused climate change continues to generate high rates of global tree mortality driven by more severe and frequent droughts. As temperatures rise and unpredictable precipitation patterns prevail, tree species located within arid a…
The global extent of tropical dry forests has rapidly diminished in recent decades due to a variety of threats, largely from human activity. Efforts to restore these forests require understanding of the various modes of regeneration and how they are impacted across a range of di…
More than a century after they emerged as central themes in ecology, community assembly and species coexistence remain rich areas of inquiry. Recent advances in coexistence theory and the development of new and powerful quantitative techniques have offered new insights into the …
