The nonnative hemlock woolly adelgid is steadily killing eastern hemlock trees in many parts
of eastern North America. We summarize impacts of the adelgid on these forest foundation …

Biotic interactions are widely recognised as the backbone of ecological communities, but
how best to study them is a subject of intense debate, especially at macro‐ecological scales …

Aim Separating the biotic and abiotic factors controlling species distributions has been a
long‐standing challenge in ecology and biogeography. Joint species distribution models …

Within the context of species distribution models, scrutiny arises from the choice of
meaningful environmental predictors. Thermal conditions are not the sole driver, but are the …

Abstracts Aim The scales of space and time over which biotic interactions influence
distribution patterns remain an area of debate. Biotic interactions may be particularly …

Species distributions, abundance, and interactions have always been influenced by human
activity and are currently experiencing rapid change. Biodiversity benchmark surveys …

Trade-offs and synergies (or negative and positive associations) between ecosystem
services are at the heart of many land-use conflicts. Substantial effort has been focused on …

The increase in the frequency and severity of water crises around the world necessitates
maintaining or augmenting investments in the hydrologic sciences, including in a trained …

Competitive interactions between distantly related clades could cause complementary
diversity patterns of these clades over large spatial scales. One such example might be ants …

A groundbreaking approach to scale and scaling in ecological theory and practice Scale is
one of the most important concepts in ecology, yet researchers often find it difficult to find …
