Trait-based assessments of climate-change impacts on interacting species
Plant–animal interactions are fundamentally important in ecosystems, but have often been
ignored by studies of climate-change impacts on biodiversity. Here, we present a trait-based …

Habitat amount modulates biodiversity responses to fragmentation
Anthropogenic habitat destruction leads to habitat loss and fragmentation, both of which
interact to determine how biodiversity changes at the landscape level. While the detrimental …

Downsizing of animal communities triggers stronger functional than structural decay in seed-dispersal networks
Downsizing of animal communities due to defaunation is prevalent in many ecosystems. Yet,
we know little about its consequences for ecosystem functions such as seed dispersal. Here …

The Atlantic Forest of South America: Spatiotemporal dynamics of the vegetation and implications for conservation
Abstract The Atlantic Forest in South America (AF) is one of the world's most diverse and
threatened biodiversity hotspots. We present a comprehensive spatiotemporal analysis of 34 …

Landscape structure shapes the diversity of plant reproductive traits in agricultural landscapes in the Brazilian Cerrado
The replacement of native vegetation by crops and pasturelands compromises the functional
diversity of plants and negatively influence ecosystem functions such as pollination and …

Merging theory and experiments to predict and understand coextinctions
In an era of mass extinction, predicting the consequences of species loss has become a
priority for ecologists. Extinction of one species can trigger the loss of dependent species …

Extinction of biotic interactions due to habitat loss could accelerate the current biodiversity crisis
Habitat loss disrupts species interactions through local extinctions, potentially orphaning
species that depend on interacting partners, via mutualisms or commensalisms, and …

The reliability of regional ecological knowledge to build local interaction networks: a test using seed-dispersal networks across land-bridge islands
Building ecological networks is the fundamental basis of depicting how species in
communities interact, but sampling complex interaction networks is extremely labour …
