Environmental factors, such as temperature, precipitation, and elevation, explain most of the
variation in species richness at the global scale. Nevertheless, richness patterns may have …

Land use change threatens global biodiversity and compromises ecosystem functions,
including pollination and food production. Reduced taxonomic α‐diversity is often reported …

Abstract The Convention on Biological Diversity seeks to conserve at least 30% of global
land and water areas by 2030, which is a challenge but also an opportunity to better …

Aim Historical climate variations, current climate and human impacts are known to influence
current species richness, but their effects on phylogenetic and trait diversity have been …

Aim Exploring the mechanism underlying community assembly processes is considered as
one of the central topics for biogeography. As one of the biodiversity hotspots, Nepal …

Aim Quantify tree functional and phylogenetic richness and divergence at the global scale,
and explore the drivers underpinning these biogeographic patterns. Location Global. Time …

The correlates of mammal species richness and community associations along elevation
gradients have resulted in conflicting results within tropical systems. We surveyed the …

Context Agricultural intensification is a major driver of farmland biodiversity declines.
However, the relationship between land-use intensity (LUI) and biodiversity is complex and …

Understanding how biodiversity components are related under different environmental
factors is a fundamental challenge for ecology studies, yet there is little knowledge of this …

Aim We aimed to dissect the spatial variation of the direct and indirect effects of climate and
productivity on global species richness of terrestrial tetrapods. Location Global. Time period …
