Holistic insect monitoring needs scalable techniques to overcome taxon biases, determine
species abundances, and gather functional traits for all species. This requires that we …

Policy makers require high‐level summaries of biodiversity change. However, deriving such
summaries from raw biodiversity data is a complex process involving several intermediary …

Insects provide critical ecosystem services such as biological pest control, in which natural
enemies (NE) regulate the populations of crop-feeding herbivores (H). While H-NE …

Human activities cause substantial changes in biodiversity. 1, 2 Despite ongoing concern
about the implications of invertebrate decline, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 few empirical studies have …

Modern agriculture has drastically changed global landscapes and introduced pressures on
wildlife populations. Policy and management of agricultural systems has changed over the …

Although many studies show the negative impacts of agricultural activities on aquatic
ecosystems, few relate functional and structural characteristics of the biota. We evaluate the …

Global climate change is expected to exacerbate extreme discharge events in freshwater
ecosystems as a consequence of changes in precipitation volume and snow cover duration …

The use of trait-based approaches to understand ecological communities has increased in
the past two decades because of their promise to preserve more information about …

Estuaries face mounting anthropic pressures. Climate change is projected to increase heavy
precipitations, while agricultural and logging activities reduce land permeability, leading to …

Recent research on earthworms has shed light on their global distribution, with high alpha
richness in temperate zones and high beta diversity in tropical areas. Climate and …
