Approximately 25 years ago, ecologists became increasingly interested in the question of
whether ongoing biodiversity loss matters for the functioning of ecosystems. As such, a new …

Biodiversity loss during the Anthropocene is a serious ecological challenge. Pollinators are
important vectors that provide multiple essential ecosystem services but are declining …

Human land use threatens global biodiversity and compromises multiple ecosystem
functions critical to food production. Whether crop yield–related ecosystem services can be …

Declining pollinator populations could threaten global food production, especially if current
crop yields are limited by insufficient pollinator visitation to flowers, in a phenomenon …

It is often argued that biodiversity and ecosystem functioning are linked by both habitat and
species composition, and that this relationship is particularly critical for mobile ecosystem …

Fire seasons have become increasingly variable and extreme due to changing
climatological, ecological, and social conditions. Earth observation data are critical for …

Over the past 20 years, there has been growing interest in the possible economic impacts of
pollination service loss and management. Although the literature area has expanded …

Farms can harbor substantial biodiversity, which in turn sustains the supply of ecosystem
services. The effectiveness of farm management to enhance biodiversity, however, may be …

Vineyard inter-rows can provide habitats for a range of plant and animal species especially
when covered with vegetation. However, frequent tillage results in the degradation of habitat …

Bumble bees (Bombus) play key roles as pollinators in temperate ecosystems. Some North
American species have declined due to factors that include habitat loss, parasites …
