Almost half of the total organic carbon (C) in terrestrial ecosystems is stored in forest soils.
By altering rates of input or release of C from soils, forest management activities can …

Unprecedented rates of introduction and spread of non-native species pose burgeoning
challenges to biodiversity, natural resource management, regional economies, and human …

Aim Recent studies increasingly use statistical methods to infer biotic interactions from co‐
occurrence information at a large spatial scale. However, disentangling biotic interactions …

All terrestrial ecosystems consist of aboveground and belowground components that interact
to influence community-and ecosystem-level processes and properties. Here we show how …

The main drivers of global environmental change (CO2 enrichment, nitrogen deposition,
climate, biotic invasions and land use) cause extinctions and alter species distributions, and …

▪ Abstract Deer have expanded their range and increased dramatically in abundance
worldwide in recent decades. They inflict major economic losses in forestry, agriculture, and …

Trophic cascades—the top-down regulation of ecosystems by predators—are an essential
aspect of ecosystem function and well-being. Trophic cascades are often drastically …

Forests play critical roles in global ecosystem processes and provide numerous services to
society. But forests are increasingly affected by a variety of human influences, especially …

Since it has become appreciated that soil nematode assemblages are abundant, diverse
and contribute to soil nutrient turnover, they have been increasingly used as indicators of …

Both arthropods and large grazing herbivores are important components and drivers of
biodiversity in grassland ecosystems, but a synthesis of how arthropod diversity is affected …
