Seasonal and spatial variation of stream macroinvertebrate taxonomic and functional diversity across three boreal regions

NJ Baker, EAR Welti, F Pilotto, J Jourdan… - Insect Conservation …, 2023 - Wiley Online Library
The exploration of biodiversity has predominantly been based on taxonomic measures,
whereas functional diversity, a key component of biodiversity, is comparatively understudied …

Recovery or reorganisation? Long-term increases in riverine taxonomic and functional diversity are confounded by compositional dynamics

NJ Baker, F Pilotto, EAR Welti, D Osadčaja… - Hydrobiologia, 2024 - Springer
When evaluating biological recovery, shifts in species identity such as non-native status,
specialisation, and functional traits should be examined alongside changes in species …
