Phenology determines the robustness of plant-pollinator networks
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2018)
Plant-pollinator systems are essential for ecosystem functioning, which calls for an understanding of the determinants of their robustness to environmental threats. Previous studies considering such robustness have focused ...
Global ecological predictors of the soil priming effect
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2019)
Identifying the global drivers of soil priming is essential to understanding C cycling in terrestrial ecosystems. We conducted a survey of soils across 86 globally-distributed locations, spanning a wide range of climates, ...
Seabird and pinniped shape soil bacterial communities of their settlements in Cape Shirreff, Antarctica
(PUBLIC LIBRARY SCIENCE, 2019)
Seabirds and pinnipeds play an important role in biogeochemical cycling by transferring nutrients from aquatic to terrestrial environments. Indeed, soils rich in animal depositions have generally high organic carbon, ...
Changes in belowground biodiversity during ecosystem development
(NATL ACAD SCIENCES, 2019)
Belowground organisms play critical roles in maintaining multiple ecosystem processes, including plant productivity, decomposition, and nutrient cycling. Despite their importance, however, we have a limited understanding ...
High similarity in the microbiota of cold-water sponges of the Genus Mycale from two different geographical areas
(PEERJ INC, 2018)
Sponges belonging to genus Mycale are common and widely distributed across the oceans and represent a significant component of benthic communities in term of their biomass, which in many species is largely composed by ...
Maintaining close canopy cover prevents the invasion of Pinus radiata: Basic ecology to manage native forest invasibility
(PUBLIC LIBRARY SCIENCE, 2019)
Pine invasion is a global threat that is occurring in native forests of diverse regions of the world. This process is arising in a scenario of rapid forest deforestation and degradation. Therefore, elucidate which forests ...
Species traits and network structure predict the success and impacts of pollinator invasions
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2018)
Species invasions constitute a major and poorly understood threat to plant-pollinator systems. General theory predicting which factors drive species invasion success and subsequent effects on native ecosystems is particularly ...
