Biological invasions are characterized by occasional long-distance, human-assisted dispersal. Centres of human transportation that are connected by tr...

This paper serves as an introduction to a special journal section on grazing and biodiversity in grasslands. Natural, semi-natural and artificial gras...

There are few long-term experimental studies of plant community responses to changes in grazing intensity. Here we report species' changes in a mesotr...

Shrub encroachment has been widely observed in savanna regions. This study analysed the causes of shrub encroachment in the lowveld savanna of north-e...

Echium plantagineum is native to the western Mediterranean Basin, where it is a common, but not dominant, component of species-rich annual grasslands....

Climate change, in combination with the impacts of land use, will give rise to new opportunities for grassland invasion. This paper reports on the rep...

Carabid beetles are polyphagous predators that can act as biological control agents of insect pests and weeds. While current agricultural practices of...

Disturbance is widely believed to facilitate invasions by exotic plants, but is also important for the persistence of many native species. The results...

Despite continued global declines in large carnivore abundance and distribution, some species are recovering. In North America, these recoveries can o...
