Fungal diversity drives key processes in terrestrial ecosystems, but remains challenging to measure in the field and to monitor over time. In particul...

Among saproxylic beetles, many early colonizers prefer particular host species. Ranking of preferred hosts of local saproxylic beetle communities is c...

Logging to "salvage" economic returns from forests affected by natural disturbances has become increasingly prevalent globally. Despite potential nega...

Non-native tree species are widely used in forest plantations. This may have negative consequences for biodiversity. Hitherto, most studies have compa...

Analysis of aerial photographs showed measurable conversion of closed canopy miombo woodland to sparse woodland (<50% canopy cover) during 1982-90 ...

Natural England commissioned surveys in 2014 and 2015 to evaluate Pixton Park's current value as an old parkland, for its wildlife habitats, invertebr...

There is a risk that short-term studies either underestimate disturbance effects because of time-lagged responses, including both time-lagged extincti...

Global urbanisation reduces greenery and species richness (biodiversity) and limits opportunities for most children to gain experiences of nature. Dis...

Persistence of standing dead trees (snags) is an important determinant for their role for biodiversity and dead wood associated carbon fluxes. How fas...
