Extreme weather events can be expected to increase in frequency in the future. Our knowledge on how this may affect species persistence is, however, v...

Understanding the nature and characteristics of contact heterogeneities is crucial for predicting the epidemic behaviour of infectious diseases. Nonet...

Introduced pathogens and other parasites are often implicated in host population-level declines and extinctions. However, such claims are rarely suppo...

In the face of biodiversity loss worldwide, it is paramount to quantify species' extinction risk to guide conservation efforts. The International Unio...

Old trees have declined in Europe due to agricultural intensification and forestry. For shade-intolerant epiphytic species occurring on old trees in s...

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

Many frugivorous animals act simultaneously as seed predators and dispersers, and shifts in the abundance and mean phenotype of the frugivore populati...

In marine and terrestrial ecosystems, organisms are affected by environmental variations that cause fluctuations in population size. The harvest-inter...

The plant community structure of European lowland forests has changed dramatically in the twentieth century, leading to biodiversity decline at variou...
