Environmental stochasticity and low demographic rates may cause delayed extinctions of habitat-specialist species that were initially retained within ...

Land-use change frequently reduces local species diversity. Species losses will often result in loss of trait diversity, with likely consequences for ...

Agricultural intensification poses a serious threat to biodiversity as a consequence of increased land-use intensity, decreased landscape heterogeneit...

Insect parasitoids comprise a large fraction of terrestrial biodiversity. Because of this diversity, species-level conservation of most parasitoid spe...

To counteract the decline of farmland biodiversity in Europe, it is crucial to recognize habitats that are hot spots. Old rural settlements (e.g. vill...

Terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) captures the three-dimensional structure of habitats. Compared to traditional methods of forest mensuration, it allow...

Biological control of crop pests is a major ecosystem service affected by several variables acting at multiple spatial scales. Among these variables, ...

The effects of anthropogenic disturbance upon the stability of wildlife communities depend on the heterogeneity and connectivity of habitat remnants o...

Resource selection specialization may increase vulnerability of populations to environmental change. One environmental change that may negatively impa...

Functional responses in habitat selection occur when individuals adjust their selection of habitat features as a function of the availability of those...
