The conversion of natural habitats into anthropogenic uses is a key driver of global biodiversity loss, but effects can vary among taxa and diversity ...

Fragmentation is ubiquitous across tropical forests and drives marked shifts in tree community composition by differentially affecting species' disper...

Scattered trees are thought to be keystone structures for biodiversity in landscapes world-wide. However, such trees have been largely neglected by re...

Great efforts have been made to control soil erosion by restoring plant communities in degraded ecosystems world-wide. However, soil erosion has not b...

Climate change is expected to bring fewer, larger rainfall events and prolonged droughts (i.e. increased rainfall variability). Concurrently, the burn...

Effective biodiversity management can only be implemented if data are available on assemblage-environment relationships. The level of detail needs to ...

Certain species of dominant ants were selectively eliminated from different subplots in order to elucidate the influence of ants and other factors on ...

The widespread provision of livestock drinking water in previously dry Australian rangelands has supported concomitant increases in cumulative grazing...

Colonization by woody plants is often very slow or absent on grasslands occupying degraded land in the tropics. Seed dispersal limitation is widely re...

Although ecological restoration has entered the global agenda to reverse different anthropogenic disturbances, we still know little about how this sol...
