Recent work has shown that the dynamics of woody and herbaceous vegetation mosaics under grazing or browsing can be strongly affected by the spatial p...

Aggressive behaviour of top predators may have strong effects on the distribution and abundance of mesopredator species. Such interactions between pre...

Increasing plant species richness often increases biomass production in nutrient-poor semi-natural grasslands. If such positive diversity-productivity...

Population declines of vultures of the genus Gyps in the Indian Subcontinent in the 1990s and 2000s were among the most rapid global population declin...

Active restoration to rehabilitate degraded tropical lands often involves planting tree seedlings, an effective but expensive approach if large areas ...

Generalist insect predators provide an important ecosystem service in the regulation of agricultural pests. However, the role of predation in the dyna...

Habitat conversion for agriculture is a major driver of biodiversity loss, but our understanding of the demographic processes involved remains poor. W...

Occupancy estimates can inform biodiversity managers about the distribution of elusive species, such as the Pyrenean desman Galemys pyrenaicus, a smal...

Modern methods of crop production are regarded as one of the major factors moderating ecosystem processes in agricultural landscapes and may negativel...

A major challenge in the conservation of threatened and endangered species is to predict population decline and design appropriate recovery measures. ...
