Herbivore cross‐scale redundancy supports response diversity and promotes coral reef resilience
Journal of Applied Ecology - Tập 53 Số 3 - Trang 646-655 - 2016
Kirsty L. Nash, Nicholas A. J. Graham, Simon Jennings, Shaun K. Wilson, David R. Bellwood
Summary Functional redundancy contributes to resilience if different species in the same functional group respond to disturbance in different ways (response diversity). If species in a functional group perform their functional role at different spatial scales (cross‐scale redundancy), they are expected to respond differently to...... hiện toàn bộ
Configurational landscape heterogeneity shapes functional community composition of grassland butterflies
Journal of Applied Ecology - Tập 52 Số 2 - Trang 505-513 - 2015
David J. Perović, Sagrario Gámez‐Virués, Carmen Börschig, Alexandra‐Maria Klein, Jochen Krauß, Juliane Steckel, Christoph Rothenwöhrer, Stefan Erasmi, Teja Tscharntke, Catrin Westphal
Summary Landscape heterogeneity represents two aspects of landscape simplification: (i) compositional heterogeneity (diversity of habitat types); and (ii) configurational heterogeneity (number, size and arrangement of habitat patches), both with different ecological implications for community composition.... hiện toàn bộ
Responses of leopard Panthera pardus to the recovery of a tiger Panthera tigris population
Journal of Applied Ecology - Tập 48 Số 3 - Trang 806-814 - 2011
Abishek Harihar, Bivash Pandav, Surendra Prakash Goyal
Patterns and determinants of mammal species occurrence in India
Journal of Applied Ecology - Tập 46 Số 6 - Trang 1189-1200 - 2009
Krithi K. Karanth, James D. Nichols, James E. Hines, K. Ullas Karanth, Norman L. Christensen
Summary 1. Many Indian mammals face range contraction and extinction, but assessments of their population status are hindered by the lack of reliable distribution data and range maps. 2. We estimated the current geographical ranges of 20 species of large mammals by applying occupancy models to data from...... hiện toàn bộ
Social and ecological drivers of success in agri‐environment schemes: the roles of farmers and environmental context
Journal of Applied Ecology - Tập 52 Số 3 - Trang 696-705 - 2015
Morag McCracken, Ben A. Woodcock, Matt Lobley, Richard F. Pywell, Eirini Saratsi, Ruth D. Swetnam, Simon R. Mortimer, Stephanie J. Harris, Michael Winter, Shelley A. Hinsley, James M. Bullock
Summary Agri‐environment schemes remain a controversial approach to reversing biodiversity losses, partly because the drivers of variation in outcomes are poorly understood. In particular, there is a lack of studies that consider both social and ecological factors. We analysed v...... hiện toàn bộ
Impacts of honeybee density on crop yield: A meta‐analysis
Journal of Applied Ecology - Tập 56 Số 5 - Trang 1152-1163 - 2019
Orianne Rollin, Lucas A. Garibaldi
Abstract There is increasing recognition that pollination deficits are limiting crop yields world‐wide. However, management strategies for optimal insect pollination are still unclear for most crops. Current management focuses on providing high densities of honeybees, but recommended densities are highly variable, even within si...... hiện toàn bộ
Could our fisheries be more productive? Indirect negative effects of bottom trawl fisheries on fish condition
Journal of Applied Ecology - Tập 48 Số 6 - Trang 1441-1449 - 2011
Jan Geert Hiddink, Andrew F. Johnson, Rachel Kingham, Hilmar Hinz
Summary1. The nets used in bottom trawl fisheries cause mortality of benthic invertebrates and this can decrease the long‐term availability of prey to exploited fish species by reducing the abundance of benthic invertebrates. This may have consequences for the sustainability of fisheries.2. We assessed ...... hiện toàn bộ
Negative impact of traffic noise on avian reproductive success
Journal of Applied Ecology - Tập 48 Số 1 - Trang 210-219 - 2011
Wouter Halfwerk, Leonard J. M. Holleman, C. M. Lessells, Hans Slabbekoorn
Summary1. Traffic affects large areas of natural habitat worldwide. As a result, the acoustic signals used by birds and other animals are increasingly masked by traffic noise. Masking of signals important to territory defence and mate attraction may have a negative impact on reproductive success. Depending on the overlap in space, time and fr...... hiện toàn bộ
Biases in the analysis of stable isotope discrimination in food webs
Journal of Applied Ecology - Tập 47 Số 4 - Trang 936-941 - 2010
K. Auerswald, M. Wittmer, Antoine Zazzo, Rudi Schäufele, H. Schnyder
Summary 1. Recently, Caut, Angulo & Courchamp (2009, Journal of Applied Ecology) published a review on diet‐tissue isotopic shifts in animals. They concluded that diet‐tissue shifts are influenced by the isotopic composition of the diet for both 13C and 15N in a wide range of animal taxa. 2. We suggest that the conclusion of Caut, Angulo & Courchamp is in error, and provide a discussion of sources of error in the assessment of diet‐tissue discrimination. 3. Errors in the derivation of diet‐tissue shifts include imprecise definitions, mathematical artefacts and invalid statistical analysis. It is likely that the work also suffers from experimental bias. The mathematical artefacts and statistical invalidity result from using the same variable (diet isotopic composition) in the independent and dependent variable for regression analysis and failure to correct for the resulting bias. Experimental bias can result from the incomplete turnover of body pools after diet switches or during natural fluctuations in diet isotope composition. Unfortunately, the main sources of error work in the same direction, strengthening the biased relationship between the diet‐tissue shift and diet isotope composition. Therefore, the analysis of hiện toàn bộ
Linking contaminant profiles to the diet and breeding location of American dippers using stable isotopes
Journal of Applied Ecology - Tập 41 Số 3 - Trang 502-512 - 2004
Christy A. Morrissey, Leah I. Bendell‐Young, John E. Elliott
Summary Individual variation in contaminant levels is a common occurrence in many toxicology studies, but the exact cause is often unclear. We investigated the influence of diet and breeding location on individual bird contaminant profiles using a colour‐marked population of American dippers ... hiện toàn bộ
