Ecological effects of biodiversity (Biodiversity 🦗)
The diversity of species and genes in ecological communities affects the functioning of these communities. These ecological effects of biodiversity in turn are affected by both climate change through enhanced greenhouse gases, aerosols and loss of land cover, and ...

Niche apportionment models (Biodiversity 🦗)
Mechanistic models for niche apportionment are biological models used to explain relative species abundance distributions. These niche apportionment models describe how species break up resource pool in multi-dimensional space, determining the distribution of abundances of individuals among species....

New preprint using neutral models instead of randomised null-models for analysis of species distribution patterns (#nestedness, #segregation).
Might also interest #coalescence, island #biogeography, bird people.
Has a quick-start tutorial.

Urban evolution (Habitat 🌄)
Urban evolution refers to the heritable genetic changes of populations in response to urban development and anthropogenic activities in urban areas. Urban evolution can be caused by mutation, genetic drift, gene flow, or evolution by natural selection. Biologists have observed evolutionary change in numerous species compared to ...

New paper alert, led by Jose Lanuza!
#plantpollinator #traits #CommunityEcology #macroecologyRT @barragan_lanuza It took very long and a lot of effort but finally is out! "Covariation among reproductive traits in flowering plants shapes their interactions with pollinators" https://doi.org/10.1111/1365-2435.14340

Oh, that was fantastic! Thanks, Virginia, for sharing your cool results on how tripartite interaction #networks are structured and how their structure links to #robustness. Traditionally, ecologists have studied networks that contain only one single type of interaction, such as food webs or pollination webs. Your work points towards the future by looking at 2 interaction types in concert! I'm impressed!

So excited to share our new paper! Climate influences roles of insect #pollinators in #plantpollinator #networks and non-bee taxa often play central roles, especially in cooler #climate zones #CommunityEcology https://t.co/euiMYMPiO0

I'm a post-doc trying to understand the vegetated land surface through space and time.
My research touches areas of ecology, biogeography, functional traits & diversity, ecosystem fun., and veg. modelling.
I aim to disentangle interactions between functional diversity and ecosystem function using #ecoevo vegetation models (aDGVM2, LPJ-GUESS-NTD).

I've put together a list of the links to my sites in case you want to find out more about how I use experiments and theory to understand how species interactions shape ecosystem stability and functioning.

#AssistantProfessor at U. of North Texas #UNT. I study #BehavioralEcology (#BehaviouralEcology) and #CommunityEcology with #insect #pollinators. My lab focuses on how #GlobalChange affects pollinator communities and the interactions within those communities, including #bee #foraging behavior.
Current projects study pollinators in #rangeland and #SocialInformation use across insect functional groups. Also collaborating with #TPWD to assess #conservation status of TX #NativeBees.

Trying my #introduction again with hashtags!
I work on #CommunityEcology #InsectConservation #PlantPollinator networks and the ecology of #EcosystemServices in #Agroecosystems #Wetlands and #Woodlands.
My blog #EcologyIsNotADirtyWord is 13 years old! https://ecologyisnotadirtyword.com/ #ScienceCommunication

👋 I am a senior research assistant in the #Altermatt_lab at #University_of_Zurich and #Eawag.
My research focuses on #amphipods, their #diversity and #distribution, both in epigean and subterranean #ecosystems. I combine field data and laboratory experiments to study the influence of connectivity on #diversity and the role of #amphipods for #ecosystem functioning in #freshwater.

I am a junior research group leader for #ecoevo #modelling at the University of Hohenheim in Germany.
We study all kinds of #EcologicalNetworks. We want to know how such networks are structured, how they maintain their balance and how they respond to #globalchange. We approach these questions from a theoretical point of view, using computer simulations and mathematics.
