Changes in the diversity and composition of tree-related microhabitats across climate and human impact gradients on a tropical mountain

G. Bianco, A. Hemp, M. Schleuning

This study examines how tree-related microhabitat diversity and composition change along climate and human impact gradients in tropical ecosystems on Kilimanjaro.

An adapted typology of tree-related microhabitats including tropical forests

R. Nusser, G. Bianco, D. Kraus, L. Larrieu, H. Feldhaar, M. Schleuning, J. Mueller

This study extends the typology of tree-related microhabitats to include tropical forests and compares their diversity between tropical and temperate forests.

Reassembly of a tropical rainforest ecosystem: A new chronosequence in the Ecuadorian Choco tested with the recovery of tree attributes

S. Escobar, F. L. Newell, M.-J. Endara, J. E. Guevara-Andino, A. R. Landim, E. L. Neuschulz, R. Nusser, J. Müller, K. M. Pedersen, M. Schleuning, C. J. Tremlett, E. Villa-Galaviz, H. M. Schaefer, D. A. Donoso, N. Blüthgen

The paper introduces a large-scale chronosequence in the Ecuadorian Choco to study forest recovery, finding that forest structure, biomass, and species richness increase with regeneration time and approach old-growth levels after decades to centuries.

Estimation of Uncertainty and Location-specific Variation in Regional Food Web Interactions

A. M. Brothers, V. Santillan, M. Quitian, E. L. Neuschultz, M. Schleuning, K. Böhning-Gaese, O. A. Llamoza, C. Thron

The paper estimates spatial variation in food-web interaction strengths using a Bayesian framework and finds that species within the same genus show positive spatial association rather than substitution.

Improved Estimation of Bird Abundance and Energy Consumption by Combining Point and Transect Observations

C. Thron, V. Santillan, M. Quitian, E. L. Neuschulz, M. Schleuning, K. Boehning-Gaese, A. Brothers, M. J. A. Bolagay, O. Alvarez

The paper develops an improved estimator for bird abundance by combining point and transect observations, validated through simulations and confidence interval analysis.

An integrative trait-based framework to infer resource budgets and life-histories of long-lived plants

H. Cooksley, M. Schleuning, A. Neu, K. J. Esler, F. M. Schurr

The paper introduces a Trait-Resource-Life-History framework to model how functional traits influence resource budgets and life-history traits in long-lived plants, revealing trait-mediated trade-offs and resource allocation patterns.

Functional traits shape plant-plant interactions and recruitment in a hotspot of woody plant diversity.

H. Cooksley, L. Dreyling, K. J. Esler, S. Griebenow, G. Neumann, A. Valentine, M. Schleuning, F. M. Schurr

The paper uses a field experiment and trait-based analysis to show how functional traits influence plant survival, growth, and interactions in a diverse Protea community.

Invasive species modulate the structure and stability of a multilayer mutualistic network.

A. Vitali, S. Ruiz-Suarez, D. Vazquez, M. Schleuning, M. Rodriguez-Cabal, Y. Sasal, S. Pilosof

The paper examines how invasive ungulates alter the structure and stability of a pollination-seed dispersal multilayer network in Patagonia, showing reduced connectivity and increased vulnerability to disturbances.

Global plant-frugivore trait matching is shaped by climate and biogeographic history

I. R. McFadden, S. A. Fritz, N. E. Zimmermann, L. Pellissier, W. D. Kissling, J. A. Tobias, M. Schleuning, C. H. Graham

The paper examines global trait matching between frugivorous birds and palms, finding it influenced by climate, biogeographic history, and species richness.

Global and regional ecological boundaries drive abrupt changes in avian frugivory interactions

L. P. Martins, D. B. Stouffer, P. G. Blendinger, K. Bohning-Gaese, G. Buitron-Jurado, M. Correia, J. M. Costa, D. M. Dehling, C. I. Donatti, C. Emer, M. Galetti, R. Heleno, P. Jordano, I. Menezes, J. C. Morante-Filho, , J. M. Tylianakis

The paper examines how ecological boundaries and human disturbance gradients affect avian frugivory networks, finding increased dissimilarity across these boundaries.

Community-wide seed dispersal distances peak at low levels of specialisation in size-structured networks

M. C. Sorensen, M. Schleuning, I. Donoso, E. L. Neuschulz, T. Mueller

The paper links ecological interaction networks to a trait-based seed-dispersal model to show that dispersal distances peak at low levels of niche partitioning.
