Diatoms include a great diversity of taxa and are recognized as powerful bioindicators of freshwater quality. However, using diatoms for bioassessment...

Despite important progress in understanding the impacts of forest clearing and logging on above-ground communities, how these disturbances affect soil...

With the potential extinction of threatened species, communities and species pools could become functionally and phylogenetically impoverished, especi...

Mammals are globally in decline, with habitat loss a primary driver. There are also human-wildlife conflicts, such as elephants destroying crops, whic...

Land-use intensification leads to loss and degradation of habitats and is thus a major driver of biodiversity loss. Restoration strategies typically f...

Climate change will increase uncertainty in restoration outcomes due to greater water stress and other abiotic filters that limit plant survival. Drou...

The conversion of rainforests into agriculture resulted in massive changes in species diversity and community structure. Although the conservation of ...

Plant pathogens are introduced to new geographical regions ever more frequently as global connectivity increases. Predicting the threat they pose to p...

Understanding how interspecific variation in functional traits influences species' capacity to persist in fragments and use patches in fragmented land...

This paper explores the statistical sampling properties of Δ, the taxonomic diversity index, and Δ*, the taxonomic distinctness index. Taxonomic diver...
