Open DOI
Experiment and natural variation in N and P inputs elucidate complexity in freshwater ecosystems
Extending ecological inference from local experiments to broader spatial extents remains a challenge. Here, we leveraged the natural, self‐contained aquatic ecosystem of the pitcher plant ( Sarracenia purpurea ) to test whether locally o...

DOI 10.1002/ecy.70522
Open DOI
Joint count transformation models with covariate‐dependent correlations
Joint species distribution models are essential for understanding how ecological covariates shape species communities. However, most existing approaches are limited by rigid parametric distributions for count data and the inability to mo...

Global change threatens the biodiversity of cold regions: Current knowledge and priorities for further research
Cold regions are among the most pristine areas remaining globally, hosting unique fauna and flora. Historically, these regions have often been refugia from land‐use change, resource exploitation, and pollution, but climate warming and bi...

DOI 10.1002/ecy.70529
Open DOI
Species‐specific reduction of survival and predation in ladybirds exposed to prolonged and intensified heat waves
Climate change exacerbates heat waves, threatening ecosystems by disrupting species survival and interactions. Insects are highly sensitive to temperature extremes, exhibiting species‐specific stress which can impact community dynamics. ...

DOI 10.1002/ecy.70527
Open DOI
Corridors increase ant diversity over time
Globally, habitat loss and fragmentation pose significant threats to biodiversity. Habitat corridors are often used in fragmented landscapes to reconnect isolated patches. However, understanding how corridors function can be challenging,...

DOI 10.1002/ecy.70545
Open DOI
Resource abundance influences the fitness cost of antipredator responses
Predation risk induces antipredator responses in prey which, if prolonged, can negatively affect their fitness. However, risk effects on prey traits and fitness are often modulated by other ecological factors, such as food resources. Whi...

Doomed from the start: Consequences of a harsh early life on life‐history traits of a wild Arctic ungulate
Environmental conditions in early life can generate long‐term individual differences in life‐history traits such as survival and reproduction. Early‐life conditions can challenge developing individuals through distinct environmental mech...

Open DOI
Nitrogen dynamics 35 years after stand‐replacing fire: Aboveground pools grow as surface soil pools remain unchanged
Natural disturbances induce variable recovery pathways, and long‐term studies are key to understanding how that variability affects ecosystem function over time and across space. In subalpine forests, high‐severity wildfires produce high...
