• Defining ecological buffer mechanisms should consider diverse approaches 

      Milles, Alexander; Bielcik, Milos; Banitz, Thomas; Gallagher, Cara A.; Jeltsch, Florian; Jepsen, Jane Uhd; Oro, Daniel; Radchuk, Viktoriia; Grimm, Volker (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      In their response letter, Gascoigne et al. propose a relevant approach to characterizing ecological buffer mechanisms, akin to the study of buffer mechanisms in chemistry [1]. Their chemistry-inspired viewpoint enables ...
    • Local buffer mechanisms for population persistence 

      Milles, Alexander; Banitz, Thomas; Bielcik, Milos; Frank, Karin; Gallagher, Cara A.; Jeltsch, Florian; Jepsen, Jane Uhd; Oro, Daniel; Radchuk, Viktoriia; Grimm, Volker (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      Assessing and predicting the persistence of populations is essential for the conservation and control of species. Here, we argue that local mechanisms require a better conceptual synthesis to facilitate a more holistic ...
