Can large unmanaged trees replace ancient pollarded trees as habitats for lichenized fungi, non-lichenized fungi and bryophytes?
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Management of ancient trees constitutes a major dilemma in the conservation of associated biodiversity. While traditional methods are often advocated, such practices may incur considerable costs and their effects have ... -
Climate and land‑cover change alter bumblebee species richness and community composition in subalpine areas
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Climate and land-use change are recognised as the two main drivers of the ongoing reorganisation of Earth’s biodiversity, but understanding precisely their role in shaping species’ distributions and communities remains ... -
Contrasting multi-taxa functional diversity patterns along vegetation structure gradients of woody pastures
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Woody pastures represent keystone habitats for biodiversity in agricultural landscapes, contributing to increased resource availability, landscape heterogeneity and structural variability. High taxonomic diversity is closely ... -
Fragmentation in calcareous grasslands: species specialization matters
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Habitat fragmentation resulting from anthropogenic land-use change may negatively affect both biodiversity and ecosystem structure and function. However, susceptibility to fragmentation varies between species and may be ... -
Interpreting ‘favourable conservation status’ for large carnivores in Europe: how many are needed and how many are wanted?
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)The EU Habitats Directive is a key biodiversity conservation instrument. It contains legal obligations for the 28 EU member states in order to safeguard a ‘favourable conservation status’ (FCS) for selected species and ... -
Legal implications of range expansions in a terrestrial carnivore: the case of the golden jackal (Canis aureus) in Europe
(Journal article, 2015)Due to global environmental changes, species are appearing more frequently in places where they have not previously occurred, and this trend is expected to continue. Such range expansions can create considerable challenges ... -
Observed and projected changes in urbanization and nature conservation in a typical fast growing city of Ethiopia, Jimma
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Urbanization poses a signifcant threat to biodiversity, particularly in developing nations characterized by high rural–urban migration and inadequate urban planning that fails to consider nature conservation. Insufcient ... -
Off the conservation radar: the hidden story of Europe’s tiny pea clams (Bivalvia: Sphaeriidae)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)This study highlights the conservation problems faced by the tiny freshwater bivalves of the family Sphaeriidae, also known as pea, pill, or fingernail clams (or mussels) in Europe. Despite their global distribution, assumed ... -
The Network of Knowledge approach: improving the science and society dialogue on biodiversity and ecosystem services in Europe
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)The absence of a good interface between scientific and other knowledge holders and decision-makers in the area of biodiversity and ecosystem services has been recognised for a long time. Despite recent advancements, e.g. ...
