• Animal migration to northern latitudes: environmental changes and increasing threats 

      Kubelka, Vojtěch; Sandercock, Brett; Székely, Tamás; Freckleton, Robert P. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Every year, many wild animals undertake long-distance migration to breed in the north, taking advantage of seasonally high pulses in food supply, fewer parasites, and lower predation pressure in comparison with equatorial ...
    • Co-adaptation is key to coexisting with large carnivores 

      Carter, Neil H.; Linnell, John Durrus (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)
      There is a pressing need to integrate large carnivore species into multi-use landscapes outside protected areas. However, an unclear understanding of coexistence hinders the realization of this goal. Here, we provide a ...
    • 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 ...
    • Emerging technologies revolutionise insect ecology and monitoring 

      van Klink, Roel; August, Tom; Bas, Yves; Bodesheim, Paul; Bonn, Aletta; Fossøy, Frode; Høye, Toke T.; Jongejans, Eelke; Menz, Myles H.M.; Miraldo, Andreia; Roslin, Tomas; Roy, Helen E.; Ruczyński, Ireneusz; Schigel, Dmitry; Schäffler, Livia; Sheard, Julie K.; Svenningsen, Cecilie; Tschan, Georg F.; Wäldchen, Jana; Zizka, Vera M.A.; Åström, Jens; Bowler, Diana Elizabeth (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Insects are the most diverse group of animals on Earth, but their small size and high diversity have always made them challenging to study. Recent technologi- cal advances have the potential to revolutionise insect ecology ...
    • 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 ...
    • Recommendations for quantitative uncertainty consideration in ecology and evolution 

      Simmonds, Emily Grace; Adjei, Kwaku Peprah; Cretois, Benjamin; Dickel, Lisa; González-Gil, Ricardo; Laverick, Jack H; Mandeville, Caitlin Marie; Mandeville, Elisabeth G.; Ovaskainen, Otso Tapio; Sicacha Parada, Jorge Armando; Skarstein, Emma; O'Hara, Robert (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      Ecological and evolutionary studies are currently failing to achieve complete and consistent reporting of model-related uncertainty. We identify three key barriers – a focus on parameter-related uncertainty, obscure ...

      Ecological and evolutionary studies are currently failing to achieve complete and consistent reporting of model-related uncertainty. We identify three key barriers – a focus on parameter-related uncertainty, obscure ...
    • Understanding and overcoming obstacles in adaptive management 

      Månsson, Johan; Eriksson, Louise; Hodgson, Isla; Elmberg, Johan; Bunnefeld, Nils; Hessel, Rebecca; Johansson, Maria; Liljebäck, Niklas; Nilsson, Lovisa; Olsson, Camilla; Pärt, Tomas; Sandström, Camilla; Tombre, Ingunn; Redpath, Steve M. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Adaptive management (AM) is widely promoted to improve management of natural resources, yet its implementation is challenging. We show that obstacles to the im- plementation of AM are related not only to the AM process per ...
