DOI: 10.1002/ece3.5509
Abstract: Abstract Manipulation experiments are a cornerstone of ecological research, but can be logistically challenging to execute—particularly when they are intended to isolate the ecological role of large, vagile species, like birds. Despite indirect evidence that… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ecs2.1994
Abstract: Wind energy development can negatively impact bird populations due to bird–turbine collisions. To accurately estimate bird mortality at wind farms, the number of dead birds found under turbines is commonly corrected for carcass removal by… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ecs2.2624
Abstract: The science of urban ecology has increasingly grappled with the long-term ramifications of a globally urbanized planet and the impacts on biodiversity. Some researchers have suggested that places with high species diversity in cities simply… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ecs2.3352
Abstract: During the last few decades, much attention has focused on how global change is affecting the environment and species distributions. Land-use change is still the major cause of species declines worldwide, but changes in species… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ecy.1981
Abstract: Changes in climate can indirectly regulate populations at higher trophic levels by influencing the availability of food resources in the lower reaches of the food web. As such, species that rely on fruit and nectar… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ecy.3124
Abstract: Hypotheses about the mechanisms of community assembly suggest that biotic and abiotic filters constrain species establishment through selection on their functional traits. It is unclear how differences in traits influence the niche dimensions of closely-related… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ecy.3731
Abstract: Abstract Our knowledge of the factors affecting species abundances is mainly based on time‐series analyses of a few well‐studied species at single or few localities, but we know little about whether results from such analyses… read more here.
