DOI: 10.1002/ajb2.1049
Abstract: PREMISE OF THE STUDY Evolutionary and biogeographic history, including past environmental change and diversification processes, are likely to have influenced the expansion, migration, and extinction of populations, creating evolutionary legacy effects that influence regional species… read more here.

Manipulation of habitat isolation and area implicates deterministic factors and limited neutrality in community assembly

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.3126
Abstract: Abstract Theory predicts deterministic and stochastic factors will contribute to community assembly in different ways: Environmental filters should regulate those species that establish in a particular area resulting in the ecological requirements of species being… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.3777
Abstract: Abstract Underground community assemblies have not been studied well compared with aboveground communities, despite their importance for our understanding of whole ecosystems. To investigate underground community assembly over evolutionary timescales, we examined terrestrial earthworm communities… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.3984
Abstract: Abstract The insular limestone karsts of northern Vietnam harbor a very rich biodiversity. Many taxa are strongly associated with these environments, and individual species communities can differ considerably among karst areas. The exact processes that… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.4868
Abstract: Abstract Identifying the influence of stochastic processes and of deterministic processes, such as dispersal of individuals of different species and trait‐based environmental filtering, has long been a challenge in studies of community assembly. Here, we… read more here.

Community assembly during vegetation succession after metal mining is driven by multiple processes with temporal variation

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.8882
Abstract: Abstract The mechanisms governing community assembly is fundamental to ecological restoration and clarification of the assembly processes associated with severe disturbances (characterized by no biological legacy and serious environmental problems) is essential. However, a systematic… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.9012
Abstract: Abstract Heterogeneity in riverine habitats acts as a template for species evolution that influences river communities at different spatio‐temporal scales. Although birds are conspicuous elements of these communities, the roles of phylogeny, functional traits, and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ecy.1820
Abstract: The order in which species arrive during community assembly can be an important driver of community composition and function. However, the strength of these priority effects can be variable, in part because of strong site… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ecy.2727
Abstract: Character displacement may facilitate species coexistence through niche partitioning. However, the degree to which character displacement influences broader patterns of community assembly is unclear. Here, we capitalize on a natural experiment of community assembly on… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ecy.2968
Abstract: The movement of organisms across habitat boundaries has important consequences for populations, communities, and ecosystems. However, because most species are not well adapted to all habitat types, dispersal into suboptimal habitats could induce physiological changes… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ecy.3058
Abstract: Many studies have tried to assess the role of both deterministic and stochastic processes in community assembly, yet a lack of consensus exists on which processes are more prevalent and at which spatial scales they… read more here.
