DOI: 10.1002/ecy.3224
Abstract: Theory predicts that population genetic structure and metacommunity structure are linked by the common processes of drift and migration, but how population genetic structure and metacommunity structure are related in nature is still unknown. Deeper… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10750-020-04290-2
Abstract: Floodplain lakes are good metacommunity systems to study the environmental and spatial processes structuring local assemblages. They are more connected during high-water periods and are more isolated during low-water periods. We evaluated the effects of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s11119-019-09650-0
Abstract: The analysis and mapping of agronomic and environmental spatial data require observations to be comparable. Heterogeneous spatial datasets are those for which the observations of different datasets cannot be directly compared because they have not… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s11356-021-13281-2
Abstract: It is generally recognized that dispersal mode can affect the relative role of environmental and spatial factors in structuring biotic communities. Disentangling the effects of dispersal mode on metacommunity structuring is essential to understanding the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s12237-017-0263-9
Abstract: We studied the contribution of environmental and spatial factors in determining the metacommunity dynamics of benthic macroinvertebrates in ocean-exposed sandy beaches. A combination of different metacommunity models contributed to the structure of the benthic species,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/ele.14121
Abstract: Abstract Species' responses to broad‐scale environmental or spatial gradients are typically unimodal. Current models of species' responses along gradients tend to be overly simplistic (e.g., linear, quadratic or Gaussian GLMs), or are suitably flexible (e.g.,… read more here.
