DOI: 10.1002/ece3.8708
Abstract: Abstract Land‐use intensification is the main factor for the catastrophic decline of insect pollinators. However, land‐use intensification includes multiple processes that act across various scales and should affect pollinator guilds differently depending on their ecology.… read more here.
