DOI: 10.1002/ece3.3351
Abstract: Abstract A major focus of invasion biology is understanding the traits associated with introduction success. Most studies assess these traits in the invaded region, while only few compare nonindigenous species to the pool of potential… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ecs2.4887
Abstract: Understanding the trophic and demographic dynamics of apex predators is of paramount importance for ecosystem conservation. Apex predators are usually free from predation, and thus, the main driver of population dynamics is the availability of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/lno.10620
Abstract: Comparison of highly successful and less successful invasive species can highlight traits that are associated with invasion success, and indicate the associated risk of further establishment or invasion from novel species. We compared variation in… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/oik.11347
Abstract: Plant species adapt to changing climates through phenotypic plasticity and natural selection, affecting invasive plants' niche breadth. However, our limited understanding of how temperature affects the relative importance of phenotypic plasticity and natural selection contributes… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/biolinnean/blaa172
Abstract: Niche breadth and position can influence diversification among closely related species or populations, yet limited empirical data exist concerning the predictability of the outcomes. We explored the effects of these factors on the evolution of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1098/rsos.230051
Abstract: The relationship between species local abundance and their regional distribution (occupancy) is one of the most extensively recognized and investigated patterns in ecology. While exceptions exist, the generally held model is that locally abundant species… read more here.

Brocket deer niche breadth and overlap: spatial similarities limit species coexistence
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2024 at "Journal of Zoology"
DOI: 10.1111/jzo.13180
Abstract: Understanding species coexistence requires information about how species interact and partition their ecological niche. Niches of closely related species tend to be quite similar and thereby, when syntopic, overlap can result in competition when shared… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/mec.15739
Abstract: Local adaptation can occur at small spatial scales relative to the dispersal capacity of species. Alpine ecosystems have sharp environmental clines that offer an opportunity to investigate the effects of fine‐scale shifts in species’ niche… read more here.
