DOI: 10.1002/ece3.8978
Abstract: Abstract The extent to which persisting species may fill the functional role of extirpated or declining species has profound implications for the structure of biological communities and ecosystem functioning. In North America, arthropodivorous bats are… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00338-019-01792-x
Abstract: Degradation and loss of reef habitat is one of the foremost threats to coral reef fishes, especially for highly specialised species with specific reliance on live corals. Aside from affecting the carrying capacity of local… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/ele.70264
Abstract: ABSTRACT Carryover effects broadly influence adult performance and population persistence. Although variation in developmental environments can have contrasting effects on survival and reproduction, current predictive models of vulnerability to environmental change typically ignore simultaneous changes… read more here.

DOI: 10.1186/s12915-025-02393-7
Abstract: Museomics utilizes historical genetic data from museum specimens to inform threatened species conservation. The Yellow-breasted Bunting (Emberiza aureola) and the Jankowski’s Bunting (E. jankowskii), categorized as Critically Endangered or Endangered, respectively, have experienced population declines… read more here.

DOI: 10.1186/s12915-025-02478-3
Abstract: Anthropogenic forces have resulted in staggering losses of biodiversity and population declines in many species over the past two centuries. Associated with these declines are potential adverse effects linked to small population sizes, including loss… read more here.
