Species interactions are internally constrained despite large climatic variability Open
Understanding how vital rates and species interactions vary over time is crucial for predicting community responses to environmental change. Considerable progress has been made in understanding the drivers of variation in vital rates. Howe…

A practical guide to characterising ecological coexistence Open
Coexistence is simultaneously one of the most fundamental concepts of ecology, and one of the most difficult to define. A particular challenge is that, despite a well‐developed body of research, several different schools of thought have de…

When can we expect negative effects of plant diversity on community biomass? Open
Although experiments overwhelmingly show biodiversity increases ecosystem functioning, relationships in natural communities are more variable. This raises the question of under which conditions negative diversity effects might occur. We ar…

Competition for food affects the strength of reproductive interference and its consequences for species coexistence Open
Competition for food and reproductive interference (negative interspecific sexual interactions) have been identified as major drivers of species exclusion. Still, how these biotic interactions jointly determine competitive dominance remain…

Salt marsh macrofauna: An overview of functions and services Open
Salt marshes are globally important blue carbon ecosystems, providing essential services such as coastal protection, carbon sequestration, nutrient cycling, and biodiversity support. Among their key inhabitants, macrofauna play critical ro…

A general framework for cycles in ecology Open
Theory predicts that indirect interactions in ecological networks sustain species diversity through oscillatory dynamics. However, a framework linking interaction structure to these cycles is lacking. We develop an analytical toolbox combi…

A Continuum From Positive to Negative Interactions Drives Plant Species' Performance in a Diverse Community Open
With many species interacting in nature, determining which interactions describe community dynamics is nontrivial. By applying a computational modeling approach to an extensive field survey, we assessed the importance of interactions from …

TOP-DOWN CLIMATIC PROCESSES MODULATE BIODIVERSITY-FUNCTIONING RELATIONSHIPS ACROSS NORTH AMERICAN FORESTS Open
Experimental evidence indicates that more diverse communities sustain higher levels of ecosystem functioning. Generally, bottom-up processes accounting for community selection and complementarity effects on biodiversity are used to explain…

Cooperation maximizes biodiversity Open
Cooperation, the mutual benefit that individuals of different species obtain when they interact together, is ubiquitous in nature. Despite their importance, most of all current ecological theories have been formalized focusing on negative …

Climate change and exotic pathogens shift carbon allocation in Mediterranean mixed forests Open
Forecasting the effects of global change drivers on ecosystems is one of the most pressing challenges for scientists worldwide. Particularly, climate change and exotic pathogens might have a large impact on plant community dynamics and eco…

Predicting and Prioritising Community Assembly: Learning Outcomes via Experiments Open
Community assembly provides the foundation for applications in biodiversity conservation, climate change, invasion, restoration and synthetic ecology. However, predicting and prioritising assembly outcomes remains difficult. We address thi…

View article: Can competitive effects and responses of alien and native species predict invasion outcomes?
Can competitive effects and responses of alien and native species predict invasion outcomes? Open
The relative competitive ability of native and alien species, which consists of competitive effect (CE) and response (CR), has often been invoked as a key determinant of invasion success. Previous studies have reported that an alien specie…

Fast–slow traits predict competition network structure and its response to resources and enemies Open
Plants interact in complex networks but how network structure depends on resources, natural enemies and species resource‐use strategy remains poorly understood. Here, we quantified competition networks among 18 plants varying in fast–slow …

Positive associations fuel soil biodiversity and ecological networks worldwide Open
Microbial interactions are key to maintaining soil biodiversity. However, whether negative or positive associations govern the soil microbial system at a global scale remains virtually unknown, limiting our understanding of how microbes in…

Beware of trees: Pine afforestation of a naturally treeless habitat reduces flower and pollinator diversity Open
Planting three billion trees to capture carbon and seeking measures to reverse pollinator decline are two key pledges of the EU Biodiversity Strategy for 2030. Although planting trees could be adequate to restore biodiversity in degraded l…

Evidence for antagonistic effects of climate change and exotic pathogens on regeneration of Mediterranean forests Open
Understanding the interactive effects of global change drivers on tree demography is fundamental for realistic predictions of future forest dynamics. Multiple studies have shown increasing drought and exotic pathogens to severely threaten …

Effects of intraspecific variation in a native species' phenology on its coexistence with non‐native plants Open
Intraspecific trait variation is ubiquitous and is likely to influence species coexistence. Despite theoretical progress, empirical work on the effects of intraspecific variation on the dynamics of competing species is rare. This is becaus…
