Assessing the potential replacement of laurel forest by a novel ecosystem in the steep terrain of an Oceanic Island (2020)
Journal Article
Devkota, R. S., Field, R., Hoffmann, S., Walentowitz, A., Medina, F. M., Vetaas, O. R., …Beierkuhnlein, C. (2020). Assessing the potential replacement of laurel forest by a novel ecosystem in the steep terrain of an Oceanic Island. Remote Sensing, 12(24), Article 4013. https://doi.org/10.3390/rs12244013

© 2020 by the authors. Licensee MDPI, Basel, Switzerland. T. Biological invasions are a major global threat to biodiversity and often affect ecosystem services negatively. They are particularly problematic on oceanic islands where there are many narr...

Snapshot isolation and isolation history challenge the analogy between mountains and islands used to understand endemism (2020)
Journal Article
Flantua, S. G. A., Payne, D., Borregaard, M. K., Beierkuhnlein, C., Steinbauer, M. J., Dullinger, S., …Field, R. (2020). Snapshot isolation and isolation history challenge the analogy between mountains and islands used to understand endemism. Global Ecology and Biogeography, 29(10), 1651-1673. https://doi.org/10.1111/geb.13155

© 2020 The Authors. Global Ecology and Biogeography published by John Wiley & Sons Ltd Aim: Mountains and islands are both well known for their high endemism. To explain this similarity, parallels have been drawn between the insularity of “true isl...

A grid-based map for the biogeographical regions of Europe (2020)
Journal Article
Cervellini, M., Zannini, P., Di Musciano, M., Fattorini, S., Jiménez-Alfaro, B., Rocchini, D., …Chiarucci, A. (2020). A grid-based map for the biogeographical regions of Europe. Biodiversity Data Journal, 8, Article e53720. https://doi.org/10.3897/BDJ.8.e53720

© Pensoft Publishers. Background Biogeographical units are widely adopted in ecological research and nature conservation management, even though biogeographical regionalisation is still under scientific debate. The European Environment Agency provide... Read More about A grid-based map for the biogeographical regions of Europe.

Diversification in evolutionary arenas - Assessment and synthesis (2020)
Journal Article
Nürk, N. M., Linder, H. P., Onstein, R. E., Larcombe, M. J., Hughes, C. E., Piñeiro Fernández, L., …Pirie, M. D. (2020). Diversification in evolutionary arenas - Assessment and synthesis. Ecology and Evolution, 10(12), 6163-6182. https://doi.org/10.1002/ece3.6313

© 2020 The Authors. Ecology and Evolution published by John Wiley & Sons Ltd. Understanding how and why rates of evolutionary diversification vary is a key issue in evolutionary biology, ecology, and biogeography. Evolutionary rates are the net res...

Can rock-rubble groynes support similar intertidal ecological communities to natural rocky shores? (2020)
Journal Article
Holloway, P., & Field, R. (2020). Can rock-rubble groynes support similar intertidal ecological communities to natural rocky shores?. Land, 9(5), https://doi.org/10.3390/LAND9050131

© 2020 by the authors. Despite the global implementation of rock-rubble groyne structures, there is limited research investigating their ecology, much less than for other artificial coastal structures. Here we compare the intertidal ecology of urban... Read More about Can rock-rubble groynes support similar intertidal ecological communities to natural rocky shores?.
