Climate reverses directionality in the richness–abundance relationship across the World’s main forest biomes
(Nature, 2020-11-06)More tree species can increase the carbon storage capacity of forests (here referred to as the more species hypothesis) through increased tree productivity and tree abundance resulting from complementarity, but they can ... -
Forest productivity in southwestern Europe is controlled by coupled North Atlantic and Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillations.
(Springer Nature, 2017-12-20)The North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) depicts annual and decadal oscillatory modes of variability responsible for dry spells over the European continent. The NAO therefore holds a great potential to evaluate the role, as ... -
Global patterns of tree density are contingent upon local determinants in the world’s natural forests
(Nature, 2023-01)Previous attempts to quantify tree abundance at global scale have largely neglected the role of local competition in modulating the influence of climate and soils on tree density. Here, we evaluated whether mean tree size ... -
Positive associations among rare species and their persistence in ecological assemblages
(Springer Nature, 2019-12-16)According to the competitive exclusion principle, species with low competitive abilities should be excluded by more efficient competitors; yet, they generally remain as rare species. Here, we describe the positive and ... -
Resilience to drought in a dry forest: insights from demographic rates
(Elsevier, 2017-04)Concern is rising on whether forest function and structure will recover from drought-related impacts, which are expected to increase under global warming. Understanding demographic mechanisms underlying resilience (i.e. ... -
Uneven abundances determine nestedness in climbing plant-host interaction networks
(Elsevier, 2017)Nestedness is a common pattern in interaction networks. However, its ecological and evolutionary meaning is under debate. Evidence shows that nestedness in mutualistic networks may be just a consequence of the species–abundance ...
