Spatial versus spatio-temporal approaches for studying metacommunities: a multi-taxon analysis in Mediterranean and tropical temporary ponds

Author(s): Gálvez Á; Peres-Neto PR; Castillo-Escrivà A; Bonilla F; Camacho A; García-Roger EM; Iepure S; Miralles J; Monrós JS; Olmo C; Picazo A; Rojo ...

Prior research on metacommunities has largely focused on snapshot surveys, often overlooking temporal dynamics. In this study, our aim was to compare the insights obtained from metacommunity analys ...

Connectivity of stormwater ponds impacts Odonata abundance and species richness

Author(s): Richmond IC; Perron MC; Boyle SP; Pick FR;

Context: The successful dispersal of an animal depends, partly, on landscape connectivity. Urbanization poses risks to dispersal activities by increasing hostile land cover types. Objectives: We investigated how connectivity of urban ponds impacted Odonata ...

Pushed to the edge: Spatial sorting can slow down invasions

Author(s): Shaw AK; Lutscher F; Popovic L;

Our ability to understand population spread dynamics is complicated by rapid evolution, which renders simple ecological models insufficient. If dispersal ability evolves, more highly dispersive individuals may arrive at the population edge than less dispers ...

Inconsistent response of taxonomic groups to space and environment in mediterranean and tropical pond metacommunities

Author(s): Gálvez Á; Peres-Neto PR; Castillo-Escrivà A; Bonilla F; Camacho A; García-Roger EM; Iepure S; Miralles-Lorenzo J; Monrós JS; Olmo C; Picazo ...

The metacommunity concept provides a theoretical framework that aims at explaining organism distributions by a combination of environmental filtering, dispersal, and drift. However, few works have ...

Joint intergroup aggression in female colobus monkeys (Colobus vellerosus) is associated with grooming bonds, male participation, and group size

Author(s): Wikberg EC; Gonzalez S; Rodriguez C; Sicotte P;

Cooperative home range defense is common in primates, despite a collective action problem that arises when group members benefit from winning the intergroup encounter regardless of whether they participate. The costs associated with this collective action p ...

Disturbance-induced emigration: an overlooked mechanism that reduces metapopulation extinction risk

Author(s): Mestre A; Barfield M; Peniston JH; Peres-Neto PR; Mesquita-Joanes F; Holt RD;

Emigration propensity (i.e., the tendency to leave undisturbed patches) is a key life-history trait of organisms in metapopulations with local extinctions and colonizations. Metapopulation models of dispersal evolution typically assume that patch disturbanc ...
