Scaling up biodiversity ecosystem functioning relationships: the role of environmental heterogeneity in space and time

This study uses a Lotka-Volterra model to show that biodiversity required for ecosystem functioning increases with spatial or temporal scale, especially when environmental autocorrelation is low.

Habitat fragmentation and food security in crop pollination systems

This study models how habitat fragmentation affects crop yields through pollination, showing that biodiversity and landscape structure are critical for stable food production.

Fingerprints of high-dimensional coexistence in complex ecosystems

This study explores high-dimensional coexistence in ecosystems using grassland biodiversity data, showing that biodiversity arises from collective organization rather than individual species interactions.

Reconciling biodiversity conservation, food production and farmers’ demand

The paper models how landscape composition affects biodiversity and crop production, finding intermediate semi-natural habitat levels can balance stakeholder demands.

Trade-offs in provisioning and stability of multiple ecosystem services in agroecosystems

The paper develops a model to study trade-offs and synergies in ecosystem services in agroecosystems, showing how landscape composition affects service stability and crop production.

Foresight Is Required To Enforce Sustainability Under Time-Delayed Biodiversity Loss

The paper models how time-delayed biodiversity loss affects sustainability by showing that social pressure and ecological feedbacks determine system stability and regime shifts.

Environmental responses, not species interactions, determine synchrony of dominant species in semiarid grasslands

The paper investigates factors determining synchrony in semiarid grassland species, finding environmental responses drive synchrony more than interactions or stochasticity.
