Above- and below-ground links mediated by arboreal ants and host tree modify soil aggregation scaling, infiltration, and chemistry

N. Medina, L. Schmitt, I. Perfecto, J. Vandermeer

This study examines how arboreal ant nesting affects soil properties like aggregation, infiltration, and chemistry through indirect interactions with host trees and ground ants.

Habitat edges affect tree diversity more than biomass regeneration in a reforested wet neotropical timber plantation

N. Medina, E. Capetz, A. Johnson, A. Mendoza, M. Villalobos

This study examines how distance to intact forest edges affects tree diversity and biomass in a reforested wet neotropical plantation, finding that diversity is more impacted by edge effects than biomass.

From Metapopulation to Metacommunity and the Complications of Community Structure

Z. Hajian-Forooshani, L. Schmitt, N. Medina, J. Vandermeer

The paper examines metacommunity dynamics by showing that migration can lead to predator extinction in tropical leaf litter communities, corroborating findings from temperate communities.
