This study shows fuel treatments reduce wildfire impacts but do not restore fire-adapted forests, as benefits for fire-intolerant trees fade within nine years without seedling shifts.

The paper quantifies how species diversity affects irreducible dynamical heterogeneity in ecological communities near equilibrium.

The paper shows that species interactions are strongly constrained by internal factors despite large climatic variability in annual plants.

This paper introduces a new method called covariance criteria to rigorously test ecological models by analyzing covariance relationships between observable quantities, demonstrating its effectiveness across multiple ecological challenges.

This paper introduces label invariance as a principle for ecological models, showing it ensures consistency in dynamics across population groupings and aids in model selection and evaluation.

This study introduces a framework to quantify irreversibility in ecological systems using non-equilibrium statistical physics, validated across diverse ecological systems.
