The paper tests how temperature and biodiversity affect the size-abundance relationship in protist communities, finding context-dependent shifts in the scaling slope.

The paper argues for using mechanistic eco-evolutionary models and novel inference techniques to improve understanding of community assembly processes from macroscopic patterns.

The paper introduces the ecological forecast horizon as a framework to assess the limits of ecological predictions across time, space, and phylogeny, using case studies to illustrate its applications and determinants.
