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

This study investigates how species diversity affects ecological forecasts under constant and declining light conditions, finding mixed evidence of an interactive effect on forecast accuracy.

This study investigates how species environmental responses affect ecosystem stability using microcosm experiments and shows that lower imbalance, through asynchrony or population stability, increases temporal stability.

The paper experiments with ciliate communities to show that modifier species affect predator-prey interactions, altering trophic interaction strength and dynamics.

This study develops a framework to discover causal links in social-ecological systems using literature and data, finding consistent negative links between global change and biodiversity-ecosystem function.

The paper tests how bottom-up and top-down controls affect dispersal across species and shows their impacts on community dynamics.

Bemovi is a software tool for automated video analysis of microbial behavior and morphology, enabling trait measurement and species classification in multi-species communities.

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.
