This study examines how the order of species extinction affects community composition in competitive ecosystems, finding that inverse priority effects are more common in species-rich communities with strong competition.

This paper develops a computational pipeline to construct community assembly graphs from Lotka-Volterra models, showing how competition and mutualism shape assembly dynamics and cycles.

This paper applies Modern Coexistence Theory to analyze community disassembly by identifying when and why secondary extinctions occur through invasion growth rates and community disassembly graphs.

This study models how competition-colonization tradeoffs between bacterial species on a dynamic coral host influence coexistence outcomes.
