Network structure of vertebrate scavenger assemblages at the global scale: driv...
Sebastián‐González, Esther; Morales‐Reyes, Zebensui; Botella, Francisco; Naves‐Alegre, Lara; Pérez‐García, Juan M.; Mateo-Tomás, PatriciaThe organization of ecological assemblages has important implications for ecosystem functioning, but little is known about how scavenger communities organize at the global scale. Here, we test four hypotheses on the factors affecting the network structure of terrestrial vertebrate scavenger assemblages and its implications on ecosystem functioning. We expect scavenger assemblages to be more nested (i.e. structu...
Innovative strategies for the elimination of viral hepatitis at a national leve...
