Mapping multi-dimensional variability in water stress strategies across tempera...
Liu, Daijun; Esquivel-Muelbert, Adriane; Acil, Nezha; Astigarraga, Julen; Cienciala, Emil; Fridman, Jonas; Kunstler, Georges; Matthews, Thomas J.Increasing water stress is emerging as a global phenomenon, and is anticipated to have a marked impact on forest function. The role of tree functional strategies is pivotal in regulating forest fitness and their ability to cope with water stress. However, how the functional strategies found at the tree or species level scale up to characterise forest communities and their variation across regions is not yet wel...
Regional invasion history and land use shape the prevalence of non‐native speci...
Liu, Daijun; Essl, Franz; Lenzner, Bernd; Moser, Dietmar; Semenchuk, Philipp; Blackburn, Tim M.; Cassey, Phillip; Biancolini, Dino; Capinha, CésarThe ecological impact of non-native species arises from their establishment in local assemblages. However, the rates of non-native spread in new regions and their determinants have not been comprehensively studied. Here, we combined global databases documenting the occurrence of non-native species and residence of non-native birds, mammals, and vascular plants at regional and local scales to describe how the li...
The impact of land use on non-native species incidence and number in local asse...
Liu, Daijun; Semenchuk, Philipp; Essl, Franz; Lenzner, Bernd; Moser, Dietmar; Blackburn, Tim M.; Cassey, Phillip; Biancolini, Dino; Capinha, CésarWhile the regional distribution of non-native species is increasingly well documented for some taxa, global analyses of non-native species in local assemblages are still missing. Here, we use a worldwide collection of assemblages from five taxa - ants, birds, mammals, spiders and vascular plants - to assess whether the incidence, frequency and proportions of naturalised nonnative species depend on type and inte...
