Using citizen science data for predicting the timing of ecological phenomena ac...
Capinha, César; Ceia-Hasse, Ana; de-Miguel, Sergio; Vila-Viçosa, Carlos; Porto, Miguel; Jarić, Ivan; Tiago, Patricia; Fernández, Néstor; Valdez, JoseThe scarcity of long-term observational data has limited the use of statistical or machine-learning techniques for predicting intraannual ecological variation. However, time-stamped citizen-science observation records, supported by media data such as photographs, are increasingly available. In the present article, we present a novel framework based on the concept of relative phenological niche, using machine-le...

Positive biodiversity-productivity relationship predominant in global forests
Liang, Jingjing; Crowther, Thomas W; Picard, Nicolas; Wiser, Susan; Zhou, Mo; Alberti, Giorgio; Schulze, Ernst-Detlef; McGuire, A David; Bozzato, FabioThe biodiversity-productivity relationship (BPR) is foundational to our understanding of the global extinction crisis and its impacts on ecosystem functioning. Understanding BPR is critical for the accurate valuation and effective conservation of biodiversity. Using ground-sourced data from 777,126 permanent plots, spanning 44 countries and most terrestrial biomes, we reveal a globally consistent positive conca...
