Passive acoustic monitoring provides a fresh perspective on fundamental ecological questions

Samuel R. P. -J. Ross et al.

Summary: Passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) is an important tool in applied ecology, conservation, and biodiversity monitoring, but its potential contribution to fundamental ecology is often overlooked. This article explores the most promising directions for using PAM to address long-standing fundamental questions in ecology. Overall, it shows how ecologists can harness the power of PAM to contribute to fundamental ecological understanding.

Response diversity as a sustainability strategy

Brian Walker et al.

Summary: Financial advisers suggest diversifying investment portfolios to adapt to market fluctuations, and similarly, nature has diversified species to maintain ecosystem function. However, in areas such as urban planning, public health, transportation, and food production, this diversity seems overlooked. As we enter a period of unprecedented turbulence, it is important to actively design and manage response diversity. This Perspective discusses what response diversity is, how it can be expressed, enhanced, and lost, and emphasizes the need to strengthen diverse options for responding to disruptions.

How to measure response diversity

Samuel R. P. -J. Ross et al.

Summary: The insurance effect of biodiversity, which refers to the stabilizing role of diversity in ecosystem properties, is supported by the variation in organismal responses to the environment. This variation, known as response diversity, is a crucial factor in ecological stability. This review article presents a methodological framework for quantifying response diversity from experimental and/or observational data, allowing for practical application in various settings. By capturing subtle variations in environmental responses and considering environment dependencies, this approach provides a new perspective for testing the relationship between diversity and stability and can be used for mapping, monitoring, and conserving biodiversity.

Response trait diversity and species asynchrony underlie the diversity-stability relationship in Romanian bird communities

Hannah J. White et al.

Summary: This study investigates the diversity-stability relationship in bird communities and finds that response trait diversity promotes compositional variability and affects functional variability through species asynchrony. In turn, functional variability impacts the temporal stability of effect trait diversity. The study emphasizes the importance of integrating response and effect trait frameworks into studies of community stability for understanding biodiversity change and making conservation decisions.

Limits to the accurate and generalizable use of soundscapes to monitor biodiversity

Sarab S. Sethi et al.

Summary: Though eco-acoustic monitoring has potential for delivering biodiversity insights on large scales, existing analytical approaches behave unpredictably across different studies. Our research showed that neither univariate indices nor machine learning models were able to predict species richness across datasets, but changes in soundscapes consistently indicated changes in avian communities. Therefore, soundscape monitoring should be used cautiously and in conjunction with more reliable in-person ecological surveys.

Ecological mechanisms underlying aridity thresholds in global drylands

Miguel Berdugo et al.

Summary: With ongoing climate change, the probability of exceeding aridity thresholds in drylands and experiencing abrupt ecosystem changes is higher than ever. By identifying different mechanisms causing aridity thresholds and potential amplification mechanisms, we can develop specific hypotheses to bridge knowledge gaps and focus on monitoring and adapting to abrupt ecosystem changes in global drylands.

Predators mitigate the destabilising effects of heatwaves on multitrophic stream communities

Samuel R. P. -J. Ross et al.

Summary: The research shows that the loss of predator species can interact with heatwaves to moderate the compositional stability of ecosystems. Heatwaves homogenize algal communities in space, but only when predators are absent. The presence of predators can help to buffer the impacts of heatwaves, underscoring the importance of conserving trophic structure and how species extinctions can amplify the effects of climate change and extreme events.

Illuminating the intrinsic and extrinsic drivers of ecological stability across scales

Samuel R. P. -J. Ross et al.

Summary: Understanding of ecological stability is based on assumptions of scale, which limit the generalizable and mechanistic understanding of stability under global environmental change. Moving towards a multiscale approach allows for better understanding of the intrinsic and extrinsic drivers of ecological stability, and highlights the confounding effect of scale on the observation of ecological dynamics.

Summary: This study demonstrates the significant impact of beta diversity on ecosystem stability, showing that it contributes to maintaining productivity stability at larger spatial scales. The stabilizing effects of both alpha and beta diversity lead to a positive diversity-stability relationship at the landscape scale, emphasizing the importance of conserving biodiversity at multiple spatial scales to maintain ecosystem functions and services.

Conserving intraspecific variation for nature's contributions to people

Summary: The rapid loss of intraspecific variation poses a hidden biodiversity crisis, yet it is often overlooked in biodiversity assessments. Intraspecific variation plays a crucial role in supporting ecosystem functions and nature's contributions to people. Collaborative research and new genomic tools are needed to further explore and conserve the value of intraspecific variation.

Species richness stabilizes productivity via asynchrony and drought-tolerance diversity in a large-scale tree biodiversity experiment

Florian Schnabel et al.

Summary: Increasing tree species richness improves forest community stability by enhancing asynchrony among species, buffering the community against stress-related productivity declines. This stability is positively associated with differences in stomatal control and resistance-acquisition strategies among species, highlighting the importance of diverse, mixed-species forests for climate change adaptation.

Assessing the fire resilience of the savanna tree component through a functional approache

Monize Altomare et al.

Summary: Changes in fire regimes in savannas can negatively impact resilience, with burned plots showing smaller aboveground biomass, higher functional diversity of vegetative traits, and lower functional diversity of reproductive traits. Periodic fires can maintain tree biodiversity in savannas, but may also increase dominance of species with less specialized reproductive traits. Burned plots had slightly lower functional redundancy but similar functional response diversity compared to unburned plots.

Diversity of response and effect traits provides complementary information about avian community dynamics linked to ecological function

Lisbeth A. Hordley et al.

Summary: Functional diversity metrics based on trait characteristics of British bird species were used to assess the relationship between functional diversity and community abundance stability. The study found a correlation between functional diversity and stability in seed dispersers when calculated using response traits, but a negative relationship when calculated using effect traits. Combining all traits showed inconsistent results, with reduced stability in insectivores but greater stability in seed dispersers.

Universal scaling of robustness of ecosystem services to species loss

Samuel R. P-J Ross et al.

Summary: The study shows that the responses of ecosystem services to species losses are context-dependent and that there are universal drivers that define the network fragility, which can predict the robustness of empirical ecosystem services. It provides insights into how species, functional traits, and links between them determine the vulnerability of ecosystem service supply to biodiversity loss.
