Wild bee diversity is enhanced by experimental removal of timber harvest residue within intensively managed conifer forest

Creator:

Rivers, James W., Mathis, Codey L., Moldenke, Andrew R., and Betts, Matthew G.

Abstract:

The use of timber harvest residue as an energy source is thought to have environmental benefits relative to food-based crops, yet the ecological impact of this practice remains largely unknown. We assessed whether the abundance and diversity of wild bees (Apoidea) were influenced by the removal of harvest residue and...

Response to fragmentation by avian communities is mediated by species traits

Creator:

Valente, Jonathon J. and Betts, Matthew G.

Abstract:

Aim The hypothesis that habitat fragmentation negatively influences biodiversity stems from island biogeography and metapopulation theory which predict negative impacts of decreasing patch size on richness and distribution patterns. Empirical support of this idea is weak in terrestrial systems, though tests of fragmentation effects are typically confounded with landscape composition...
