Avoid, tolerate, or escape? Native vegetation responses to invasion vary between functional groups
Biological invasions are one of the greatest threats to biodiversity and ecosystem functioning. However, the constraints imposed by the invaders on native organisms and their associated response, remain poorly...

Object-based characterization of vegetation heterogeneity with sentinel images proves efficient in a highly human-influenced National Park of Côte d’Ivoire
Forest monitoring requires more automated systems to analyze high ecosystem heterogeneity. The traditional pixel-based detection method has proven to be less and less effective. A novel change detection method...

How Do Deep Convolutional SDM Trained on Satellite Images Unravel Vegetation Ecology?
Species distribution models (SDM) assess and predict how species spatial distributions depend on the environment, due to species ecological preferences. These models are used in many different scenarios such ...

Deterministic processes drive functional and phylogenetic temporal changes of woody species in temperate forests in Northeast China
Deterministic processes drive functional and phylogenetic temporal changes of woody species in temperate forest, depending on successional stage and tree size classes. The dominant influential ...

Ecological and biogeographical drivers of freshwater green algae biodiversity: from local communities to large-scale species pools of desmids
Dispersal limitation, niche-based processes as well as historical legacies shape microbial biodiversity, but their respective influences remain unknown for many groups of microbes. We analysed metacommunity st...

A Deep Learning Approach to Species Distribution Modelling
Species distribution models (SDM) are widely used for ecological research and conservation purposes. Given a set of species occurrence, the aim is to infer its spatial distribution over a given territory. Beca...

Growth rings in tropical trees: role of functional traits, environment, and phylogeny
Subjective and anatomy-based quantitative indices of distinctness of growth rings in tropical trees were related to deciduousness, species maximum height, and also potentially to local topograp...
