The clock matters when we study pollination

This blog post is provided by Caio S. Ballarin and tells the #StoryBehindThePaper for the article, “Optimising daily sampling of plant–bee interaction networks”, which was recently published in the Journal of Animal Ecology. This study tracked plant-bee interaction networks throughout the day, revealing how interactions shift from dawn to dusk. They provide a framework to optimise sampling strategies that capture ecological network structure more accurately and … Continue reading The clock matters when we study pollination

Dung beetle-mammal dung interaction networks are resilient across a gradient of forest disturbance

This blog post is provided by Li Yuen Chiew and Eleanor M. Slade and tells the #StoryBehindThePaper for the paper “Tropical forest dung beetle-mammal dung interaction networks remain similar across an environmental disturbance gradient”, which was recently published in the Journal of Animal Ecology. Li Yuen Chiew: I am a conservation ecologist, whose research focuses on biodiversity conservation and ecosystem ecology, with a particular interest … Continue reading Dung beetle-mammal dung interaction networks are resilient across a gradient of forest disturbance
