While numerous studies collect telemetry data on animals, the focus is typically on the period when animals are alive, even though there is important information that could be gleaned about mortality risk. We introduce a thinned spatial point process (SPP) modelling framework that couples relative abundance and space use with a mortality process to formally treat the occurrence of mortality events across the landscape as a spatial process. We show how this model can be embedded in a hierarchical statistical framework and fit to telemetry data to make inferences about how spatial covariates drive both space use and mortality risk. We apply the method to two data sets to study the effects of roads and habitat on spatially explicit mortality risk: (1) VHF telemetry data collected for willow ptarmigan in Alaska, and (2) hourly GPS telemetry data collected for black bears in Colorado. These case studies demonstrate the applicability of this method for different species and data types, making it broadly useful in enabling inferences about the mechanisms influencing animal survival and spatial population processes while formally treating survival as a spatial process, especially as the development and implementation of joint analyses continue to progress.\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":161,"journal":{"name":"Ecology Letters","volume":"28 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":7.6,"publicationDate":"2025-03-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143530406","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Endophyte colonisation increased both constitutive- and induced poplar defences. Generalist Lymantria dispar larvae preferred and performed better on uninfected over endophyte-infected poplar leaves, most likely due to higher concentrations of salicinoids in endophyte-inoculated leaves and the endophyte-produced alkaloid stachydrine. Under field conditions, the endophytic fungus shapes insect community assembly i. a. attracting aphids, which can excrete stachydrine. Our results show that endophytic fungi play a crucial role in the defence against insects from different feeding guilds and thereby structuring insect communities.","PeriodicalId":161,"journal":{"name":"Ecology Letters","volume":"28 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":7.6,"publicationDate":"2025-02-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/ele.70007","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143490054","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, concomitant plant functional changes in agroecosystems, especially at large scales, have been seldom characterised. Here, we used a standardised yearly monitoring of > 400 agricultural field margins in France to assess the temporal response of vegetation diversity and functional traits to variations in climate and intensity of agricultural practices (herbicides, fertilisation and mowing) between 2013 and 2021. We observed clear temporal trends of increasing warming and aridity, but trends towards agricultural extensification were weak or nonsignificant. Our results showed functional changes in plant communities over time, driven mostly by climate change and suggested selective forces opposing climate change to agricultural intensification. This translated as a temporal decline of competitive and ruderal species in favour of stress-tolerant species, putting plant communities in agroecosystems in a difficult position to escape both climate and agricultural pressures at the same time.","PeriodicalId":161,"journal":{"name":"Ecology Letters","volume":"28 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":7.6,"publicationDate":"2025-02-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/ele.70030","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143490023","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Decades of work exploring how environmental stochasticity influences population dynamics have highlighted the ability of some natural populations to limit the negative effects of environmental stochasticity, one of the strategies being demographic buffering. Whilst various methods exist to quantify demographic buffering, we still do not know which environmental components and demographic mechanisms are most responsible for the demographic buffering observed in natural populations. Here, we introduce a framework to explore the relative impacts of environmental components (i.e., temporal autocorrelation and variance in demographic rates) on demographic buffering and the demographic mechanisms that underly these impacts (i.e., population structure and demographic rates). Using integral projection models, we show how demographic buffering is more sensitive to environmental variance relative to environmental autocorrelation.

However, the notion that environmental variability has shaped the distribution of life history traits across large spatial and taxonomic scales has gone largely untested using empirical data. Synthesising a collection of data resources on global climate, species traits, and species ranges, we quantified the role that environmental variability over time has played in shaping pace of life across the world's non-migratory, non-marine bird species (N = 7477). In support of existing theory, we found that species that experience high inter-annual temperature variability tended to have a slower pace of life, while the opposite was true for high intra-annual temperature variability. The effect of precipitation variability was less pronounced and more uncertain. These observed patterns were apparent despite the vastly different ecologies of our study species and evidence of strong phylogenetic constraint. Additionally, we highlight the importance of contextualising rates of environmental change in terms of the historical variability of environmental systems and species' pace of life. Species experiencing higher rates of relative environmental change, in terms of standard deviations per generation, may be most susceptible to climate change.","PeriodicalId":161,"journal":{"name":"Ecology Letters","volume":"28 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":7.6,"publicationDate":"2025-02-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/ele.70077","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143481491","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using movement data from 3270 individually-marked fish representing nine cohorts of coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) in California, we show that bimodal intrapopulation variation in the timing of juvenile down-migration from their natal habitat and subsequent residence in non-natal habitat affects growth, emigration timing, and the abundance and stability of adult returns. Non-natal fish (early down-migrants) exhibited more variable growth and more variable but earlier emigration to the estuary than natal fish (late down-migrants). While natal rearing was more common, non-natal fish were overrepresented among adult returns, and total returns were 1.4 times more stable than natal returns alone. Our results demonstrate that variation in migratory behaviour bolsters population stability. However, non-natal rearing is reduced in low water years, suggesting that drought exacerbates population instability by reducing critical intrapopulation variation.","PeriodicalId":161,"journal":{"name":"Ecology Letters","volume":"28 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":7.6,"publicationDate":"2025-02-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/ele.70081","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143475339","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We fuse fluid dynamics, telemetry, and attack data to reconstruct risk and energy landscapes traversed by migrating juvenile salmon and their predators. We find that migrants primarily use midriver microhabitats that facilitate migration at night. During daylight, predators become more aggressive in the midriver, and prey reduce midriver use in favour of nearshore microhabitats, resulting in increased energy expenditure and decreased migration efficiency. Predators attack most when migrants are not prioritising threat avoidance and during ephemeral periods of low lighting. Our findings suggest that predator–prey interactions result from an interplay between landscapes of fear and energy, which can determine the degree to which predators affect prey through mortality or fear.\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":161,"journal":{"name":"Ecology Letters","volume":"28 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":7.6,"publicationDate":"2025-02-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143475338","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
