Journal ArticleDOI
Making mistakes when predicting shifts in species range in response to global warming
Andrew J. Davis,Linda S. Jenkinson,John H. Lawton,Bryan Shorrocks,Simon N. Wood,Simon N. Wood +5 more
TL;DR: It is shown that dispersal and interactions, which are important elements of population dynamics, must be included in predictions of biotic responses to climate change.
Journal ArticleDOI
Insects in fragmented forests: a functional approach
TL;DR: A more focused, functional approach to the study of forest fragmentation is required to move beyond the description of pattern and to determine how changes in insect communities affect ecosystem processes in fragmented forests.
Journal ArticleDOI
Individualistic species responses invalidate simple physiological models of community dynamics under global environmental change
TL;DR: Current species distributions are no guide to what they might be under global climate change, since both dispersal and species interactions are missing from climate envelope models of range and abundance change, and their predictions are, at best, incomplete.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dung beetles as indicators of change in the forests of northern Borneo
Andrew J. Davis,Jeremy D. Holloway,Hans Huijbregts,Jan Krikken,Ashley H. Kirk-Spriggs,Stephen L. Sutton +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors reviewed the use of dung beetles as indicators of environmental change, highlighting the influence of natural forest dynamics on species distributions in primary forest and suggesting new ways in which this can be used to understand and interpret the effects of disturbance such as logging.
