TL;DR: It is shown that accounting for a few traits dramatically improves the understanding of the structure of ecological networks, and matching traits for resources and consumers, for example, fruit size and bill gape, are the most successful combinations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Species loss and secondary extinctions in simple and complex model communities
Anna Eklöf,Bo Ebenman +1 more
TL;DR: It is shown that complex communities are, on average, more resistant to species loss than simple communities: the number of secondary extinctions decreases with increasing connectance, however, complex Communities are more vulnerable to loss of top predators thansimple communities.
Journal ArticleDOI
Predicting the consequences of species loss using size-structured biodiversity approaches.
Ulrich Brose,Julia L. Blanchard,Anna Eklöf,Núria Galiana,Martin Hartvig,Martin Hartvig,Martin Hartvig,Myriam R. Hirt,Gregor Kalinkat,Gregor Kalinkat,Marie C. Nordström,Eoin J. O'Gorman,Björn C. Rall,Florian D. Schneider,Elisa Thébault,Ute Jacob +15 more
TL;DR: It is argued that it is crucial to take into account body size as a species trait when analysing the consequences of biodiversity loss for natural ecosystems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Trophically Unique Species Are Vulnerable to Cascading Extinction
TL;DR: Analysis of natural and model food webs show that secondary extinctions cause loss of trophic diversity greater than that expected from chance, a result that is robust to variation in food web structure, distribution of interactions strengths, functional response, and adaptive foraging.
Journal ArticleDOI
Operationalizing Network Theory for Ecosystem Service Assessments
Laura E. Dee,Stefano Allesina,Aletta Bonn,Anna Eklöf,Steven D. Gaines,Jes Hines,Ute Jacob,Eve McDonald-Madden,Hugh P. Possingham,Matthias Schröter,Ross M. Thompson +10 more
TL;DR: This work proposes a framework for how to use networks to assess how drivers and management actions will directly and indirectly alter ecosystem services.
