Guimarães,David H. Hembry,Erica A. Newman,Erica A. Newman,Jens M. Olesen,Mathias M. Pires,Justin D. Yeakel,Justin D. Yeakel,Timothée Poisot,Timothée Poisot +20 more
TL;DR: An overview of tools that can be used to describe and compare the functional and dynamic roles of species based on their position in the network and the organization of their interactions as well as associated new methods to test the significance of these results are described.
Journal ArticleDOI
Maximum information entropy: a foundation for ecological theory
John Harte,Erica A. Newman +1 more
TL;DR: It is shown how MaxEnt can accurately predict patterns such as species-area relationships (SARs) and abundance distributions in macroecology and be a foundation for ecological theory.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The results indicate that (i) climatically more stable regions have harbored rare species and hence a large fraction of Earth’s plant species via reduced extinction risk but that (ii) climate change and human land use are now disproportionately impacting rare species.

TL;DR: A general overview to the field is provided, outlining both the intent of the different measures, their assumptions, and the contexts in which they can be used.

TL;DR: In this paper, a conservation spatial plan is proposed to minimize extinction risk in the tropics using data on 289 219 species and modeling two future greenhouse gas concentration pathways (RCP2.6 and 8.5) while varying the extent of terrestrial protected land and conserved areas.
