Journal ArticleDOI
Biodiversity at risk under future cropland expansion and intensification
Laura Kehoe,Laura Kehoe,Alfredo Romero-Muñoz,Ester Polaina,Lyndon Estes,Lyndon Estes,Holger Kreft,Tobias Kuemmerle +7 more
TL;DR: Considering rising agricultural demand, areas where timely land-use planning may proactively mitigate biodiversity loss are highlighted, to highlight areas at risk of high biodiversity loss across the entire option space of possible agricultural change.
Journal ArticleDOI
Economic use of plants is key to their naturalization success
Mark van Kleunen,Mark van Kleunen,Xinyi Xu,Qiang Yang,Noëlie Maurel,Zhijie Zhang,Wayne Dawson,Franz Essl,Holger Kreft,Jan Pergl,Petr Pyšek,Petr Pyšek,Patrick Weigelt,Dietmar Moser,Bernd Lenzner,Trevor S. Fristoe +15 more
TL;DR: This study illustrates that accounting for the intentional introduction of economic plants is key to unravelling drivers of plant naturalization, and shows that plant species of economic use are more likely to become naturalized than non-economic plants.
Journal ArticleDOI
What ' s on the horizon for macroecology?
Jan Beck,Liliana Ballesteros-Mejia,Carsten M. Buchmann,Jürgen Dengler,Susanne A. Fritz,Bernd Gruber,Christian Hof,Florian Jansen,Sonja Knapp,Holger Kreft,Anne-Kathrin Schneider,Marten Winter,Carsten F. Dormann +12 more
TL;DR: Scanning the horizon of macroecology, it is identified that more sophisticated methods are needed to account for the biases inherent to sampling at large scale and that Bayesian methods may be particularly suitable to address these challenges.
Journal ArticleDOI
Late Quaternary climate change shapes island biodiversity.
TL;DR: It is found that post-LGM changes in island characteristics have left a strong imprint on present diversity of endemic species, which is significantly higher on islands that were larger during the LGM and is mostly determined by present island characteristics.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Using the most comprehensive quantification of land-use change and associated bundles of ecosystem functions, services and economic benefits to date, it is shown that Indonesian smallholders predominantly choose farm portfolios with high economic productivity but low ecological value.
