Journal ArticleDOI
Species abundance distributions: moving beyond single prediction theories to integration within an ecological framework
Brian J. McGill,Rampal S. Etienne,John S. Gray,David Alonso,Marti J. Anderson,Habtamu Kassa Benecha,Maria Dornelas,Brian J. Enquist,Jessica L. Green,Fangliang He,Allen H. Hurlbert,Anne E.

TL;DR: Theoretical, empirical and statistical developments in the study of Species abundance distributions are reviewed and it is optimistic that SADs can provide significant insights into basic and applied ecological science.
Journal ArticleDOI
Assemblage Time Series Reveal Biodiversity Change but Not Systematic Loss
Maria Dornelas,Nicholas J. Gotelli,Brian J. McGill,Hideyasu Shimadzu,Hideyasu Shimadzu,Faye Moyes,Caya Sievers,Anne E. Magurran +7 more
TL;DR: This work analyzes 100 time series from biomes across Earth to ask how diversity within assemblages is changing through time and detects systematic loss of α diversity, but community composition changed systematically through time, in excess of predictions from null models.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fifteen forms of biodiversity trend in the Anthropocene
TL;DR: It is argued that the understanding of biodiversity trends in the Anthropocene is impeded by a failure to consider different types of biodiversity measured at different spatial scales, and it is proposed that ecologists should recognize and assess 15 distinct categories of biodiversity trend.
Journal ArticleDOI
The geography of biodiversity change in marine and terrestrial assemblages.

Thompson,Mark Vellend,Conor Waldock,Maria Dornelas +24 more
TL;DR: Examining spatial variation in species richness and composition change using more than 50,000 biodiversity time series from 239 studies found clear geographic variation in biodiversity change, suggesting that biodiversity change may be spatially structured.
Journal ArticleDOI
