Journal ArticleDOI
The metacommunity concept: a framework for multi-scale community ecology
Mathew A. Leibold,Marcel Holyoak,Nicolas Mouquet,Nicolas Mouquet,Priyanga Amarasekare,Jonathan M. Chase,Martha F. Hoopes,Robert D. Holt,Jonathan B. Shurin,Richard Law,David Tilman,Michel Loreau,Andrew Gonzalez +12 more
TL;DR: This framework is used to discuss why the metacommunity concept is useful in modifying existing ecological thinking and illustrate this with a number of both theoretical and empirical examples.
Journal ArticleDOI
Progress toward understanding the ecological impacts of nonnative species
TL;DR: 19 testable hypotheses that explain temporal and spatial variation in impact are identified and reviewed and highlight the importance of the functional ecology of the nonnative species and the structure, diversity, and evolutionary experience of the recipient community as general determinants of impact.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stabilizing effects in spatial parasitoid–host and predator–prey models: a review
TL;DR: Three mechanisms whereby limited dispersal of hosts and parasitoids combined with other features, such as spatial and temporal heterogeneity, can promote increased persistence and stability are identified.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanisms of coexistence in competitive metacommunities
TL;DR: A mathematical framework that allows for comparative analysis of spatial coexistence mechanisms is presented and it is shown that spatial variation in the expression of a life‐history trade‐off leads to a unique regional pattern that cannot be predicted by considering trade‐offs or source‐sink dynamics alone.
Journal ArticleDOI
Alternative stable states and regional community structure.
Jonathan B. Shurin,Priyanga Amarasekare,Jonathan M. Chase,Robert D. Holt,Martha F. Hoopes,Mathew A. Leibold +5 more
TL;DR: Biotic heterogeneity can lead to alternative stable landscapes or regional priority effects, while abiotic heterogeneity results in regional determinism, and broad environmental gradients in resource supply favor regional coexistence of species that exhibit local ASE.
