TL;DR: A unified framework for biological invasions is proposed that reconciles and integrates the key features of the most commonly used invasion frameworks into a single conceptual model that can be applied to all human-mediated invasions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Are treelines advancing? A global meta‐analysis of treeline response to climate warming
TL;DR: Diffuse treelines may be more responsive to warming because they are more strongly growth limited, whereas other treeline forms may be subject to additional constraints.
Journal ArticleDOI
Avian extinction and mammalian introductions on oceanic islands.
TL;DR: It is shown that the probability that a bird species has been extirpated from each of 220 oceanic islands is positively correlated with the number of exotic predatory mammal species established on those islands after European colonization and that the effect of these predators is greater on island endemic species.
Journal ArticleDOI
Big brains, enhanced cognition, and response of birds to novel environments.
TL;DR: It is confirmed that avian species with larger brains, relative to their body mass, tend to be more successful at establishing themselves in novel environments and provided evidence that larger brains help birds respond to novel conditions by enhancing their innovation propensity rather than indirectly through noncognitive mechanisms.
An evaluation of errors in tree age estimates based on increment cores in kahikatea (dacrycarpus dacrydioides).
TL;DR: Duncan et al. as mentioned in this paper evaluated errors in tree age estimates based on increment cores in kahikatea (Dacrycarpus dacrydioides).
