| Climate buffering effects of western Canadian boreal lakes: the effect of lake size and depth on shoreline and nearshore forests | ||
| Montag, 23. Juni 2025 | ||
| Context Lakes can provide thermal refugia effects by buffering shoreline and inland temperatures, potentially delaying forest transitions. However, this effect has not been quantified for the majority of boreal Canada lakes, which are often excluded in general circulation model predictions of climate, thus potentially underestimating the effects of lake-mediated buffering. Objectives Here, we quantify the effects of varying lake... | ||

| Efficiency of flower strips for bumblebee colonies depends on nesting habitat and interactions with semi-natural habitats and mass-flowering crops | ||
| Freitag, 20. Juni 2025 | ||
| Context Pollinator populations are generally sensitive to landscape fragmentation, but the contribution of habitat types at different area proportion to the development of bumblebee colonies at landscape scale is unclear. Objectives We contribute to this field of landscape ecological research by analysing how the area proportions of semi-natural habitats, flower strips and mass-flowering crops affect the density of bumblebee... | ||
| Towards transformative climate actions in landscape architecture | ||
| Freitag, 13. Juni 2025 | ||
| Context Transformative actions are required in the built environment if we are to avoid breaching planetary boundaries. To do so, climate actions within cities need to be coordinated across both adaptation and mitigation, and across knowledge boundaries. Landscape architects are well-positioned to drive climate actions through strong ecological underpinnings and creative design thinking. However, their capacity to support transformative climate actions is relatively unknown... | ||
| How landscape structure influences water-related ecosystem service flows | ||
| Freitag, 13. Juni 2025 | ||
| Context Landscape planning to optimize ecosystem service (ES) provision requires an integrated understanding of different components of a provision chain (supply, demand, flow). However, the effects of landscape structure on ES flows remain poorly understood. Objectives The objective is to assess how ES flows quantitatively respond to landscape structure. Methods We proposed a... | ||
| Revealing youth-perceived cultural ecosystem services for high-density urban green space management: a deep learning spatial analysis of social media photographs from central Beijing | ||
| Donnerstag, 12. Juni 2025 | ||
| Context In high-density urban areas, managing urban green spaces (UGSs) is challenging due to limited space. Young people in these environments often experience mental health issues, exacerbated by insufficient exposure to green spaces. UGSs provide cultural ecosystem services (CESs), crucial for enhancing mental well-being and landscape sustainability in general. Objectives Focusing on central Beijing, our study addresses three... | ||
| Road traffic has a consistent negative impact on breeding density of a wide range of bird species in different habitats | ||
| Mittwoch, 11. Juni 2025 | ||
| Context Road traffic has a major impact on the environment and numerous studies have shown how various species respond to road traffic. However, a clear picture based on large-scale studies of how complete species communities in different environments are affected by road traffic is lacking. Objectives We assessed the distance within which road traffic negatively impacts breeding bird densities and the extent to which effect... | ||
| Wade carefully: water parametrization in structural landscape connectivity modeling | ||
| Samstag, 07. Juni 2025 | ||
| Context Structural connectivity models provide critical insights on how movement potential varies across landscapes and can support decisions on where to prioritize land protection and restoration. Water is a common component of landscape models used to inform conservation strategies, but the impacts of water parameterization on model behavior are poorly understood. Objectives We assessed how various parameterization approaches... | ||
| Landscape context mediates the effect of pollinator garden enhancements on pollinator visitation and plant-pollinator interactions | ||
| Freitag, 06. Juni 2025 | ||
| Context Urbanization and associated habitat fragmentation and loss are leading factors contributing to the decline of pollinators, but may be ameliorated with gardens, green spaces, and other conservation efforts. However, there is limited research showing how pollinators respond to floral resource enhancements, and how landscape context mediates the conservation value of such enhancements. Objective Here we aimed to determine... | ||
| Five ways seascape ecology can help to achieve marine restoration goals | ||
| Mittwoch, 04. Juni 2025 | ||
| Context Marine restoration is increasingly recognized as a key activity to regenerate ecosystem integrity, safeguard biodiversity, and enable ocean sustainability. Global policies such as the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework include area-based targets to improve ecosystem integrity and connectivity. Achieving these targets requires scaling up restoration in ecologically and socially meaningful ways. Objectives The... | ||
| Hydrodynamics, elevation, and restoration history structure intertidal oyster recruitment | ||
| Freitag, 30. Mai 2025 | ||
| Context Reversing global declines of foundation species requires recovery of critical bottlenecks in population dynamics, particularly the recruitment of early life stages. Understanding the controls on recruitment can substantially improve restoration success. Objectives We investigated how geophysical conditions and restoration history determine recruitment in eastern oysters (Crassostrea virginica), a foundation species... | ||
| Habitat fragmentation impact on insect diversity: opposing forces at patch and landscape levels | ||
| Freitag, 30. Mai 2025 | ||
| Context Habitat loss is widely recognized as a major threat to biodiversity, but the effects of habitat fragmentation, whether positive or negative, remain controversial. It has been suggested that these effects vary depending on the spatial scale studied (patch vs. landscape) and the biodiversity metric considered (α-, β-, or γ-diversity). Objectives We aimed to test the contrasting effects of habitat fragmentation on insect... | ||
| Multi-scale effects of topography and landscape pattern on riverine nitrogen and phosphorus nutrients in an agricultural watershed | ||
| Donnerstag, 29. Mai 2025 | ||
| Context The effects of natural topographic characteristics and land-use patterns on riverine nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) levels are complex and scale-dependent in agricultural watersheds. Quantifying the individual and interactive effects of different landscape categories and determining their spatial scale sensitivities is helpful to develop effective landscape planning to mitigate nonpoint source (NPS) pollution; however, these effects have not been clarified... | ||
| Local tree cover predicts mosquito species richness and disease vector presence in a tropical countryside landscape | ||
| Mittwoch, 28. Mai 2025 | ||
| Context Land use change and deforestation drive both biodiversity loss and zoonotic disease transmission in tropical countrysides. For mosquito communities that can include disease vectors, forest loss has been linked to reduced biodiversity and increased vector presence. The spatial scales at which land use and tree cover shape mosquito communities present a knowledge gap relevant to both biodiversity and public health. Objectives... | ||
| Manifesto for multidimensional ecological networks: a perspective to better account for the complexity of habitat loss and fragmentation | ||
| Dienstag, 27. Mai 2025 | ||
| Context Ecological networks (i.e. sets of connected natural habitats) emerged in the 1980s and have been implemented worldwide. They have been developed as a land-use planning tool that enables to ensure both habitat amount and landscape connectivity in response to ground based physical anthropogenic drivers (e.g. forest cuttings, roads, dams). Objective We wanted to highlight some gaps in this conception of habitat loss and fragmentation that led to... | ||
| The evolution of landscape ecology reflected in 100 books | ||

| The increasing role of drought as an inciting factor of bark beetle outbreaks can cause large-scale transformation of Central European forests | ||
| Freitag, 23. Mai 2025 | ||
| Context Historically, large-scale outbreaks of the European spruce bark beetle were initiated mainly by windthrows. However, after 2018, a severe drought triggered the hitherto largest bark beetle outbreak observed in Europe, signalling a major shift in the disturbance regime. Objectives Develop and test an approach that allows simulating this novel disturbance dynamics and evaluate landscape-scale compound impacts of wind- and... | ||
