Heterogeneity is key to supporting forest-dweller butterflies Ambarlı, Didem (2024-01-01) Heterogeneity is key to supporting forest-dweller butterflies. Worldwide, forests are considered biodiversity hotspots. Butterflies are among the surrogate species for forest biodiversity yet in many parts of the world, li...
Insect decline in forests depends on species’ traits and may be mitigated by management Staab, Michael; Gossner, Martin M.; Simons, Nadja K.; Achury, Rafael; Ambarlı, Didem; Bae, Soyeon; Schall, Peter; Weisser, Wolfgang W.; Blüthgen, Nico (2023-12-01) Insects are declining, but the underlying drivers and differences in responses between species are still largely unclear. Despite the importance of forests, insect trends therein have received little attention. Using 10 ye...
Drivers of community assembly change during succession in wood-decomposing beetle communities Seibold, Sebastian; Weisser, Wolfgang W.; Ambarlı, Didem; Gossner, Martin M.; Mori, Akira S.; Cadotte, Marc W.; Hagge, Jonas; Baessler, Claus; Thorn, Simon (2023-05-01) The patterns of successional change of decomposer communities is unique in that resource availability predictably decreases as decomposition proceeds. Saproxylic (i.e. deadwood-dependent) beetles are a highly diverse and f...
Reduction of invertebrate herbivory by land use is only partly explained by changes in plant and insect characteristics Neff, Felix; Prati, Daniel; Achury, Rafael; Ambarlı, Didem; Bolliger, Ralph; Braendle, Martin; Freitag, Martin; Hoelzel, Norbert; Kleinebecker, Till; Knecht, Arturo; Schaefer, Deborah; Schall, Peter; Seibold, Sebastian; Staab, Michael; Weisser, Wolfgang W.; Pellissier, Loic; Gossner, Martin M. (2023-05-01) Invertebrate herbivory is a crucial process contributing to the cycling of nutrients and energy in terrestrial ecosystems. While the function of herbivory can decrease with land-use intensification, the underlying mechanis...
Forest management affects saproxylic beetles through tree species composition and canopy cover Edelmann, Pascal; Ambarlı, Didem; Gossner, Martin M.; Schall, Peter; Ammer, Christian; Wende, Beate; Schulze, Ernst-Detlef; Weisser, Wolfgang W.; Seibold, Sebastian (2022-11-01) Forest management has been shown to affect biodiversity, but the effects vary among taxa and studies. Due to their host-tree preferences, many saproxylic, i.e. deadwood-dependent, beetle species are likely affected by fore...
Hierarchical trait filtering at different spatial scales determines beetle assemblages in deadwood Neff, Felix; Hagge, Jonas; Achury, Rafael; Ambarlı, Didem; Ammer, Christian; Schall, Peter; Seibold, Sebastian; Staab, Michael; Weisser, Wolfgang W.; Gossner, Martin M. (2022-10-01) Environmental filters-including those resulting from biotic interactions-play a crucial role during the assembly of ecological communities. The importance of scale has thereby been acknowledged but filters at different sca...
Do non-native and dominant native species carry a similar risk of invasiveness? A case study for plants in Turkey Yazlik, Ayşe; Ambarlı, Didem (2022-10-01) Most risk analysis studies in invasion biology have focused on the invasiveness of non-native species, even though some native species also can pose a high risk to the environment and human well-being. This is especially t...
Has Endangered Anatolian Chamois a Future at Lesser Caucasus Alpine Grasslands? Ambarli, Hüseyin; Ambarlı, Didem (2022-04-19) Anatolian chamois (Rupicapra rupicapra asiatica) is the onlyendangered chamois subspecies and lonely distributed at Alpinegrasslands in northeastern Turkey and along the border ofGeorgia. There have been extremely limited ...
A PRELIMINARY MAP OF STEPPES IN TURKEY USE OF DIGITAL MAPS OF FORESTRY AND CORINE TO GENERATE THE MAP OF STEPPES IN TURKEY Zeydanlı, Uğur; Ambarlı, Didem; Demirbaş Çağlayan, Semiha (2022-04-01)
Disentangling the importance of space and host tree for the beta-diversity of beetles, fungi, and bacteria: Lessons from a large dead-wood experiment Rieker, Daniel; Krah, Franz-S.; Gossner, Martin M.; Uhl, Britta; Ambarlı, Didem; Baber, Kristin; Buscot, François; Hofrichter, Martin; Hoppe, Björn; Kahl, Tiemo; Kellner, Harald; Moll, Julia; Purahong, Witoon; Seibold, Sebastian; Weisser, Wolfgang W.; Bässler, Claus (2022-04-01) © 2022 Elsevier LtdForestry in Europe changed the tree species composition and reduced dead-wood amount and heterogeneity, and therefore negatively affected saproxylic diversity. Efficient conservation requires knowledge a...
