According to the stress gradient hypothesis (SGH), ecological interactions between
organisms shift positively as environmental stress increases. In the case of associational …

Understanding mechanisms that generate range limits is central to knowing why species are
found where they are and how they will respond to environmental change. There is growing …

The relative intensity of facilitative effect among coexisting plant species is frequently
affected by soil water and nutrient availability, such as nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) …

Competition, facilitation, and predation offer alternative explanations for successional
patterns of migratory herbivores. However, these interactions are difficult to measure …

Interspecific interactions can influence species' activity and movement patterns. In particular,
species may avoid or attract each other through reactive responses in space and/or time …

Spatial and temporal associations between sympatric species underpin biotic interactions,
structure ecological assemblages, and sustain ecosystem functioning and stability …

Mixed-species groups of birds, fishes and mammals have traditionally been described in
taxa-specific journals. However, mixed-species systems are actually more widely found …

Species interactions such as facilitation and predation influence food webs, yet it is unclear
how they are mediated by environmental gradients. Here we test the stress gradient …

Tibetan Buddhist monasteries are widely distributed throughout the Qinghai–Tibet Plateau
and are significant locations for human–wildlife coexistence. Given the significance of their …

Camera traps-remote cameras that capture images of passing wildlife-have become a
ubiquitous tool in ecology and conservation. Systematic camera trap surveys generate 'Big …
