Contemporary rates of biodiversity decline emphasize the need for reliable ecological
forecasting, but current methods vary in their ability to predict the declines of real-world …

The five most pervasive anthropogenic threats to biodiversity are over-exploitation, habitat
changes, climate change, invasive species, and pollution. Since all of these threats can …

Ecosystem disturbance is increasing in extent, severity and frequency across the globe. To
date, research has largely focussed on the impacts of disturbance on animal population …

Inferring the functional shape of ecological and evolutionary processes from time‐series
data can be challenging because processes are often not describable with simple …

Predicting population responses to environmental change is an ongoing challenge in
ecology. Studies investigating the links between fitness-related phenotypic traits and …

Natural populations are increasingly threatened with collapse at the hands of anthropogenic
effects. Predicting population collapse with the help of generic early warning signals (EWS) …

Heterogeneity among individuals influences the life‐history trajectories we observe at the
population level because viability selection, selective immigration and emigration …

Dissecting joint micro-evolutionary and plastic responses to environmental perturbations
requires quantifying interacting components of genetic and environmental variation …

The discipline of ecology seeks to understand how ecosystems, communities, and
populations are regulated. A ubiquitous mechanism of population regulation of consumers is …

Environmental change can impact the stability of ecological systems and cause rapid
declines in populations. Abundance‐based early warning signals have been shown to …
