The separation of abiotic and biotic factors affecting populations and communities is an important step in understanding how climate change can influence ecological processes, but quantifying their relative contribution to community changes is a challenge. We assessed the effect of temperature and species interactions on the population dynamics of a forest bird community with a hierarchical dynami

Understanding how ecological communities assemble in relation to natural and human-induced environmental changes is critical, particularly for communities of pollinators that deliver essential ecosystem services. Despite widespread attention to interactions between functional traits and community responses to environmental changes, the importance of sensory traits has received little attention. To

As tariffs and other conventional barriers to trade have been substantially dismantled over the course of the past decades, the relative costs of inefficient trade procedures have risen and their trade distorting effects are gaining more attention from both policymakers and academics. The purpose of this study is to contribute to the emerging literature on the topic by turning the scope towards th

The purpose of this study was to understand how the proposed legislation to lower the age of criminal responsibility from 15 to 13 years can be understood in relation to the Convention on the Rights of the Child. We have used a qualitative method in the form of a document analysis. Our empirical material consisted of the draft of the legislation and relevant articles from the Convention on the Rig

In this paper, a revisit to the topic of electromagnetic scattering by a randomly oriented obstacle is made. The focus is on a general polarization state of the incident field. Specifically, the left and right circular polarizations are treated. We derive the analytic expressions of the scattering observables, such as the orientational averages of the extinction, scattering and absorption cross se

The interest in putting a price on carbon emissions is increasing in pace with the urgency of climate change. In this article we compare the adoption of one such policy instrument, carbon taxation, in the cases of Sweden and Mexico. We use a theoretical framework that focuses on economic and environmental factors influencing the policy process via distinct policy areas, as well as the mechanisms t

Labile carbon (C) inputs affect the soil carbon:nitrogen (C:N) ratio and microbial stoichiometric homeostasis, which control the intensity and direction of the priming effect (PE). Here, we clarified how soil microorganisms regulate enzyme production and PE to maintain the C:N stoichiometric balance. Specifically, we conducted an incubation experiment by adding 13C-labeled glucose to four long-ter

Agricultural landscapes have changed fast in Europe, which has led to steep declines in farmland biodiversity. While this has differentially impacted “farmland species”, some of these seem to be able to use alternative man-made open habitats in forests, such as forest clear-cuts and powerline rights-of-way. We investigated the use of clear-cuts by two historically declining farmland birds, the Yel

Despite a decade-long research history, there are still ongoing debates on the analysis of Object Shift in Mainland Scandinavian, and all syntactic and information-structural accounts have run into empirical and/or conceptual problems. We argue that this debate can be resolved by recognizing that OS is, in fact, a prosodic phenomenon. Our analysis builds on the observatioDespite a decade-long rese
