Carcasses at Fixed Locations Host a Higher Diversity of Necrophilous Beetles
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)In contrast to other necro mass, such as leaves, deadwood, or dung, the drivers of insect biodiversity on carcasses are still incompletely understood. For vertebrate scavengers, a richer community was shown for randomly ... -
Factors influencing carrion communities are only partially consistent with those of deadwood necromass
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Research on decomposer communities has traditionally focused on plant litter or deadwood. Even though carrion forms highly nutrient-rich necromass that enhance ecosystem heterogeneity, the factors infuencing saprophytic ... -
Functional traits driving species role in the structure of terrestrial vertebrate scavenger networks
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Species assemblages often have a non-random nested organization, which in vertebrate scavenger (carrion-consuming) assemblages is thought to be driven by facilitation in competitive environments. However, not all scavenger ... -
Lack of Cascading Effects of Eurasian Lynx Predation on Roe Deer to Soil and Plant Nutrients
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)This study examines the extent to which above-ground trophic processes such as large carnivore predation on wild ungulates can cause cascading effects through the provision of carrion resources to below-ground ecosystem ...
