Motivation Here, we make available a second version of the BioTIME database, which compiles records of abundance estimates for species in sample events of ecological assemblages through time. The updated version expands version 1.0 of the database by doubling the number of studies and includes substantial additional curation to the taxonomic accuracy of the records, as well as the metadata. Moreover, we now provide an R packag...
Motivation The BioTIME database contains raw data on species identities and abundances in ecological assemblages through time. These data enable users to calculate temporal trends in biodiversity within and amongst assemblages using a broad range of metrics. BioTIME is being developed as a community‐led open‐source database of biodiversity time series. Our goal is to accelerate and facilitate quantitative analysis of temporal...
Aim Mediterranean terrestrial ecosystems serve as reference laboratories for the investigation of global change because of their transitional climate, the high spatiotemporal variability of their environmental conditions, a rich and unique biodiversity and a wide range of socio‐economic conditions. As scientific development and environmental pressures increase, it is increasingly necessary to evaluate recent progress and to ch...
A medium‐term, stochastic forecast model to support sustainable, mixed fisheries management in the Mediterranean Sea aNARA Subscribed
A medium‐term (10 year) stochastic forecast model is developed and presented for mixed fisheries that can provide estimations of age‐specific parameters for a maximum of 10 stocks and 10 fisheries. Designed to support fishery managers dealing with complex, multi‐annual management plans, the model can be used to quantitatively test the consequences of various stock‐specific and fishery‐specific decisions, using non‐equilibrium...
Aim Our aim was to map the climate dependence of tree species distributions (probability of occurrence) and forest growth (net primary productivity) by comparing the congruence and incongruence between correlative and process‐based modelling approaches. Location Iberian Peninsula, south‐western Europe. Methods We used forest inventory data for three widespread tree species ( Quercus ilex , Pinus halepensis and Pinus sylvestris...
Female reproductive biology of the bluemouth Helicolenus dactylopterus dactylopterus : spawning and fecundityNARA Subscribed
The bluemouth Helicolenus dactylopterus dactylopterus is a zygoparous species that spawns multiple batches of embryos enclosed within a gelatinous matrix. Oocyte development is asynchronous, and the recruitment of secondary growth oocytes occurs continuously during the developing phase, but stops before the start of the first spawning ( i.e. fecundity is determinate). The number of developing oocytes can be estimated as a func...
Plant trait information is essential for understanding plant evolution, vegetation dynamics, and vegetation responses to disturbance and management. Furthermore, in Mediterranean ecosystems, changes in fire regime may be more relevant than direct changes in climatic conditions, making the knowledge of fire‐related traits especially important. Thus the purpose of this data set was to compile the most updated and comprehensive i...
