TL;DR: An analysis of global forest cover is conducted to reveal that 70% of remaining forest is within 1 km of the forest’s edge, subject to the degrading effects of fragmentation, indicating an urgent need for conservation and restoration measures to improve landscape connectivity.

TL;DR: Testing the hypothesis that herbaceous plant species losses caused by eutrophication may be offset by increased light availability due to herbivory demonstrates that nutrients and herbivores can serve as counteracting forces to control local plant diversity through light limitation, independent of site productivity, soil nitrogen, herbivore type and climate.
Journal ArticleDOI
The restoration of biodiversity: Where has research been and where does it need to go?
TL;DR: It is suggested that the high level of variation seen in restoration outcomes might be explained, at least in part, by the contingencies placed on site-level restoration by landscape and historical factors and presented a number of avenues for future research to address these often ignored linkages in the biodiversity restoration model.
Journal ArticleDOI
Landscape connectivity promotes plant biodiversity spillover into non-target habitats
TL;DR: By extending economically driven spillover concepts from marine fisheries and crop pollination systems, it is shown how reconnecting landscapes amplifies biodiversity conservation both within and beyond reserve borders.
