One view of pollination systems is that they tend toward specialization. This view is implicit
in many discussions of angiosperm evolution and plant—pollinator coevolution and in the …

Ecosystem services are critical to human survival; in selected cases, maintaining these
services provides a powerful argument for conserving biodiversity. Yet, the ecological and …

Many ecosystem services are delivered by organisms that depend on habitats that are
segregated spatially or temporally from the location where services are provided. Management of …

Bees are the most important pollinator taxon; therefore, understanding the scale at which they
forage has important ecological implications and conservation applications. The foraging …

Bees provide essential pollination services that are potentially affected both by local farm
management and the surrounding landscape. To better understand these different factors, we …

There is compelling evidence that more diverse ecosystems deliver greater benefits to people,
and these ecosystem services have become a key argument for biodiversity conservation. …

Managing ecosystem services is critical to human survival, yet we do not know how large
natural areas must be to support these services. We investigated how crop pollination services …

The ability to predict the responses of ecological communities and individual species to
human-induced environmental change remains a key issue for ecologists and conservation …

Floral plantings are promoted to foster ecological intensification of agriculture through provisioning
of ecosystem services. However, a comprehensive assessment of the effectiveness of …

By causing extinctions and altering community structure, anthropogenic disturbances can
