[HTML][HTML] Interpreting random forest analysis of ecological models to move from prediction to explanation

SM Simon, P Glaum, FS Valdovinos - Scientific Reports, 2023 - nature.com
As modeling tools and approaches become more advanced, ecological models are becoming
more complex. Traditional sensitivity analyses can struggle to identify the nonlinearities …

Big city Bombus: using natural history and land-use history to find significant environmental drivers in bumble-bee declines in urban development

P Glaum, MC Simao, C Vaidya… - Royal Society open …, 2017 - royalsocietypublishing.org
Native bee populations are critical sources of pollination. Unfortunately, native bees are
declining in abundance and diversity. Much of this decline comes from human land-use change. …

The evolution of resistance to two‐toxin pyramid transgenic crops

AR Ives, PR Glaum, NL Ziebarth… - Ecological …, 2011 - Wiley Online Library
Pyramid transgenic crops that express two Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) toxins hold great potential
for reducing insect damage and slowing the evolution of resistance to the toxins. Here, …

Does urbanization favour exotic bee species? Implications for the conservation of native bees in cities

G Fitch, CJ Wilson, P Glaum, C Vaidya… - Biology …, 2019 - royalsocietypublishing.org
A growing body of research indicates that cities can support diverse bee communities.
However, urbanization may disproportionately benefit exotic bees, potentially to the detriment of …

[HTML][HTML] Changes in adult sex ratio in wild bee communities are linked to urbanization

G Fitch, P Glaum, MC Simao, C Vaidya, J Matthijs… - Scientific Reports, 2019 - nature.com
Wild bees are indispensable pollinators, supporting global agricultural yield and angiosperm
biodiversity. They are experiencing widespread declines, resulting from multiple interacting …

Phenology and flowering overlap drive specialisation in plant–pollinator networks

P Glaum, TJ Wood, JR Morris, FS Valdovinos - Ecology Letters, 2021 - Wiley Online Library
Variation in dietary specialisation stems from fundamental interactions between species
and their environment. Consequently, understanding the drivers of this variation is key to …

[HTML][HTML] A bioenergetic framework for aboveground terrestrial food webs

FS Valdovinos, KRS Hale, S Dritz, PR Glaum… - Trends in ecology & …, 2023 - cell.com
Bioenergetic approaches have been greatly influential for understanding community
functioning and stability and predicting effects of environmental changes on biodiversity. These …

[HTML][HTML] Functional reduction in pollination through herbivore-induced pollinator limitation and its potential in mutualist communities

P Glaum, A Kessler - Nature communications, 2017 - nature.com
Plant–pollinator interactions are complex because they are affected by both interactors’
phenotypes and external variables. Herbivory is one external variable that can have divergent …

Integrating economic dynamics into ecological networks: The case of fishery sustainability

P Glaum, V Cocco, FS Valdovinos - Science advances, 2020 - science.org
Understanding anthropogenic impacts on ecosystems requires investigating feedback
processes between ecological and economic dynamics. While network ecology has advanced …

Contamination and management of resistance evolution to high-dose transgenic insecticidal crops

PR Glaum, AR Ives, DA Andow - Theoretical Ecology, 2012 - Springer
For maize and cotton, transgenic varieties that express toxins derived from Bacillus
thuriengensis (Bt) are now planted in several countries. To slow resistance evolution, the “high-dose/…
