Global models are needed to better characterise, project, and mitigate bees' responses to these human impacts. The available data are, however, geographically and taxonomically unrepresentative; most data are from North America and Western Europe, overrepresenting bumblebees and raising concerns that model results may not be generalizable to other regions and taxa. To assess whether the geographic and taxonomic biases of data could undermine effectiveness of models for conservation policy, we have collated from the published literature a global dataset of bee diversity at sites facing land-use change and intensification, and assess whether bee responses to these pressures vary across 11 regions (Western, Northern, Eastern and Southern Europe; North, Central and South America; Australia and New Zealand; South East Asia; Middle and Southern Africa) and between bumblebees and other bees. Our analyses highlight strong regionally-based responses of total abundance, species richness and Simpson's diversity to land use, caused by variation in the sensitivity of species and potentially in the nature of threats. These results suggest that global extrapolation of models based on geographically and taxonomically restricted data may underestimate the true uncertainty, increasing the risk of ecological surprises.}, language = {en} } @article{MooijvanWijkBeusenetal.2019, author = {Mooij, Wolf M and van Wijk, Dianneke and Beusen, Arthur HW and Brederveld, Robert J and Chang, Manqi and Cobben, Marleen MP and DeAngelis, Don L and Downing, Andrea S and Green, Pamela and Gsell, Alena S and Huttunen, Inese and Janse, Jan H and Janssen, Annette BG and Hengeveld, Geerten M and Kong, Xiangzhen and Kramer, Lilith and Kuiper, Jan J and Langan, Simon J and Nolet, Bart A and Nuijten, Rascha JM and Strokal, Maryna and Troost, Tineke A and van Dam, Anne A and Teurlincx, Sven}, title = {Modeling water quality in the Anthropocene: directions for the next-generation aquatic ecosystem models}, series = {Current Opinion in Environmental Sustainability}, volume = {36}, journal = {Current Opinion in Environmental Sustainability}, doi = {10.1016/j.cosust.2018.10.012}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-224173}, pages = {85-95}, year = {2019}, abstract = {"Everything changes and nothing stands still" (Heraclitus). Here we review three major improvements to freshwater aquatic ecosystem models — and ecological models in general — as water quality scenario analysis tools towards a sustainable future. To tackle the rapid and deeply connected dynamics characteristic of the Anthropocene, we argue for the inclusion of eco-evolutionary, novel ecosystem and social-ecological dynamics. These dynamics arise from adaptive responses in organisms and ecosystems to global environmental change and act at different integration levels and different time scales. We provide reasons and means to incorporate each improvement into aquatic ecosystem models. Throughout this study we refer to Lake Victoria as a microcosm of the evolving novel social-ecological systems of the Anthropocene. The Lake Victoria case clearly shows how interlinked eco-evolutionary, novel ecosystem and social-ecological dynamics are, and demonstrates the need for transdisciplinary research approaches towards global sustainability.}, language = {en} }
