They put many species pairs to coexist together. In most cases one species outcompeted the other

Yet all these species are actually coexisting in real communities: coexistence is an emergent phenomenon

Cool study using 18 yr of data from grassland biodiversity experiment shows that plant diversity buffers soil temperature throughout the year

Grasslands with more species show stronger cooling in summer (up to 5ºC) and warming in autumn (+1.5ºC)

Assessing and improving the transferability of global spatial prediction models https://doi.org/10.1111/geb.13635 #ecopubs

-Random cross-validation overestimates accuracy

-Spatial CV selecting reduced number of predictors improves accuracy

-Keep predictions within area of applicability

New preprint @ecoevorxiv claims that ">50% of statistically significant findings in the environmental sciences are actually not"
