The effect of urbanization and exposure to multiple environmental factors on life-history traits and breeding success of Barn Swallows (Hirundo rustica) across China (2022)
Journal Article
Zhao, Y., Pagani-Núñez, E., Liu, Y., Xing, X., Zhang, Z., Pan, G., …Safran, R. J. (2022). The effect of urbanization and exposure to multiple environmental factors on life-history traits and breeding success of Barn Swallows (Hirundo rustica) across C

In addition to landscape changes, urbanization also brings about changes in environmental factors that can affect wildlife. Despite the common referral in the published literature to multiple environmental factors such as light and noise pollution, t...

Trade‐offs between economic development and biodiversity conservation on a tropical island (2022)
Journal Article
Pagani‐Núñez, E., Xu, Y., Yan, M., He, J., Jiang, Z., & Jiang, H. (2022). Trade‐offs between economic development and biodiversity conservation on a tropical island. Conservation Biology, 36(5), Article e139121. https://doi.org/10.1111/cobi.13912

Resolving trade-offs between economic development and biodiversity conservation needs is crucial in currently developing countries and in particularly sensitive systems harboring high biodiversity. Yet, such a task is challenging because human activi... Read More about Trade‐offs between economic development and biodiversity conservation on a tropical island.

Undergraduates' perceptions on emergency remote learning in ecology in the post‐pandemic era (2022)
Journal Article
Pagani‐Núñez, E., Yan, M., Hong, Y., Zeng, Y., Chen, S., Zhao, P., & Zou, Y. (2022). Undergraduates' perceptions on emergency remote learning in ecology in the post‐pandemic era. Ecology and Evolution, 12(3), Article e8659. https://doi.org/10.1002/e

The COVID-19 pandemic has strongly disrupted academic activities, particularly in disciplines with a strong empirical component among other reasons by limiting our mobility. It is thus essential to assess emergency remote teaching plans by surveying... Read More about Undergraduates' perceptions on emergency remote learning in ecology in the post‐pandemic era.

A migratory divide spanning two continents is associated with genomic and ecological divergence (2022)
Journal Article
Turbek, S. P., Schield, D. R., Scordato, E. S., Contina, A., Da, X., Liu, Y., Liu, Y., Pagani-Núñez, E., Ren, Q., & Smith, C. C. (2022). A migratory divide spanning two continents is associated with genomic and ecological divergence. Evolution, 76(4), 7

Migratory divides are contact zones between breeding populations with divergent migratory strategies during the nonbreeding season. These locations provide an opportunity to evaluate the role of seasonal migration in the maintenance of reproductive i...

Avian predators taste reject mimetic prey in relation to their signal reliability (2022)
Journal Article
He, R., Pagani-Núñez, E., Goodale, E., & Barnett, C. (2022). Avian predators taste reject mimetic prey in relation to their signal reliability. Scientific Reports, 12(1), Article 2334. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-022-05600-5

Aposematic organisms defend themselves through various means to increase their unprofitability to predators which they advertise with conspicuous warning signals. Predators learn to avoid aposematic prey through associative learning that leads to low... Read More about Avian predators taste reject mimetic prey in relation to their signal reliability.

Dynamic trait-niche relationships shape niche partitioning across habitat transformation gradients (2022)
Journal Article
Pagani-Núñez, E., Liang, D., He, C., Liu, Y., Luo, X., & Goodale, E. (2022). Dynamic trait-niche relationships shape niche partitioning across habitat transformation gradients. Basic and Applied Ecology, 59, 59-69. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.baae.2022.01

Multidimensional approaches examining complex trait-niche relationships are crucial to understand community assembly. This is particularly important across habitat transformation gradients because specialists are progressively substituted by generali...
