“…In terms of habitat preferences, the community of carabid beetles of both sites was established mainly by species of open areas, though Trzebionka differed from Bolesław in terms of the higher number of forest carabids (Table 3). Most species identified in both study sites were of small or medium body size, which is in line with a similar study by Belskaya and Zolotarev [24] indicating that the contribution of small species of carabids is higher in disturbed than in undisturbed areas.…”

“…Land, Middle Siberia, and Transbaikalia. In the zone of broad-leaved forests it is one of the most numerous species of ground beetles (Sharova, 1981;Sergeeva & Grunthal, 1988;Soboleva-Dokuchaeva, 1995;Zherebcov, 2000;Belskaya & Zolotarev, 2017). In the Volga region, it is found quite often, but is rare in the south (Kaljuzhnaja et al, 2000).…”

Using geodata technology, we conducted a bioclimatic modeling of the spatial distribution of the common palearctic ground beetle – Pterostichus oblongopunctatus (Fabricius, 1787). The range of comfort of the territories included in this species’ range was obtained. We used the data on 510 sampling points, obtained as a result of the authors’ field surveys and the data base of the GBIF global fund of biodiversity and 19 climatic parameters from the WorldClim open base and MaxEnt program. The results determined the factors which have the greatest impact on the current distribution of P. oblongopunctatus. The main climatic factors affecting the distribution of P. oblongopunctatus are average annual temperature, average 24-hour amplitude of temperature over each month, average temperature over the driest quarter, average temperature over the warmest quarter of the year, total of precipitations in the driest month of the year. We performed a prediction of possible change in the range by two scenarios (RCP 2.6 and RCP 8.5) for 2050 and 2070. Using QGIS program, we estimated the areas of the species’ range, and compared them. According to the scenario RCP 2.6, by 2050, the range of the species will contract due to decrease in the territories with moderately continental climate, and by 2070, a restoration of the range would take place, for according to this scenario, the average annual temperature stabilizes. According to the scenario RCP 8.5, the range will contract by 2050 and will continue to decrease by 2070, for the concentration of CO2 continues to increase along with increase in average annual temperature. Climate changes can affect the life cycle of the beetle, its life expectancy and activity over the season. With changes in temperature, eggs and larvae of P. oblongopunctatus can be more vulnerable.

“…Each CESTES and ceste dataset (CESTES 10,15, and ceste [95][96][97][98][99][100][101][102] ) is associated with reference(s) that should be cited in addition to the CESTES database only if a single or few specific datasets are used separately from the database. For instance, if one uses only Villéger's datasets (Villeger2012a, b, c, d, and e), one would have to cite Villéger's original study 10 (to acknowledge the study antecedence), and the CESTES database 28 (because it is through the CESTES database that the structured data and metadata were made available).…”

A global database for metacommunity ecology, integrating species, traits, environment and space

a global database for metacommunity ecology, integrating species, traits, environment and space alienor Jeliazkov et al. #the use of functional information in the form of species traits plays an important role in explaining biodiversity patterns and responses to environmental changes. although relationships between species composition, their traits, and the environment have been extensively studied on a case-by-case basis, results are variable, and it remains unclear how generalizable these relationships are across ecosystems, taxa and spatial scales. to address this gap, we collated 80 datasets from trait-based studies into a global database for metaCommunity Ecology: Species, Traits, Environment and Space; "CEStES". Each dataset includes four matrices: species community abundances or presences/absences across multiple sites, species trait information, environmental variables and spatial coordinates of the sampling sites. the CEStES database is a live database: it will be maintained and expanded in the future as new datasets become available. By its harmonized structure, and the diversity of ecosystem types, taxonomic groups, and spatial scales it covers, the CEStES database provides an important opportunity for synthetic trait-based research in community ecology. Background & SummaryA major challenge in ecology is to understand the processes underlying community assembly and biodiversity patterns across space 1,2 . Over the three last decades, trait-based research, by taking up this challenge, has drawn increasing interest 3 , in particular with the aim of predicting biodiversity response to environment. In community ecology, it has been equated to the 'Holy Grail' that would allow ecologists to approach the potential processes underlying metacommunity patterns 4-7 . In macroecology, it is common to study biodiversity variation through its taxonomic and functional facets along gradients of environmental drivers 8-10 . In biodiversity-ecosystem functioning research, trait-based diversity measures complement taxonomic ones to predict ecosystem functions 11 offering early-warning signs of ecosystem perturbation 12 .The topic of Trait-Environment Relationships (TER) has been extensively studied across the globe and across the tree of life. However, each study deals with a specific system, taxonomic group, and geographic region and uses different methods to assess the relationship between species traits and the environment. As a consequence, we do not know how generalizable apparent relationships are, nor how they vary across ecosystems, realms, and taxonomic groups. In addition, while there is an emerging synthesis about the role of traits for terrestrial plant communities 13,14 , we know much less about other groups and ecosystem types.To address these gaps, we introduce the CESTES database -a global database for metaCommunity Ecology: Species, Traits, Environment and Space. This database assembles 80 datasets from studies that analysed empirical multivariate trait-environment relationships between 1996 (the first...
