Indonesia's forest conversion moratorium assessed with an agent-based model of Land-Use Change and Ecosystem Services (LUCES) por Suwarno, A., Noordwijk, M. van, Weikard, H.-P., Suyamto, D.

“…A forest moratorium policy that protects forest and peatland is a significant part of the INDCs; however, its effectiveness is unclear in the face of complex land-use and land-cover change. This study aims to assess the dynamics of land-use change and ecosystem service supply as a function of local decision-making. …”

Plant-mediated and nonadditive effects of two global change drivers on an insect herbivore community por Sassi, Claudio de, Lewis, O.T, Tylianakis, Jason M.

“…The crucial role of nonnative plant dominance in mediating responses of herbivores to change, combined with the frequent nonadditive (positive and negative) effects of the two drivers, and the differential responses of species, highlight that understanding complex ecosystem responses will benefit from multifactor, multitrophic experiments at community scales or larger.…”
