MCR LTER: Coral Reef: Spatial portfolios in coral metapopulations are shaped by spatiotemporal asynchrony in environmental conditions; Data for Srednick et al., 2026 Ecology Letters
Using wavelet analyses of a 19-year coral community timeseries from Moorea, French Polynesia, we quantified timescale-specific population synchrony in four common coral genera and evaluated the predictors of spatial portfolio effects. We detected synchrony within genera associated with synchrony in degree heating days, diurnal temperature range (DTR), and macroalgal cover at different timescales. Synchrony in DTR and macroalgal cover was associated with lower synchrony of Pocillopora and Porites populations, respectively. Population (for three of four genera) and environmental synchrony were stronger within than among habitats across timescales, underscoring the role of habitat-specific conditions in driving spatial synchrony and spatial portfolios. These results describe how the spatial and temporal scales of heterogeneity in environmental and ecological conditions determine synchrony in coral population dynamics and support a spatial portfolio effect, which may buffer coral metapopulations from island-scale collapse. Data in support of analyses for: Spatial portfolios in coral metapopulations are shaped by spatiotemporal asynchrony in environmental conditions. Published in Ecology Letters 2026.

Data used for "Assessing spatiotemporal change in coral reef social-ecological systems"
<p>Coral reef data used for Eason, T. and Garmestani, A. S., Assessing spatiotemporal change in coral reef ecosystems. Under Review (Ecology and Society)</p> <p>The raw data was gathered from a coral bleaching study performed by Sully et al (2019). In our current study, we used data spanning from 2003-2016. We amalgamated station names and associated data when the station locations (latitude and longitude) remained essentially the same, but were named slightly different from year to year. </p> <p>Reference: Sully S, Burkepile DE, Donovan MK, Hodgson G, van Woesik R.

Using ecological context to interpret spatiotemporal variation in natural selection
<p>Spatiotemporal variation in natural selection is expected, but difficult to estimate. Pollinator-mediated selection on floral traits provides a good system for understanding and linking variation in selection to differences in ecological context. We studied pollinator-mediated selection in five populations of <i>Dalechampia scandens</i> (Euphorbiaceae) in Costa Rica and Mexico. Using a nonlinear path-analytical approach, we assessed several functional components of selection, and linked variation in pollinator-mediated selection across time and space to variation in pollinator assemblages. After correcting for estimation error, we detected moderate variation in net selection on two of four blossom traits. Both the opportunity for selection and the mean strength of selection decreased with increasing reliability of cross-pollination. Selection for pollinator attraction was consistently positive and stronger on advertisement than reward traits. Selection on traits affecting pollen transfer from the pollinator to the stigmas was strong only when there was a mismatch between pollinator and blossom size under unreliable cross-pollination. These results illustrate how consideration of trait function and ecological context can facilitate both the detection and the causal understanding of spatiotemporal variation in natural selection.</p>

During the rainy season, the average sunrise time was at 06:15 and average sunset time at 17:45. For the dry season, the average sunrise time was at 05:45 and the average sunset time was at 18:15.

Individual distributions of spotted paca and tapeti at a forest fragment at IFS, São Cristóvão, SE, Brazil.We collected the data through camera traps records at 33 sample sites from July 2015 to August 2017. The presence of each species was inferred from species camera trap records from each sample site, while the absence of the species was inferred by the lack of these records.

Data for: Metagenomics show high spatiotemporal virus diversity and ecological compartmentalisation: virus infections of melon, Cucumis melo, crops and adjacent wild communities
<p>Emergence of viral diseases results from novel transmission dynamics between wild and crop plant communities. The bias of studies towards pathogenic viruses of crops has distracted from knowledge of non-antagonistic symbioses in wild plants. Here we implemented a high throughput approach to compare the viromes of melon (<em>Cucumis melo</em>)<em>, </em>and wild plants of crop (Crop) and adjacent boundaries (Edge). Each of the 41-plant species examined was infected by at least one virus. The interactions of 104 virus operational taxonomic units (OTUs) with these hosts occurred largely within ecological compartments of either Crop or Edge, Edge having traits of a reservoir community. The positive correlation of virus and plant richness at each site, the tendency for increased specialist host use through seasons, and specialist host use by OTUs observed only in Melon, characterised local-scale patterns of infection. In this study of systematically sampled viromes of crop and adjacent wild communities most hosts showed no disease symptoms, suggesting non-antagonistic symbioses are common. The coexistence of viruses within species-rich ecological compartments of agro-systems might promote the evolution of a diversity of virus strategies for survival and transmission. These communities, including those suspected as reservoirs, are subject to sporadic changes in assemblages, and so too are the conditions that favour the emergence of disease.</p>
