T1 - Spread of North American wind-dispersed trees in future environments T2 - Ecology letters N2 - P>Despite ample research, understanding plant spread and predicting their ability to track projected climate changes remain a formidable challenge to be confronted. We modelled the spread of North American wind-dispersed trees in current and future (c. 2060) conditions, accounting for variation in 10 key dispersal, demographic and environmental factors affecting population spread. Predicted spread rates vary substantially among 12 study species, primarily due to inter-specific variation in maturation age, fecundity and seed terminal velocity. Future spread is predicted to be faster if atmospheric CO2 enrichment would increase fecundity and advance maturation, irrespective of the projected changes in mean surface windspeed. Yet, for only a few species, predicted wind-driven spread will match future climate changes, conditioned on seed abscission occurring only in strong winds and environmental conditions favouring high survival of the farthest-dispersed seeds. Because such conditions are unlikely, North American wind-dispersed trees are expected to lag behind the projected climate range shift.

In face of this threat, ecological research needs to provide predictions of communities' responses to fragmentation as a prerequisite for the effective mitigation of further biodiversity loss. However, predictions of communities' responses to fragmentation require a thorough understanding of ecological processes, such as species dispersal and persistence. Therefore, this thesis seeks an improved understanding of community dynamics in fragmented landscapes. In order to approach this overall aim, I identified key questions on the response of plant diversity and plant functional traits to variations in species' dispersal capability, habitat fragmentation and local environmental conditions. All questions were addressed using spatially explicit simulations or statistical models. In chapter 2, I addressed scale-dependent relationships between dispersal capability and species diversity using a grid-based neutral model. I found that the ratio of survey area to landscape size is an important determinant of scale-dependent dispersal-diversity relationships. With small ratios, the model predicted increasing dispersal-diversity relationships, while decreasing dispersal-diversity relationships emerged, when the ratio approached one, i.e. when the survey area approached the landscape size. For intermediate ratios, I found a U-shaped pattern that has not been reported before. With this study, I unified and extended previous work on dispersal-diversity relationships. In chapter 3, I assessed the type of regional plant community dynamics for the study area in the Southern Judean Lowlands (SJL). For this purpose, I parameterised a multi-species incidence-function model (IFM) with vegetation data using approximate Bayesian computation (ABC). I found that the type of regional plant community dynamics in the SJL is best characterized as a set of isolated “island communities” with very low connectivity between local communities. Model predictions indicated a significant extinction debt with 33% - 60% of all species going extinct within 1000 years. In general, this study introduces a novel approach for combining a spatially explicit simulation model with field data from species-rich communities. In chapter 4, I first analysed, if plant functional traits in the SJL indicate trait convergence by habitat filtering and trait divergence by interspecific competition, as predicted by community assembly theory. Second, I assessed the interactive effects of fragmentation and the south-north precipitation gradient in the SJL on community-mean plant traits. I found clear evidence for trait convergence, but the evidence for trait divergence fundamentally depended on the chosen null-model. All community-mean traits were significantly associated with the precipitation gradient in the SJL. The trait associations with fragmentation indices (patch size and connectivity) were generally weaker, but statistically significant for all traits. Specific leaf area (SLA) and plant height were consistently associated with fragmentation indices along the precipitation gradient. In contrast, seed mass and seed number were interactively influenced by fragmentation and precipitation. In general, this study provides the first analysis of the interactive effects of climate and fragmentation on plant functional traits. Overall, I conclude that the spatially explicit perspective adopted in this thesis is crucial for a thorough understanding of plant community dynamics in fragmented landscapes. The finding of contrasting responses of local diversity to variations in dispersal capability stresses the importance of considering the diversity and composition of the metacommunity, prior to implementing conservation measures that aim at increased habitat connectivity. The model predictions derived with the IFM highlight the importance of additional natural habitat for the mitigation of future species extinctions. In general, the approach of combining a spatially explicit IFM with extensive species occupancy data provides a novel and promising tool to assess the consequences of different management scenarios. The analysis of plant functional traits in the SJL points to important knowledge gaps in community assembly theory with respect to the simultaneous consequences of habitat filtering and competition. In particular, it demonstrates the importance of investigating the synergistic consequences of fragmentation, climate change and land use change on plant communities. I suggest that the integration of plant functional traits and of species interactions into spatially explicit, dynamic simulation models offers a promising approach, which will further improve our understanding of plant communities and our ability to predict their dynamics in fragmented and changing landscapes. N2 - Die Fragmentierung von Landschaften umfasst die Zerschneidung und den Verlust von Flächen mit natürlicher Vegetationsentwicklung und ist eine der Hauptursachen für den gegenwärtigen drastischen Verlust an Biodiversität. Diese Dissertation soll zu einem besseren Verständnis der Vegetationsdynamik in fragmentierten Landschaften beitragen. Damit verbunden ist das Ziel, Vorhersagen über die Reaktion von Pflanzengemeinschaften auf Fragmentierung zu verbessern. Diese Vorhersagen sind notwendig, um gezielte Naturschutzmaßnahmen zur Verminderung eines weiteren Verlustes an Biodiversität umsetzen zu können. In Kapitel 2 der Dissertation wird mit einem Simulationsmodell untersucht, wie sich die Ausbreitungsdistanz von Samen auf die lokale Artenzahl von Pflanzengemeinschaften auswirkt. Dabei zeigte sich, dass längere Ausbreitungsdistanzen die lokale Artenvielfalt sowohl erhöhen, als auch verringern können. Der wichtigste Einflussfaktor war dabei die Artenvielfalt der über-geordneten Pflanzengemeinschaft, in der die betrachtete lokale Gemeinschaft eingebettet war. Im dritten Kapitel wird die Konnektivität zwischen Pflanzengemeinschaften in Habitat-fragmenten, d.h. der Austausch von Arten und Individuen durch Samenausbreitung, im Unter-suchungsgebiet in Israel analysiert. Dafür wurde ein zweites räumliches Simulationsmodell mit statistischen Verfahren an Felddaten angepasst. Der Vergleich des Modells mit den Daten wies auf eine sehr geringe Konnektivität zwischen den Habitatfragmenten hin. Das Modell sagte vorher, dass innerhalb von 1000 Jahren 33% - 60% der Arten aussterben könnten. In Kapitel 4 wird zuerst analysiert, welche Prozesse die Verteilung von funktionellen Eigenschaften in Pflanzengemeinschaften bestimmen. In einem zweiten Schritt wird dann unter-sucht, wie sich funktionelle Eigenschaften von Pflanzengemeinschaften mit dem Niederschlag und der Fragmentierung im Untersuchungsgebiet in Israel verändern. Der Zusammenhang zwischen den Eigenschaften Pflanzenhöhe, sowie spezifischer Blattfläche und der Fragmentierung änderte sich nicht entlang des Niederschlagsgradienten. Im Gegensatz dazu, änderte sich der Zusammenhang zwischen der Samenmasse bzw. der Samenzahl und der Fragmentierung mit dem Niederschlag. Aus den Ergebnissen der ersten Teilstudie wird deutlich, dass Naturschutzmaßnahmen, die natürliche Habitate stärker vernetzen sollen, die Diversität, sowie die Zusammensetzung der übergeordneten Artengemeinschaft berücksichtigen müssen, um Verluste an Biodiversität zu vermeiden. Die Verknüpfung eines räumlichen Simulationsmodells mit Felddaten in der zweiten Teilstudie stellt einen neuen und vielversprechenden Ansatz für die Untersuchung der Auswirkungen verschiedener Management-Szenarien dar. Die dritte Teilstudie ist die erste Analyse der gemeinsamen Auswirkungen von Klima und Fragmentierung auf funktionelle Pflanzen-eigenschaften und zeigt die hohe Bedeutung der Untersuchung von Synergie-Effekten verschiedener Umweltfaktoren. Für zukünftige Forschung legt diese Dissertation nahe, funktionelle Eigenschaften und Konkurrenz zwischen Arten in räumlichen Simulationsmodellen zu berücksichtigen, um das Verständnis von Artengemeinschaften in fragmentierten Landschaften noch weiter zu verbessern.

They live in a variety of settings, from sandy to rocky and pebble beaches, to river and lake banks, and to leaf litter and caves. A common feature is the absence of a planktonic larval stage to facilitate passive dispersal over long-distances. However, some species have broad distributions. Genetic studies over the past 25 years have tried to explain this apparent contradiction by assessing patterns of species genetic structuring on different geographical scales. Here, we review the molecular studies available to date and focus on the population genetics of talitrids. Most of these studies considered populations in the Mediterranean area, but also along the Atlantic coast and in Canary Island caves. From this review, the group emerges as a potential model to understand processes of dispersal and divergence in non-highly-vagile supralittoral organisms. At the same time, studies on these issues are still too restricted geographically: a worldwide scale including different regions would provide us with a better perspective on these problems.

T1 - Parameter and uncertainty estimation for process-oriented population and distribution models: data, statistics and the niche JF - JOURNAL OF BIOGEOGRAPHY N2 - The spatial distribution of a species is determined by dynamic processes such as reproduction, mortality and dispersal. Conventional static species distribution models (SDMs) do not incorporate these processes explicitly. This limits their applicability, particularly for non-equilibrium situations such as invasions or climate change. In this paper we show how dynamic SDMs can be formulated and fitted to data within a Bayesian framework. Our focus is on discrete state-space Markov process models which provide a flexible framework to account for stochasticity in key demographic processes, including dispersal, growth and competition. We show how to construct likelihood functions for such models (both discrete and continuous time versions) and how these can be combined with suitable observation models to conduct Bayesian parameter inference using computational techniques such as Markov chain Monte Carlo. We illustrate the current state-of-the-art with three contrasting examples using both simulated and empirical data. The use of simulated data allows the robustness of the methods to be tested with respect to deficiencies in both data and model. These examples show how mechanistic understanding of the processes that determine distribution and abundance can be combined with different sources of information at a range of spatial and temporal scales. Application of such techniques will enable more reliable inference and projections, e.g. under future climate change scenarios than is possible with purely correlative approaches. Conversely, confronting such process-oriented niche models with abundance and distribution data will test current understanding and may ultimately feedback to improve underlying ecological theory.

This has led the species to be classified as globally Vulnerable. By the beginning of the last century, populations were partially migratory and moved south during the breeding season. Currently, the main breeding population inhabits the Ibera wetlands in the province of Corrientes, north-east Argentina, where it is resident all year round. There are two remaining small populations in the province of Formosa, north-east Argentina, and in southern Paraguay, which are separated from the main population by the Parana-Paraguay River and its continuous riverine forest habitat. The populations of Corrientes and Formosa are separated by 300 km and the grasslands between populations are non-continuous due to habitat transformation. We used mtDNA sequences and eight microsatellite loci to test if there were evidences of genetic isolation between Argentinean populations. We found no evidence of genetic structure between populations (Phi(ST) = 0.004, P = 0.32; Fst = 0.01, P = 0.06), which can be explained by either retained ancestral polymorphism or by dispersal between populations. We found no evidence for a recent demographic bottleneck in nuclear loci. Our results indicate that these populations could be managed as a single conservation unit on a regional scale. Conservation actions should be focused on preserving the remaining network of areas with natural grasslands to guarantee reproduction, dispersal and prevent further decline of populations.

A1 - Zeng, Fanqi T1 - Modern models of trophic meta-communities JF - Philosophical transactions of the Royal Society of London : B, Biological sciences N2 - Dispersal and foodweb dynamics have long been studied in separate models. However, over the past decades, it has become abundantly clear that there are intricate interactions between local dynamics and spatial patterns. Trophic meta-communities, i.e. meta-foodwebs, are very complex systems that exhibit complex and often counterintuitive dynamics. Over the past decade, a broad range of modelling approaches have been used to study these systems. In this paper, we review these approaches and the insights that they have revealed. We focus particularly on recent papers that study trophic interactions in spatially extensive settings and highlight the common themes that emerged in different models. There is overwhelming evidence that dispersal (and particularly intermediate levels of dispersal) benefits the maintenance of biodiversity in several different ways. Moreover, some insights have been gained into the effect of different habitat topologies, but these results also show that the exact relationships are much more complex than previously thought, highlighting the need for further research in this area.

N2 - A seed sowing experiment was conducted in a mixed secondary woodland on acidic soils in NE Germany with Melampyrum pratense, an annual ant-dispersed forest herb which lacks a natural population in the study area, but is abundant in similar habitats. Each set of 300 seeds was sown within one square metre at three sites in 1997, and the development of the populations was recorded from 1998 onward. Additionally, seed fall patterns were studied in a natural population by means of adhesive cardboard. All trials resulted in the recruitment of populations, which survived and increased in both individual number and area, up to the year 2001. Thus, local distribution of Melampyrum pratense is dispersallimited. Total individual number increased from 105 to 3,390, and total population area from 2.07 to 109.04 m². Migration occurred in all directions. Mean migration rate was 0.91 m per year, and the highest migration rate was 6.48 m. No individual was recorded beyond 7.63 m from the centres of the sawn squares after three years, suggesting exclusive short-distance dispersal. As primary dispersal enables only distances of up to 0.25 m, ants are presumed to be the main dispersal vectors. Despite differences in individual number and colonization patterns, migration rates did not differ significantly between the populations, but were significantly higher in 2001 due to an increased population size. Colonization patterns were characterized by a rapid, negative exponential decrease of population density with increasing distance from the sown plot, suggesting a colonization by establishment of more or less isolated outposts of individuals and a subsequent gradual infill of the gaps between. My results resemble myrmecochorous dispersal distances in temperate woodlands, and migration rates and patterns across ecotones from ancient to recent deciduous forests. They may function as a colonization model of Melampyrum pratense after accidental long-distance dispersal.

Thereby, the movement process affects species interactions, population dynamics and community composition. In this thesis, I disentangled the effects of movement on the biodiversity of zooplankton ranging from the individual to the community level. On the individual movement level, I used video-based analysis to explore the implication of movement behavior on preypredator interactions. My results showed that swimming behavior was of great importance as it determined their survival in the face of predation. The findings also additionally highlighted the relevance of the defense status/morphology of prey, as it not only affected the prey-predator relationship by the defense itself but also by plastic movement behavior. On the community movement level, I used a field mesocosm experiment to explore the role of dispersal (time i.e., from the egg bank into the water body and space i.e., between water bodies) in shaping zooplankton metacommunities. My results revealed that priority effects and taxon-specific dispersal limitation influenced community composition. Additionally, different modes of dispersal also generated distinct community structures. The egg bank and biotic vectors (i.e. mobile links) played significant roles in the colonization of newly available habitat patches. One crucial aspect that influences zooplankton species after arrival in new habitats is the local environmental conditions. By using common garden experiments, I assessed the performance of zooplankton communities in their home vs away environments in a group of ponds embedded within an agricultural landscape. I identified environmental filtering as a driving factor as zooplankton communities from individual ponds developed differently in their home and away environments. On the individual species level, there was no consistent indication of local adaptation. For some species, I found a higher abundance/fitness in their home environment, but for others, the opposite was the case, and some cases were indifferent. Overall, the thesis highlights the links between movement and biodiversity patterns, ranging from the individual active movement to the community level. N2 - Fortbewegung ist ein Mechanismus, der die Biodiversitätsmuster sowohl über räumliche als auch zeitliche Skalen hinweg prägt. Dabei beeinflusst der Bewegungsprozess die Interaktionen zwischen den Arten, die Populationsdynamik und die Zusammensetzung der Gemeinschaften. Diese Arbeit dient dazu die Auswirkungen der Bewegung auf die Biodiversitätsmuster des Zooplanktons sowohl auf der individuellen als auch gemeinschaftlichen Ebene zu untersuchen. Um auf der individuellen Ebene die Auswirkungen des Bewegungsverhaltens auf die Interaktionen zwischen Räuber und Beute zu untersuchen, wurde eine videobasierte Analyse durchgeführt. Die Ergebnisse zeigten, dass das Schwimmverhalten von großer Bedeutung ist, da es über das Überleben der Tiere im Angesicht von Räubern entscheidet. Darüber hinaus verdeutlichen die Ergebnisse die Rolle des Verteidigungsstatus bzw. der Morphologie der Beutetiere, da diese nicht nur durch die Verteidigung selbst, sondern auch durch die Plastizität des Bewegungsverhaltens, die Beziehung zwischen Beute und Raubtier beeinflussen. Auf der Ebene der Bewegung von Gemeinschaften habe ich ein Mesokosmen-Feldexperiment durchgeführt, um die Rolle der Ausbreitung (zeitlich, d. h. von den Überdauerungsstadien, welche im Sediment gelagert sind, in Kleingewässer, und räumlich, d. h. zwischen Kleingewässer) bei der Strukturierung von Zooplankton-Metagemeinschaften zu untersuchen. Die Ergebnisse konnten zeigen, dass Prioritätseffekte und taxon-spezifische Ausbreitungslimitierungen die Zusammensetzung der Gemeinschaften beeinflussen. Darüber hinaus zeigten die Ergebnisse, dass die unterschiedlichen Ausbreitungsarten (Windausbreitung und Tierverbreitung). Einfluss auf die Gemeinschaftsstrukturen haben. Zusätzlich spielt das Überdauerungsstadien-Reservoir in Sedimenten“, sowie biotische Ausbreitungsvektoren (d. h. Tiere, engl. mobile links), eine wichtige Rolle bei der Besiedlung neuer Habitate. Die lokalen Umweltbedingungen, die eine ankommende Art in einem Habitat vorfindet, sind ein entscheidender Aspekt, der die Struktur der Zooplanktongemeinschaft beeinflusst. Mit Hilfe eines Laborexperiments, für welches Wasserproben aus Kleingewässern/Söllen genutzt wurden, die von einer Agrarlandschaft umgeben sind, konnte ich die Fitness von Zooplanktongemeinschaften in ihrem Heimathabitat vs. in einem neuen Habitat untersuchen. Hierbei konnte ich zeigen, dass die Umweltfilterung ein entscheidender Faktor für die Gemeinschaftsstrukturierung ist, da sich die Zooplanktongemeinschaften der einzelnen Kleingewässer in ihrer Heimatumgebung anders entwickelten als in einer neuen Umgebung. Auf der Art-Ebene, konnte ich jedoch keine eindeutigen Hinweise auf eine lokale Anpassung finden. Bei einigen Arten konnten allerdings höhere Abundanz/Fitness in ihrer Heimatumgebung festgestellt werden, bei anderen war das Gegenteil der Fall, und in einigen F¨allen gab es keine eindeutigen Unterschiede. Zusammenfassend, unterstreicht diese Arbeit die Zusammenhänge zwischen Bewegungs- und Biodiversitätsmustern, die von der aktiven Bewegung des Einzelnen bis hin zur Gemeinschaftsebene reichen.

T1 - Evidence of female preference for odor of distant over local males in a bat with female dispersal JF - Behavioral ecology : the official journal of the International Society for Behavioral Ecology N2 - Geographic variation of sexually selected male traits is common in animals. Female choice also varies geographically and several studies found female preference for local males, which is assumed to lead to local adaptation and, therefore, increases fitness. As females are the nondispersing sex in most mammalian taxa, this preference for local males might be explained by the learning of male characteristics. Studies on the preference of females in female-dispersing species are lacking so far. To find out whether such females would also show preferences for local males, we conducted a study on greater sac-winged bats (Saccopteryx bilineata), a species where females disperse and males stay in their natal colony. Male greater sac-winged bats possess a wing pouch that is filled with odoriferous secretion and fanned toward females during courtship display. In a combination of chemical analysis and behavioral preference tests, we analyzed whether the composition of wing sac secretion varies between two geographically distinct populations (300 km), and whether females show a preference for local or distant male scent. Using gas chromatography, we found significant differences in the composition of the wing sac odors between the two geographically distinct populations. In addition, the behavioral preference experiments revealed that females of both populations preferred the scent of geographically distant males over local males. The wing sac odor might thus be used to guarantee optimal outbreeding when dispersing to a new colony. This is-to our knowledge-the first study on odor preference of females of a species with female-biased dispersal.

We used a system of 46 small wetlands (kettle holes)—natural small‐scale freshwater habitats rarely considered in nature conservation policies—embedded in an intensively managed agricultural matrix in northern Germany. We compared two types of kettle holes with distinct topographies (flatsloped, ephemeral, frequently plowed kettle holes vs. steep‐sloped, more permanent ones) and determined 254 vascular plant species within these ecosystems, as well as plant functional traits and nearest neighbor distances to other kettle holes. Differences in alpha and beta diversity between steep permanent compared with ephemeral flat kettle holes were mainly explained by species sorting and niche processes and mass effect processes in ephemeral flat kettle holes. The plant‐community composition as well as the community trait distribution in terms of life span, breeding system, dispersal ability, and longevity of seed banks significantly differed between the two habitat types. Flat ephemeral kettle holes held a higher percentage of non‐perennial plants with a more persistent seed bank, less obligate outbreeders and more species with seed dispersal abilities via animal vectors compared with steep‐sloped, more permanent kettle holes that had a higher percentage of wind‐dispersed species. In the flat kettle holes, plant‐species richness was negatively correlated with the degree of isolation, whereas no such pattern was found for the permanent kettle holes. Synthesis: Environment acts as filter shaping plant diversity (alpha and beta) and plant‐community trait distribution between steep permanent compared with ephemeral flat kettle holes supporting species sorting and niche mechanisms as expected, but we identified a mass effect in ephemeral kettle holes only. Flat ephemeral kettle holes can be regarded as meta‐ecosystems that strongly depend on seed dispersal and recruitment from a seed bank, whereas neighboring permanent kettle holes have a more stable local species diversity.

This study aims to unravel underlying metacommunity processes and environmental factors that result in observed zooplankton communities. Unlike most metacommunity studies, we jointly examine active and dormant zooplankton communities using a DNA metabarcoding approach to overcome limitations of morphological species identification. We applied two-fragment (COI and 18S) metabarcoding to monitor communities of 24 kettle holes over a two-year period to unravel (i) spatial and temporal connectivity of the communities, (ii) environmental factors influencing local communities, and (iii) dominant underlying metacommunity processes in this system. We found a strong separation of zooplankton communities from kettle holes of different hydroperiods (degree of permanency) throughout the season, while the community composition within single kettle holes did not differ between years. Species richness was primarily dependent on pH and permanency, while species diversity (Shannon Index) was influenced by kettle hole location. Community composition was impacted by kettle hole size and surrounding field crops. Environmental processes dominated temporal and spatial processes. Sediment communities showed a different composition compared to water samples but did not differ between ephemeral and permanent kettle holes. Our results suggest that communities are mainly structured by environmental filtering based on pH, kettle hole size, surrounding field crops, and permanency. Environmental filtering based on specific conditions in individual kettle holes seems to be the dominant process in community assembly in the studied zooplankton metacommunity.

T1 - Combining model detail with large scales T1 - Die Verbindung von Modelldetails und großen Skalen BT - a simulation framework for population viability analyses in changing and disturbed environments BT - ein Simulationswerkzeug zur Analyse der Überlebensfähigkeit von Populationen in einer sich verändernden und gestörten Umwelt N2 - The global climate crisis is significantly contributing to changing ecosystems, loss of biodiversity and is putting numerous species on the verge of extinction. In principle, many species are able to adapt to changing conditions or shift their habitats to more suitable regions. However, change is progressing faster than some species can adjust, or potential adaptation is blocked and disrupted by direct and indirect human action. Unsustainable anthropogenic land use in particular is one of the driving factors, besides global heating, for these ecologically critical developments. Precisely because land use is anthropogenic, it is also a factor that could be quickly and immediately corrected by human action. In this thesis, I therefore assess the impact of three climate change scenarios of increasing intensity in combination with differently scheduled mowing regimes on the long-term development and dispersal success of insects in Northwest German grasslands. The large marsh grasshopper (LMG, Stethophyma grossum, Linné 1758) is used as a species of reference for the analyses. It inhabits wet meadows and marshes and has a limited, yet fairly good ability to disperse. Mowing and climate conditions affect the development and mortality of the LMG differently depending on its life stage. The specifically developed simulation model HiLEG (High-resolution Large Environmental Gradient) serves as a tool for investigating and projecting viability and dispersal success under different climate conditions and land use scenarios. It is a spatially explicit, stage- and cohort-based model that can be individually configured to represent the life cycle and characteristics of terrestrial insect species, as well as high-resolution environmental data and the occurrence of external disturbances. HiLEG is a freely available and adjustable software that can be used to support conservation planning in cultivated grasslands. In the three case studies of this thesis, I explore various aspects related to the structure of simulation models per se, their importance in conservation planning in general, and insights regarding the LMG in particular. It became apparent that the detailed resolution of model processes and components is crucial to project the long-term effect of spatially and temporally confined events. Taking into account conservation measures at the regional level has further proven relevant, especially in light of the climate crisis. I found that the LMG is benefiting from global warming in principle, but continues to be constrained by harmful mowing regimes. Land use measures could, however, be adapted in such a way that they allow the expansion and establishment of the LMG without overly affecting agricultural yields. Overall, simulation models like HiLEG can make an important contribution and add value to conservation planning and policy-making. Properly used, simulation results shed light on aspects that might be overlooked by subjective judgment and the experience of individual stakeholders. Even though it is in the nature of models that they are subject to limitations and only represent fragments of reality, this should not keep stakeholders from using them, as long as these limitations are clearly communicated. Similar to HiLEG, models could further be designed in such a way that not only the parameterization can be adjusted as required, but also the implementation itself can be improved and changed as desired. This openness and flexibility should become more widespread in the development of simulation models. N2 - Die globale Klimakrise trägt maßgeblich dazu bei, dass sich Ökosysteme verändern, die Artenvielfalt sinkt und zahlreiche Spezies vom Aussterben bedroht sind. Viele Arten sind prinzipiell in der Lage, sich wandelnden Bedingungen anzugleichen oder ihre Habitate in geeignetere Regionen zu verlagern. Allerdings schreitet der Wandel schneller voran als sich einige Spezies anpassen können oder die mögliche Anpassung wird durch direkte und indirekte menschliche Eingriffe blockiert und gestört. Gerade die nicht-nachhaltige Landnutzung durch den Menschen ist neben der Klimaerhitzung einer der treibenden Faktoren für diese ökologisch kritischen Entwicklungen. Gleichzeitig ist sie durch ihre unmittelbare menschliche Ursache ein Faktor, der sich kurzfristig und schnell korrigieren ließe. Zu diesem Zweck untersuche ich in dieser Dissertation, wie sich drei Klimawandelszenarien ansteigender Intensität im Zusammenspiel mit unterschiedlich terminierten Mahdregimen im Nordwestdeutschen Grünland auf die langfristige Entwicklung und Ausbreitung von Insekten auswirken. In der Untersuchung fungiert die Sumpfschrecke (Stethophyma grossum, Linné 1758) als Bezugsspezies. Sie ist in Feucht- und Nasswiesen zu Hause und zu räumlicher Ausbreitung fähig, auch wenn sie nur eingeschränkt mobil ist. Mahd und Klimabedingungen wirken sich je nach Lebensstadium unterschiedlich stark auf die Entwicklung und Mortalität der Sumpfschrecke aus. Das eigens entwickelte Simulationsmodell HiLEG (High-resolution Large Environmental Gradient) dient als Werkzeug zur Untersuchung und Projektion der Überlebens- und Ausbreitungswahrscheinlichkeit unter verschiedenen Klima- und Landnutzungsszenarien. Es ist ein räumlich explizites, stadien- und kohortenbasiertes Modell, das individuell konfiguriert werden kann, um den Lebenszyklus und die Charakteristiken terrestrischer Insektenarten sowie hochaufgelöste Umweltdaten und das zeitlich variierende Auftreten externer Störfaktoren abzubilden. HiLEG ist eine frei verfügbare Software und kann zur Unterstützung bei der Planung von Umweltschutzmaßnahmen in kultiviertem Grünland verwendet werden. In den drei Fallstudien dieser Arbeit habe ich verschiedene Aspekte in Bezug auf die Struktur von Simulationsmodellen an sich, deren Bedeutung im Naturschutz im Allgemeinen und Erkenntnisse für die Sumpfschrecke im Speziellen untersucht. Es zeigte sich, dass die detaillierte Auflösung der Modellprozesse und -komponenten entscheidend ist, um den langfristigen Effekt räumlich und zeitlich begrenzter Ereignisse projizieren zu können. Insbesondere in Anbetracht der Klimakrise hat sich die gesteigerte Relevanz von Naturschutzmaßnahmen auf regionaler Ebene herausgestellt. Ich konnte außerdem bestätigen, dass die Sumpfschrecke zwar im Prinzip von der Klimaerwärmung profitiert, aber weiterhin durch ungeeignete Mahdregime beschränkt wird. Bewirtschaftungspläne könnten allerdings in dem Sinne angepasst werden, dass sie die Ausbreitung und Etablierung der Sumpfschrecke erlauben, ohne sich über die Maßen auf den Ertrag der Landwirtschaft auszuwirken. Insgesamt können Simulationsmodelle wie HiLEG einen wichtigen Beitrag und Mehrwert für die Planung von Naturschutzmaßnahmen und Politikinstrument leisten. Richtig eingesetzt beleuchten die Simulationsergebnisse Aspekte, die durch subjektive Bewertung und Erfahrung einzelner Akteure möglicherweise übersehen würden. Auch wenn es in der Natur von Modellen liegt, dass sie Einschränkungen unterworfen sind und nur Ausschnitte der Realität abbilden, sollte dies kein Hindernis für ihren Einsatz sein, solange diese Limitierungen klar kommuniziert werden. Analog zu HiLEG könnten Modelle so konzipiert werden, dass nicht nur ihre Parametrisierung nach Bedarf angepasst, sondern auch die Implementierung selbst beliebig verbessert und verändert werden kann. Diese Offenheit und Flexibilität sollte sich bei der Entwicklung von Simulationsmodelle stärker durchsetzen.
