This project aims to understand how common species change across regions and how this affects the functions that biodiversity provides across natural and built landscapes. Using a novel, information-rich approach and metric, the project aims to combine simulation experiments, and empirical data using organisms with low (plants) and high mobility (birds). Expected outcomes include new theory and improved biodiversity models, policy and management-relevant insights, new institutional collaborations, and student training. The research aims to provide significant benefits for understanding and monitoring the dynamics of common species, including problem species and common native species in rapid decline.

该项目旨在了解常见物种如何跨地区变化，以及这如何影响生物多样性在自然景观和已建景观中提供的功能。使用一种新颖的、信息丰富的方法和衡量标准，该项目旨在将模拟实验与使用低流动性(植物)和高流动性(鸟类)的生物体的经验数据结合起来。预期成果包括新的理论和改进的生物多样性模型、与政策和管理相关的见解、新的机构合作以及学生培训。这项研究旨在为了解和监测常见物种的动态提供重要帮助，包括问题物种和快速下降的常见本土物种。
