Big city Bombus: using natural history and land-use history to find significant environmental drivers in bumble-bee declines in urban development
Native bee populations are critical sources of pollination. Unfortunately, native bees are declining in abundance and diversity. Much of this decline comes from human land-use change. While the effects of large-scale agriculture on native bees are relatively well understood, the effects of urban dev...
