Ian Pearse, PhD
Ian is an ecologist who works on plants and insects.
Ian conducts research at the individual, population, community, and ecosystem level scales. His work focuses on plant-insect interactions and involves work on endangered insects such as bumble bees, strategies to map and control invasive plants, the chemical ecology and behaviors that affect herbivory, and the boom and bust seed production dynamics of many trees (i.e. mast seeding). His work informs management decisions made by the US Fish and Wildlife Service, National Parks, and a variety of other groups. Ian is especially fond of oak trees and spends a considerable amount of time staring up into them with the vague excuse of counting acorns, gall wasps, or rates of herbivory.

Macroscale analyses suggest invasive plant impacts depend more on the composition of invading plants than on environmental context Macroscale analyses suggest invasive plant impacts depend more on the composition of invading plants than on environmental context
Aim Native biodiversity is threatened by the spread of non-native invasive species. Many studies demonstrate that invasions reduce local biodiversity but we lack an understanding of how impacts vary across environments at the macroscale. Using ~11,500 vegetation surveys from ecosystems across the United States, we quantified how the relationship between non-native plant cover and native...

Modeling habitat suitability across different levels of invasive plant abundance Modeling habitat suitability across different levels of invasive plant abundance
Predicting where invasive plants are likely to spread and become abundant is critical for informing invasive plant management. Species distribution models are a key tool for informing the geography of invasion risk, but most distribution models are limited by their use of presence data, including no information on invader population abundance. In this study, we ask how habitat...

Increased aridity is associated with stronger tradeoffs in ponderosa pine vital functions Increased aridity is associated with stronger tradeoffs in ponderosa pine vital functions
Trees must allocate resources to core functions like growth, defense, and reproduction. These allocation patterns have profound effects on forest health, yet little is known about how core functions trade off over time, and even less is known about how a changing climate will impact tradeoffs. We conducted a 21-year survey of growth, defense, and reproduction in 80 ponderosa pine...

Invasion-mediated mutualism disruption is evident across heterogeneous environmental conditions and varying invasion intensities Invasion-mediated mutualism disruption is evident across heterogeneous environmental conditions and varying invasion intensities
The impact of a biological invasion on native communities is expected to be uneven across invaded landscapes due to differences in local abiotic conditions, invader abundance, and traits and composition of the native community. One way to improve predictive ability about the impact of an invasive species given variable conditions is to exploit known mechanisms driving invasive species'...

Periodical cicada emergences affect masting behavior of oaks Periodical cicada emergences affect masting behavior of oaks
Oaks (Quercus spp.) are masting species exhibiting highly variable and synchronized acorn production. We investigated the hypothesis that periodical cicadas (Magicada spp.), well known to have strong effects on the ecosystems in which they occur, affect acorn production of oaks through their xylem feeding habits as nymphs, the oviposition damage they inflict as adults during emergences...

Extensive regional variation in the phenology of insects and their response to temperature across North America Extensive regional variation in the phenology of insects and their response to temperature across North America
Climate change models often assume similar responses to temperatures across the range of a species, but local adaptation or phenotypic plasticity can lead plants and animals to respond differently to temperature in different parts of their range. To date, there have been few tests of this assumption at the scale of continents, so it is unclear if this is a large-scale problem. Here, we...

Combining local, landscape, and regional geographies to assess plant community vulnerability to invasion impact Combining local, landscape, and regional geographies to assess plant community vulnerability to invasion impact
Invasive species science has focused heavily on the invasive agent. However, management to protect native species also requires a proactive approach focused on resident communities and the features affecting their vulnerability to invasion impacts. Vulnerability is likely the result of factors acting across spatial scales, from local to regional, and it is the combined effects of these...

Masting is shaped by tree-level attributes and stand structure, more than climate, in a Rocky Mountain conifer species Masting is shaped by tree-level attributes and stand structure, more than climate, in a Rocky Mountain conifer species
Masting describes the spatiotemporal variability in seed production by a population of plants. Both abiotic and biotic factors drive masting, but the importance of these factors can vary among individuals and populations. To better understand how a changing climate, altered disturbance regimes, or novel management strategies might affect future seed production, we quantified the joint...

Invaders at the doorstep: Using species distribution modeling to enhance invasive plant watch lists Invaders at the doorstep: Using species distribution modeling to enhance invasive plant watch lists
Watch lists of invasive species that threaten a particular land management unit are useful tools because they can draw attention to invasive species at the very early stages of invasion when early detection and rapid response efforts are often most successful. However, watch lists typically rely on the subjective selection of invasive species by experts or on the use of spotty occurrence...

SPCIS: Standardized Plant Community with Introduced Status database SPCIS: Standardized Plant Community with Introduced Status database
The movement of plant species across the globe exposes native communities to new species introductions. While introductions are pervasive, two aspects of variability underlie patterns and processes of biological invasions at macroecological scales. First, only a portion of introduced species become invaders capable of substantially impacting ecosystems. Second, species that do become...

Addressing detection uncertainty in Bombus affinis (Hymenoptera: Apidae) surveys can improve inferences made from monitoring Addressing detection uncertainty in Bombus affinis (Hymenoptera: Apidae) surveys can improve inferences made from monitoring
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service developed national guidelines to track species recovery of the endangered rusty patched bumble bee [Bombus affinis Cresson (Hymenoptera: Apidae)] and to investigate changes in species occupancy across space and time. As with other native bee monitoring efforts, managers have specifically acknowledged the need to address species detection uncertainty and...

Grasshopper species composition differs between prairie dog colonies and undisturbed sites in a sagebrush grassland Grasshopper species composition differs between prairie dog colonies and undisturbed sites in a sagebrush grassland
Grasshoppers are major consumers of plant biomass in grassland and shrubland ecosystems. While often considered generalists, grasshopper species have differing habitat preferences and interactions with other consumers in grasslands. There are conflicting accounts of how prairie dog colonies and differences in vegetation impact grasshopper abundance and composition. We conducted a...

Macroscale analyses suggest invasive plant impacts depend more on the composition of invading plants than on environmental context Macroscale analyses suggest invasive plant impacts depend more on the composition of invading plants than on environmental context
Aim Native biodiversity is threatened by the spread of non-native invasive species. Many studies demonstrate that invasions reduce local biodiversity but we lack an understanding of how impacts vary across environments at the macroscale. Using ~11,500 vegetation surveys from ecosystems across the United States, we quantified how the relationship between non-native plant cover and native...

Modeling habitat suitability across different levels of invasive plant abundance Modeling habitat suitability across different levels of invasive plant abundance
Predicting where invasive plants are likely to spread and become abundant is critical for informing invasive plant management. Species distribution models are a key tool for informing the geography of invasion risk, but most distribution models are limited by their use of presence data, including no information on invader population abundance. In this study, we ask how habitat...

Increased aridity is associated with stronger tradeoffs in ponderosa pine vital functions Increased aridity is associated with stronger tradeoffs in ponderosa pine vital functions
Trees must allocate resources to core functions like growth, defense, and reproduction. These allocation patterns have profound effects on forest health, yet little is known about how core functions trade off over time, and even less is known about how a changing climate will impact tradeoffs. We conducted a 21-year survey of growth, defense, and reproduction in 80 ponderosa pine...

Invasion-mediated mutualism disruption is evident across heterogeneous environmental conditions and varying invasion intensities Invasion-mediated mutualism disruption is evident across heterogeneous environmental conditions and varying invasion intensities
The impact of a biological invasion on native communities is expected to be uneven across invaded landscapes due to differences in local abiotic conditions, invader abundance, and traits and composition of the native community. One way to improve predictive ability about the impact of an invasive species given variable conditions is to exploit known mechanisms driving invasive species'...

Periodical cicada emergences affect masting behavior of oaks Periodical cicada emergences affect masting behavior of oaks
Oaks (Quercus spp.) are masting species exhibiting highly variable and synchronized acorn production. We investigated the hypothesis that periodical cicadas (Magicada spp.), well known to have strong effects on the ecosystems in which they occur, affect acorn production of oaks through their xylem feeding habits as nymphs, the oviposition damage they inflict as adults during emergences...

Extensive regional variation in the phenology of insects and their response to temperature across North America Extensive regional variation in the phenology of insects and their response to temperature across North America
Climate change models often assume similar responses to temperatures across the range of a species, but local adaptation or phenotypic plasticity can lead plants and animals to respond differently to temperature in different parts of their range. To date, there have been few tests of this assumption at the scale of continents, so it is unclear if this is a large-scale problem. Here, we...

Combining local, landscape, and regional geographies to assess plant community vulnerability to invasion impact Combining local, landscape, and regional geographies to assess plant community vulnerability to invasion impact
Invasive species science has focused heavily on the invasive agent. However, management to protect native species also requires a proactive approach focused on resident communities and the features affecting their vulnerability to invasion impacts. Vulnerability is likely the result of factors acting across spatial scales, from local to regional, and it is the combined effects of these...

Masting is shaped by tree-level attributes and stand structure, more than climate, in a Rocky Mountain conifer species Masting is shaped by tree-level attributes and stand structure, more than climate, in a Rocky Mountain conifer species
Masting describes the spatiotemporal variability in seed production by a population of plants. Both abiotic and biotic factors drive masting, but the importance of these factors can vary among individuals and populations. To better understand how a changing climate, altered disturbance regimes, or novel management strategies might affect future seed production, we quantified the joint...

Invaders at the doorstep: Using species distribution modeling to enhance invasive plant watch lists Invaders at the doorstep: Using species distribution modeling to enhance invasive plant watch lists
Watch lists of invasive species that threaten a particular land management unit are useful tools because they can draw attention to invasive species at the very early stages of invasion when early detection and rapid response efforts are often most successful. However, watch lists typically rely on the subjective selection of invasive species by experts or on the use of spotty occurrence...

SPCIS: Standardized Plant Community with Introduced Status database SPCIS: Standardized Plant Community with Introduced Status database
The movement of plant species across the globe exposes native communities to new species introductions. While introductions are pervasive, two aspects of variability underlie patterns and processes of biological invasions at macroecological scales. First, only a portion of introduced species become invaders capable of substantially impacting ecosystems. Second, species that do become...

Addressing detection uncertainty in Bombus affinis (Hymenoptera: Apidae) surveys can improve inferences made from monitoring Addressing detection uncertainty in Bombus affinis (Hymenoptera: Apidae) surveys can improve inferences made from monitoring
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service developed national guidelines to track species recovery of the endangered rusty patched bumble bee [Bombus affinis Cresson (Hymenoptera: Apidae)] and to investigate changes in species occupancy across space and time. As with other native bee monitoring efforts, managers have specifically acknowledged the need to address species detection uncertainty and...

Grasshoppers are major consumers of plant biomass in grassland and shrubland ecosystems. While often considered generalists, grasshopper species have differing habitat preferences and interactions with other consumers in grasslands. There are conflicting accounts of how prairie dog colonies and differences in vegetation impact grasshopper abundance and composition. We conducted a...
