AbstractGlobal biodiversity loss requires effective ecological community management, reliant on accurate predictions of species coexistence and community assembly. Traditional methods, predicting coexistence from the effect of one species on another (i.e., phenomenologically), are sensitive to environmental context. This is because they ignore the fundamental processes that can be applied across environments. While mechanistic approaches offer promise, empirical tests remain rare.
