Plant species richness and sunlight exposure increase pollinator attraction to pollinator gardens

Abstract: Evidence documenting the decline of insect populations is accumulating. Efforts have increased to mitigate pollinator losses by establishing gardens to support pollinator diversity. However, knowledge of the specific garden characteristics, landscape features, and environmental factors that affect pollinator diversity and abundance is limited, particularly in biodiverse regions in North America. In order to better understand how garden characteristics affect pollinator attraction, we compared pollinator compos… Show more

“…Specifically, the NLCD employs a modified Anderson II Classification System to categorize land surface into discrete categories using factors such as vegetation type, percent tree cover, and percent impervious surface cover. With 30‐m resolution NLCD data, the number of pixels per each land‐use category in the 2 km buffers was recorded as in past studies (Pozzi & Small, 2005; Watson et al., 2022) (see Table A2 for a percent breakdown of each land‐use type within a 2 km radius of each milkweed population). Fifteen unique NLCD land‐use categories were present within the 2 km buffers around the milkweed sites (Table A2), and these were subsetted into two major categories of land‐use: developed land and undeveloped land.…”
