摘要

Müller等人重新分析了1989年至2016年间德国昆虫生物量时间变化的已发表数据,重点是模拟天气条件对昆虫生物量的影响。这些利用外部验证数据集进行的升级分析很好地证明了气候条件对每年昆虫生物量的强烈影响。然而,Müller 等人认为天气条件的时间变化解释了昆虫生物量的大部分时间变化,这一结论被夸大了。我们认为,他们的方法不适合得出这样的结论,因为存在遗漏变量偏差。我们重新进行了 Müller 等人的分析,但考虑到了因缺失驱动因素而导致的昆虫生物量的剩余时间趋势。我们的结果表明,Müller 等人的主要结论是错误的:天气条件无法解释昆虫生物量在时间上的显著下降。我们的评论回顾说,不考虑缺失的预测因子很可能会产生偏差很大的结果,尤其是当缺失的预测因子与可用的预测因子相关时,而大多数与全球变化相关的人为压力很可能就是这种情况。这凸显了估算全球变化因素在推动观察到的生物多样性变化方面的相对重要性所面临的艰巨挑战。

Weather explains inter‐annual variability, but not the temporal decline, in insect biomass
Müller et al. re‐analysed published data on temporal variation in insect biomass in Germany between 1989 and 2016, with a focus on modelling the effects of weather conditions on insect biomass. These upgraded analyses, using an external validation dataset, are a nice demonstration of the strong impact of climatic conditions on annual insect biomass. However, Müller et al.'s conclusion that temporal variation in weather conditions explained most of the temporal changes in insect biomass was overstated. We argue that their methodological approach was unsuitable to draw such conclusion, because of omitted variable bias. We re‐ran the analyses of Müller et al. but accounting for a remaining temporal trend in insect biomass due to missing drivers. Our results suggest that the main conclusion of Müller et al. was wrong: there is a significant temporal decline in insect biomass that is not explained by weather conditions. Our commentary recalls that not accounting for missing predictors is likely to produce highly biased results, especially when missing predictors are correlated with the available ones, which is likely to be the case for most of the anthropogenic pressures linked to global change. This highlights the difficult challenge of estimating the relative importance of the global change components in driving the observed biodiversity changes.
