Significant questions remain about how ecosystems that are structured by abiotic stress will be affected by climate change. Warmer temperatures are hypothesized to shift species along abiotic gradients such that distributions track changing...

Cascading impacts of changes in subsidy quality on recipient ecosystem functioning [0.03%]
补贴质量变化对受体生态系统功能的级联影响

Stephen E Osakpolor et al.
Resource quantity and quality can differ between adjacent ecosystems, and these differences can impact subsidies exchanged between ecosystems. The quantity and quality of subsidies are rapidly changing in response to stressors associated wi...
Multiscale phenological niches of seed fall in diverse Amazonian plant communities [0.03%]
亚马逊植物群落中种子传播的多尺度物候位理论及其在生物多样性中的作用

Damie Pak et al.
Phenology has long been hypothesized as an avenue for niche partitioning or interspecific facilitation, both promoting species coexistence. Tropical plant communities exhibit striking diversity in reproductive phenology, but many are also n...
Does invasion by armored catfish shift trophic ecology of native fishes? Evidence from stable isotope analysis [0.03%]
基于稳定同位素分析的外来军鱼入侵如何改变本地鱼类的营养生态？

Popular as aquarium fish, armored catfishes from South America (Pterygoplichthys spp.) have been introduced and become invasive in tropical and subtropical regions worldwide. These ecosystem engineers can deplete basal resources (e.g., peri...
Patterns of frequency and density dependence are highly variable in diverse annual flowering plant communities [0.03%]
多样化的多年生开花植物群落中频率和密度制约模式的高度变化性

Applications of ecological theory to natural communities often assume that competitive, negative density-dependent processes are the only type of interaction important for diversity maintenance. Recent advances suggest that positive interac...
