El tamaño si importa: ¿Como afectan los rasgos el rol de los peces depredadores en las tramas tróficas y redes espaciales en el Río Paraná Medio?

Este posteo fue proporcionado por Dalmiro Borzone Mas y Pablo Scarabotti y nos cuenta #StoryBehindthePaper para el trabajo “Simetrías y asimetrías en los roles topológicos de los peces depredadores entre las redes de ocurrencia y las tramas tróficas” el cual fue recientemente publicado en el Journal of Animal Ecology. En este estudio ellos exploran como las redes de ocurrencia y las tramas tróficas tienen una … Continue reading El tamaño si importa: ¿Como afectan los rasgos el rol de los peces depredadores en las tramas tróficas y redes espaciales en el Río Paraná Medio?

Size does matter: how do traits affect the role of predatory fish on food webs and spatial networks in the middle Paraná River?

This blog post is provided by Dalmiro Borzone Mas and Pablo Scarabotti and tells the #StoryBehindthePaper for the paper “Symmetries and asymmetries in the topological roles of piscivorous fishes between occurrence networks and food webs“, which was recently published in the Journal of Animal Ecology. In their study, they explore whether occurrence networks and food webs of the Paraná River have a modular structure and … Continue reading Size does matter: how do traits affect the role of predatory fish on food webs and spatial networks in the middle Paraná River?

Big brains, low densities

This blog post is provided by Manuela González-Suárez and tells the #StoryBehindThePaper for the article “The role of brain size on mammalian population densities”, which was recently published in Journal of Animal Ecology. An area near my home has an active sett occupied by a badger family. I have also seen a handful of deer, and dozens and dozens of squirrels. This difference in the … Continue reading Big brains, low densities
