How global heating can disconnect tropical forests from freshwater ecosystems

This blog post is provided by Liam Nash and tells the #StoryBehindThePaper for his article “Warming of aquatic ecosystems disrupts aquatic-terrestrial linkages in the tropics“, with co-authors Pablo Antiqueira, Gustavo Romero, Paula de Omena, and Pavel Kratina, which was recently published in the Journal of Animal Ecology. Liam is currently doing a PhD at Queen Mary University of London on aquatic-terrestrial linkages around the world. Throughout … Continue reading How global heating can disconnect tropical forests from freshwater ecosystems

Indirect interactions through shared predation can drive food-web responses to environmental change: lessons learnt from a lake mesocosm experiment

This blog post is provided by Fernando Chaguaceda and tells the #StoryBehindThePaper for the article “Short-term apparent mutualism drives responses of aquatic prey to increasing productivity“, which was recently published in Journal of Animal Ecology. Mobile generalist predators that feed on more than one prey are common in nature, from the majestic whales that spread their feeding habitats from pole to pole to small animals … Continue reading Indirect interactions through shared predation can drive food-web responses to environmental change: lessons learnt from a lake mesocosm experiment
