The temporal scale of energy maximization explains allometric variations in movement decisions of large herbivores

Ecosphere
Empirical testing of energy maximization models has been used to clarify the drivers of resource partitioning among large herbivores. Most studies, however, have not considered that predictions of optimal diet depend on the temporal scale of maximization.

Shrubland biomass and root-shoot allocation along a climate gradient in China [PDF]

Plant Ecology and Evolution, 2021
Background – Shrublands are receiving increasing attention because of climate change. However, knowledge about biomass allocation of shrublands at the community level and how this is regulated by climate is of limited availability but critical for ...

Different biomass allocation strategies of geophytes and non-geophytes along an altitude gradient

Ecological Indicators, 2023
Biomass allocation strategies among geophytes and non-geophytes generally determine the ecological adaptation and impacts of herbaceous plants. Although geophytes and non-geophytes are key components of the biodiversity of subtropical forest ecosystems ...

Ecological niche partitioning in two Pacific puffins

Marine Ecology Progress Series, 2023
: Ecological theory predicts that closely related species can coexist if they segregate in space, time, or diet to reduce competitive overlap when resources are limited.

Changes in Root–Shoot Allometric Relations in Alpine Norway Spruce Trees After Strip Cutting

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Silvicultural interventions such as strip cuttings can change the resource availability of the edge trees. This may alter tree allometry, as light regime, water, and nutrient availability can change at the forest edge.

Allometric scaling laws linking biomass and rooting depth vary across ontogeny and functional groups in tropical dry forest lianas and trees.

New Phytologist, 2019
There are two theories about how allocation of metabolic products occurs. The allometric biomass partitioning theory (APT) suggests that all plants follow common allometric scaling rules.
