Predator‐guild‐specific parental responses mitigate higher predation risk on ground nests close to forest patches in a mosaic landscape

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Predation increases close to habitat edges, but how animals cope with local predation variations remained poorly studied. In a mosaic landscape, lapwings were compensating for increased nest predation close to forests. They acted more aggressively towards an avian predator when nesting close to trees, but comparatively tamer against a mammal.

Verification Experiments of Aerators in Aquacultural Ponds

Verification Experiments of Aerators in Aquacultural Ponds
An aerator, which can induce circulation, supply dissolved oxygen and improve bottom mud conditions, is one of the important equipment for aquaculture. Many of the aquacultural farmers have installed and utilized the aerator to keep better aquacultural ponds conditions and products growth.

Beyond first clutches: Second broods reshape selection on breeding timing in forest and urban great tits

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Most studies of selection on breeding timing consider only first clutches. Using a 13‐year dataset of urban and forest great tits, we show that including second broods reshapes estimates of natural selection, revealing that early breeding is favoured through increased probability of multiple brooding and higher annual reproductive output.

Asymmetric niche partitioning in large omnivores in response to anthropogenic disturbances within subarctic ecosystems

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Anthropogenic disturbances associated with mineral extraction influenced space use and activity patterns in grizzly bears, and to a much lesser extent in black bears, in a subarctic ecosystem, signalling an asymmetric response. Abstract Niche partitioning is an evolutionary process that allows the coexistence of multiple species in a landscape. However,

Warming increases trophic cascade strength in an aquatic food chain

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Using experiments and Bayesian dynamical modelling, we demonstrate that warming strengthens trophic cascades in an aquatic food chain through coordinated, temperature‐dependent shifts in predator, prey and resource traits. By tracing indirect effects to underlying mechanisms, our study shows how climate change can amplify predator impacts and ...

Assessment of large‐scale spatial variation in age‐specific survival and age at first breeding in a long‐lived species

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Using nationwide data from over 92,000 individuals, we reveal large‐scale spatio‐temporal variation in age‐dependent survival and age at first breeding in a long‐lived species. By comparing alternative spatial models, we show that demographic variation follows a biologically meaningful spatial structure, with implications for population dynamics ...
