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

open access: yesJournal 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

open access: yesVerification 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

open access: yesJournal 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

open access: yesJournal 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

open access: yesJournal 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 ...
