Aquatic insects: challenges to populations
, 2008 This book considers some of the potential influences on individuals and populations (e.g. environmental stresses, parasites, cannibalism, dispersal limitations), the 'cunning tricks' used by aquatic insects to overcome challenges (e.g.

Is DNA metabarcoding an option for formaldehyde‐preserved zooplankton time series?
Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.Abstract The recovery of amplifiable DNA from formaldehyde‐fixed (FF) zooplankton samples has long been considered problematic, but advances in degraded‐DNA retrieval have renewed interest in FF samples. To access the information stored in long‐term zooplankton time series, we evaluated methods for extracting amplifiable DNA from community samples ...

Passive Dispersal of Algae and Protozoa Internally and Externally by Selected Aquatic Insects [PDF]
, 1970 This investigation was concerned with three aspects of the problem of passive dispersal of algae and protozoa by aquatic insects: the role of odonates in passive dispersal of viable small aquatic organisms, the passage of viable algae and protozoa ...

Method‐dependent differences in zooplankton abundance and size metrics: Microscopy vs. ZooScan
Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.Abstract Image‐based approaches such as ZooScan are increasingly used for high‐throughput zooplankton monitoring. However, quantitative evaluations of methodological differences relative to conventional microscopy remain limited. In this study, zooplankton abundance and size‐based metrics obtained from microscopy and ZooScan image analysis were ...

Interplanetary frontiers: terraforming from an invasion science perspective
Oikos, EarlyView.The pursuit of a multi‐planetary existence represents one of humanity's greatest frontiers. If applied justly, it offers an opportunity to extend its civilization's lifespan amid escalating sustainability crises on Earth. One approach increasingly gaining traction is terraforming, a hitherto theoretical ecological and evolutionary experiment revolving ...

Warming and predation drive rapid evolution of ecosystem functioning but not functional traits
Oikos, EarlyView.Global environmental change can rapidly reshape phenotypic trait distributions through adaptive and neutral processes. Yet, disentangling their relative contributions remains a major challenge, particularly for traits underpinning ecosystem functioning.

Oikos, EarlyView.Sensory ecology seeks to understand how organisms detect and use information from their environment, yet comparative analyses across multiple sensory modalities remain rare. Here, we present a roadmap for contrasting the sensory ecologies of birds and rodents using surrogate morphological and acoustic traits associated with vision, audition, and ...
