Ichthyoplankton assemblage structure of springs in the Yangtze Estuary revealed by biological and environmental visions [PDF]
PeerJ, 2015 The ichthyoplankton assemblage structure in the Yangtze Estuary was analyzed based on four springs in 1999, 2001, 2004 and 2007 in order to provide detailed characterizations of the ichthyoplankton assemblage in springs, examine the long-term dynamics of

Coastal Upwelling Drives Intertidal Assemblage Structure and Trophic Ecology. [PDF]
PLoS One, 2015 Similar environmental driving forces can produce similarity among geographically distant ecosystems. Coastal oceanic upwelling, for example, has been associated with elevated biomass and abundance patterns of certain functional groups, e.g., corticated macroalgae.

The hidden side of diversity: Effects of imperfect detection on multiple dimensions of biodiversity
Ecology and Evolution, 2021 Studies on ecological communities often address patterns of species distribution and abundance, but few consider uncertainty in counts of both species and individuals when computing diversity measures. We evaluated the extent to which imperfect detection

Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences, 2022 Although giant and large fish species are highly important as a keystone species in the marine ecosystem, there have been no or few studies on their spatio-temporal variations around the Korean peninsula.

Density‐dependence mediates coral assemblage structure [PDF]
Ecology, 2018 AbstractDensity dependence (DD) controls community recovery following widespread mortality, yet this principle rarely has been applied to coral assemblages. The reefs of Mo'orea, French Polynesia, provide the opportunity to study DD of coral population growth, because coral assemblages in this location responded to declines in abundance with high ...

Human Disturbance Affects Dung Beetle Assemblages in French Guiana Forests
Diversity, 2022 French Guiana forests are threatened by increasing human activity such as infrastructure development, facilitating access to the forest and, therefore, logging, mining, farming and hunting.

Structure in plant–animal interaction assemblages [PDF]
Oikos, 2006 We present a comprehensive approach to detect pattern in assemblages of plant and animal species linked by interactions such as pollination, frugivory or herbivory. Simple structural models produce gradient, compartmented or nested patterns of interaction; intermediate patterns between a gradient and compartments are possible, and nesting within ...

The European Zoological Journal, 2021 Chironomids are the most common and abundant benthic invertebrate family in freshwater environments worldwide, but most studies on chironomid assemblages focus on presence/absence of species rather than abundance and community composition. This makes the

Larval Fish Spatiotemporal Dynamics of Different Ecological Guilds in Yangtze Estuary
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023 Estuaries, as important fish nursery habitats, usually include a variety of larval fishes of different ecological guilds and exhibit complicated changing environmental conditions.
