Endemic fish species structuring oceanic intertidal reef assemblages [PDF]
AbstractIntertidal reef environments are facing a global crisis as climate changes are causing sea-level rise. Synergistically, other human-induced impacts (e.g., sewage, habitat loss) caused by concentration of human populations near the coast increase the natural vulnerability of intertidal ecosystems.

Temporal and spatial changes in macrozoobenthos diversity in Poyang Lake Basin, China
Poyang Lake plays a significant role in maintaining and replenishing the macrozoobenthos biodiversity in the middle Yangtze River. However, due to human activities and natural factors, the habitat of Poyang Lake has been seriously degraded, resulting in ...

The sexuality assemblage: Desire, affect, anti-humanism [PDF]
Two theoretical moves are required to resist the ‘humanist enticements’ associated with sexuality. Post-structuralism supplies the first, showing how the social produces culturally-specific sexual knowledgeabilities.

Coastal streams provide important habitat for many diadromous fish species, which migrate between freshwater and the sea during their life cycle. However, coastal systems are poorly studied in comparison to large, continental river systems.

Long-term species richness-abundance dynamics in relation to species departures and arrivals in wintering urban bird assemblages [PDF]
Temporal dynamics of local assemblages depend on the species richness and the total abundance of individuals as well as local departure and arrival rates of species. We used urban bird survey data collected from the same 31 study plots and methods during

Population structure of graptolite assemblages [PDF]
Graptolite rhabdosomes display a diverse suite of morphologies. The range of morphotypes present within most moderate to high diversity assemblages from the Ordovician and Silurian is similar, despite the different taxonomic composition of the faunas at different times.

Phylogenetic community structure: temporal variation in fish assemblage [PDF]
AbstractHypotheses about phylogenetic relationships among species allow inferences about the mechanisms that affect species coexistence. Nevertheless, most studies assume that phylogenetic patterns identified are stable over time. We used data on monthly samples of fish from a single lake over 10 years to show that the structure in phylogenetic ...

Apparent competition structures ecological assemblages
Competition is a major force in structuring ecological communities1. It acts directly2 or indirectly, in which case it may be mediated by shared natural enemies and is known as ‘apparent competition’3,4,5,6. The effects of apparent competition on species coexistence are well known theoretically7,8 but have not previously been demonstrated empirically ...
