Freshwater Snails at the Biodiversity–Climate–Health Nexus: A Call to Recognize Neglected Models for Eco‐Evolutionary and One Health Research [PDF]

Ecology and Evolution
Freshwater ecosystems are central but overlooked in frameworks addressing the biodiversity‐climate‐health nexus. Among their inhabitants, freshwater snails occupy a unique position at the intersection of ecology, evolution, and disease.

Ecology and Biology of Aquatic Insects

Insects, 2021
The advancement of our knowledge on the ecology and biology of aquatic insects is essential to improving our understanding of their roles in water quality, disease ecology, as indicators of climate change, biodiversity, as well as community structure and

First regional evaluation of nuclear genetic diversity and population structure in northeastern coyotes (Canis latrans) [v1; ref status: indexed, http://f1000r.es/2y3]

F1000Research, 2014
Previous genetic studies of eastern coyotes (Canis latrans) are based on one of two strategies: sampling many individuals using one or very few molecular markers, or sampling very few individuals using many genomic markers.

Genetic and environmental determinants of insect herbivore community structure in a Betula pendula population [v1; ref status: indexed, http://f1000r.es/2pd]

F1000Research, 2014
A number of recent studies have shown that intraspecific genetic variation of plants may have a profound effect on the herbivorous communities which depend on them.

Thermoregulation strategies in ants in comparison to other social insects, with a focus on red wood ants (Formica rufa group) [v2; ref status: indexed, http://f1000r.es/35p]

F1000Research, 2014
Temperature influences every aspect of ant biology, especially metabolic rate, growth and development. Maintenance of high inner nest temperature increases the rate of sexual brood development and thereby increases the colony fitness.

Discovery of continental-scale travelling waves and lagged synchrony in geometrid moth outbreaks prompt a re-evaluation of mountain birch/geometrid studies [v2; ref status: indexed, http://f1000r.es/1sb]

F1000Research, 2013
The spatio-temporal dynamics of populations of two 9-10 year cyclic-outbreaking geometrids, Operophtera brumata and Epirrita autumnata in mountain birch forests in northern Fennoscandia, have been studied since the 1970´s by a Swedish-Norwegian research ...

Ecological implications of reduced pollen supply in the alpine: a case study using a dominant cushion plant species [v2; ref status: indexed, http://f1000r.es/3xc]

F1000Research, 2014
The reproductive assurance hypothesis states that self-incompatible female plants must produce twice the number of seeds relative to their self-compatible hermaphroditic counterparts to persist in gynodioecious populations.
