Trophic innovations fuel reef fish diversification
Nature Communications, 2020 Both geography and ecology can drive the origins of new species. Siqueira et al. show how geological changes in the structure of Miocene reefs and the concurrent evolution of new feeding strategies combine to explain why coral reefs contain such a ...

Social adaptation can reduce the strength of social–ecological feedbacks from ecosystem degradation
People and Nature, 2022 Feedbacks between people and ecosystems are central to the study of social–ecological systems (SES) but remain poorly understood. It is commonly assumed that changes in ecosystems leading to a reduction in ecosystem services will trigger human responses ...
