The Food Web of Potter Cove (Antarctica): complexity, structure and function [PDF]

, 2018
Knowledge of the food web structure and complexity are central to better understand ecosystem functioning. A food-web approach includes both species and energy flows among them, providing a natural framework for characterizing species’ ecological roles ...

Winter food sources for the Grey-headed Woodpecker (Picus canus) in South Korea using faecal analysis in nest boxes [PDF]

Biodiversity Data Journal
The Grey-headed woodpecker (Picus canus) inhabiting South Korea is an insectivorous bird species that favours ants. However, during winter, most insects enter a dormant stage, reducing their availability as food sources. This may prompt P.

Cancer Stem Cells: The Architects of the Tumor Ecosystem.

Cell Stem Cell, 2019
Cancer stem cells (CSCs) proactively remodel their microenvironment to maintain a supportive niche. Viewed through the lens of an ecosystem, numerous tumor components have multi-directional interactions involving CSCs, supporting the complexity of tumors

Terrestrial laser scanning in forest ecology: Expanding the horizon

, 2020
Terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) was introduced for basic forest measurements, such as tree height and diameter, in the early 2000s. Recent advances in sensor and algorithm development have allowed us to assess in situ 3D forest structure explicitly and ...

Contrasting Patterns of Plants, Bees, Hoverflies and Spiders in Different Habitats in a Central European Agricultural Landscape

Ecology and Evolution
Semi‐natural grasslands and their biodiversity decline rapidly, although they are key elements of agricultural landscapes. Therefore, there is a need for the re‐establishment of semi‐natural grasslands in intensively managed farmlands (e.g., via sowing ...

Contrasting spatial variations between above and below-ground net primary productivity in global grasslands

Ecological Indicators
Grassland net primary productivity (NPP) plays a crucial role in global terrestrial carbon cycle and carbon balance. However, the spatial pattern and influencing factors of NPP and its components, especially the belowground net primary productivity (BNPP)

Mutual Facilitation Among Invading Nuttall’s Waterweed and Quagga Mussels

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2019
Nuttall’s waterweed (Elodea nuttallii) is the most abundant invasive aquatic plant species in several European countries. Elodea populations often follow a boom-bust cycle, but the causes and consequences of this dynamics are yet unknown.

The ecology of wisdom [PDF]

This is the first of two papers concerning wisdom as an ecosystem appearing in sequential editions of Management & Marketing journal. The notion of wisdom as an ecosystem, or “the wisdom ecology,” builds on work by Hays (2007) who first identified wisdom
