Bridging the gap between omics and earth system science to better understand how environmental change impacts marine microbes [PDF]

, 2015
The advent of genomic-, transcriptomic- and proteomic-based approaches has revolutionized our ability to describe marine microbial communities, including biogeography, metabolic potential and diversity, mechanisms of adaptation, and phylogeny and ...

Phylogenetic constraints on ecosystem functioning [PDF]

Nature Communications, 2012
There is consensus that biodiversity losses will result in declining ecosystem functioning if species have different functional traits. Phylogenetic diversity has recently been suggested as a predictor of ecosystem functioning because it could approximate the functional complementarity among species.

The Effect of Elevation Gradient on Distribution and Body Size of Carabid Beetles in the Changbaishan Nature Reserve in Northeast Asia

Insects
The environment of mountain ecosystems can change greatly in short distances as elevation increases. The effects of elevation change on the distribution and body size of carabid beetles were investigated at elevations of 750–2600 m in the Changbaishan ...

Mussels and Local Conditions Interact to Influence Microbial Communities in Mussel Beds

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Microbiomes are increasingly recognized as widespread regulators of function from individual organism to ecosystem scales. However, the manner in which animals influence the structure and function of environmental microbiomes has received considerably ...

Functional soil mycobiome across ecosystems

Journal of Proteomics, 2022
Fungi support a wide range of ecosystem processes such as decomposition of organic matter and plant-soil relationships. Yet, our understanding of the factors driving the metaproteome of fungal communities is still scarce. Here, we conducted a field survey including data on fungal biomass (by phospholipid fatty acids, PLFA), community composition (by ...

Multi-Omics Analysis of Curculio dieckmanni (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) Larvae Reveals Host Responses to Steinernema carpocapsae Infection

Insects
The hazelnut weevil larvae (Curculio dieckmanni) is a major pest of nut weevils, spending part of its life cycle in the soil and causing significant damage to hazelnut crops.

Urban Landscapes and Sustainable Cities

Ecology and Society, 2006
Ecological research targeting sustainable urban landscapes needs to include findings and methods from many lines of ecological research, such as the link between biodiversity and ecosystem function, the role of humans in ecosystems, landscape ...

Scale Mismatches in Social-Ecological Systems: Causes, Consequences, and Solutions

Ecology and Society, 2006
Scale is a concept that transcends disciplinary boundaries. In ecology and geography, scale is usually defined in terms of spatial and temporal dimensions.

Fish extinctions and ecosystem functioning in tropical ecosystems [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2007
The activities of modern humans have increased the extinction rate of the world's species by up to 1,000 times that observed from the fossil record (1). This extinction crisis has motivated the scientific community to understand the consequences of reduced biodiversity for the dynamics of ecosystems, especially those that provide basic services to ...
