Disturbance type determines how connectivity shapes ecosystem resilience
Scientific Reports, 2021 Connectivity is fundamentally important for shaping the resilience of complex human and natural networks when systems are disturbed. Ecosystem resilience is, in part, shaped by the spatial arrangement of habitats, the permeability and fluxes between them,

Updated estimates of carbon accumulation rates in coastal marsh sediments [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2014 Studies on carbon stock in salt marsh sediments have increased since the review by Chmura et al. (2003). However, uncertainties exist in estimating global carbon storage in these vulnerable coastal habitats, thus hindering the assessment of their ...

Being Well-Connected Pays in a Disturbed World: Enhanced Herbivory in Better-Linked Habitats
Diversity, 2020 Seascapes are typically comprised of multiple components that are functionally linked by the movement of organisms and fluxes of matter. Changes to the number and spatial arrangement of these linkages affect biological connectivity that, in turn, can ...
