Dispersal dynamics in food webs [PDF]
, 2015 Studies of food webs suggest that limited nonrandom dispersal can play an important role in structuring food webs. It is not clear, however, whether density-dependent dispersal fits empirical patterns of food webs better than density-independent ...

Nitrogen loadings affect trophic structure in stream food webs on the Tibetan Plateau, China
, 2022 Anthropogenic activities, such as agricultural and industrial development, have increased nutrient inputs into waterways, which affect trophic interactions and the flow of energy through food webs in the aquatic ecosystems. However, the responses of food

Planktonic ecological networks support quantification of changes in ecosystem health and functioning
Scientific Reports, 2023 Plankton communities are the foundation of marine food webs and have a large effect on the dynamics of entire ecosystems. Changes in physicochemical factors strongly influence planktonic organisms and their turnover rates, making their communities useful

Leaftronics: Bio‐Fractal Scaffolds From Leaf Venation for Low‐Waste Electronics
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.“Leaftronics” transforms naturally evolved leaf venation into quasi‐fractal scaffolds for sustainable electronics. Polymer‐infiltrated leaf skeletons can be used to fabricate ultra‐smooth, reflow‐ and thin‐film‐compatible decomposable substrates, while making the same lignocellulose networks conducting results in flexible transparent electrodes.

Food webs of fishes in floodplain lakes [PDF]
, 2021 Floodplain lakes are considered biodiversity hotspots within large river systems. The relative importance of allochthonous vs autochthonous carbon to the food webs of river systems has been widely debated for decades.

Individual diet variability shapes the architecture of Antarctic benthic food webs
Scientific ReportsAntarctic biodiversity is affected by seasonal sea-ice dynamics driving basal resource availability. To (1) determine the role of intraspecific dietary variability in structuring benthic food webs sustaining Antarctic biodiversity, and (2) understand how

Size and variation in individual growth rates among food web modules
Ecosphere, 2017 The complexity of food webs can be reduced to fundamental modules of trophic interactions that repeat to form reticulate webs. Omnivory, defined as feeding on more than one trophic level, is a module that is found in food webs more often than predicted ...
