Spatially‐explicit foraging by an apex predator linked to nearshore prey and their accessibility in lakes

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Habitat coupling – where mobile predators forage over broad spatial scales and, in doing so, link food webs from semi‐discrete habitat patches – has emerged as a major structuring force in lake ecosystems. For the cold‐water apex predator lake trout Salvelinus namaycush, food‐web structure and morphometry‐driven accessibility to nearshore areas in ...

Structural complexity of hard substrates shapes shallow marine benthic communities

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Structurally complex habitats offer niche diversity, with varying biotic and abiotic conditions, generally leading to higher biodiversity compared to simpler habitats. However, our understanding of the response of ecological communities to increased complexity and the underlying drivers remain ambiguous due to discrepancies in how complexity is ...

Do environmental fluctuations during development affect trait variation? An experimental test with salinity

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Human‐induced climate change is a driver of extinction, with extreme events occurring more frequently. It increases both the amount and fluctuations in environmental stress that organisms experience. In such environments, greater intra‐specific trait variation creates more potential for adaptation through natural selection.
