Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.Abstract Understanding a population's distribution depends on observing the presence and movement of individuals throughout their range. For highly mobile marine species, these observations typically rely on high effort monitoring programs. Tracking enough individuals to understand trends in movement behavior is not always logistically feasible, and ...

The feasibility principle in community ecology
Oikos, EarlyView.The structure and function of ecological communities emerge from interactions among populations within specific environmental contexts. Yet we still lack general principles that explain how communities assemble, which patterns we should expect, and when transitions occur across diverse settings.

People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Biological invasions are a major driver of biodiversity loss, yet inconspicuous or “cryptic” species often escape detection and public awareness, limiting management responses. We investigated the freshwater jellyfish Craspedacusta sowerbii, likely native to China and now present on six continents, through a 22‐month multilingual online survey
