Skeletal age during hurricane impacts fluctuating asymmetry in Cayo Santiago rhesus macaques

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 13, Issue 8, August 2023., 2023
Fluctuating asymmetry (FA), or random deviations from symmetry, can be used as a proxy for developmental instability, and anthropogenic and natural disruptions have been associated with increased levels of FA. In this study, we investigate the effect of demographic variables (age, sex, and decade of birth) and hurricane experience on FA in a model ...

Emerging stability of forest productivity by mixing two species buffers temperature destabilizing effect

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 59, Issue 11, Page 2730-2741, November 2022., 2022
This study highlights the emergent properties associated with mixing two‐species, which result in resource efficient and temporally stable production systems. We reveal the negative impact of mean temperature on temporal stability of forest productivity and how the stabilizing effect of mixing two species can counterbalance this impact.
