Effect of habitat degradation on competition, carrying capacity, and species assemblage stability [PDF]
, 2017 In human-impacted rivers, nutrient pollution has the potential to disrupt biodiversity organisation and ecosystem functioning, prompting calls for effective monitoring and management.

Species-Specific Effects on Ecosystem Functioning Can Be Altered by Interspecific Interactions. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Biological assemblages are constantly undergoing change, with species being introduced, extirpated and experiencing shifts in their densities. Theory and experimentation suggest that the impacts of such change on ecosystem functioning should be ...

Ecological Indicators, 2022 As the lack of a general understanding of how interspecific interactions change along varying environmental gradients exists, predicting the response of ecological communities to habitat and climate change becomes an arduous task.

Resource Mediated Competition of two South Texas Natives: _Acacia berlandieri_ and _Trichloris pluriflora_ [PDF]
, 2009 *Background/Question/Methods* _Acacia berlandieri_, an early-successional C~3~ woody shrub legume, and _Trichloris pluriflora_, a late-successional/climax C~4~ mid-tall grass, reside in similar habitats and have both been documented in Texas ...

Ecosphere, 2016 We evaluated the contribution of interspecific interactions, intraspecific processes, and environmental forcing to variation in speciessa' abundance in a habitat undergoing rapid successional change. We applied a Bayesian hierarchical approach to a 29‐yr

Ecology and Evolution, 2022 The vast majority of interspecific interactions are competitive or exploitative. Yet, some positive interspecies interactions exist, where one (commensalism) or both (mutualism) species benefit.

Direct and indirect effects of climate change on a prairie plant community. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2009 Climate change directly affects species by altering their physical environment and indirectly affects species by altering interspecific interactions such as predation and competition.

Interspecific association of brown trout (Salmo trutta) with non-native brook trout (Salvelinus fontinalis) at the fry stage [PDF]
, 2017 The introduction of non-native brook trout (Salvelinus fontinalis) in Europe has led to displacement and decreasing populations of native brown trout (Salmo trutta).

Light and noise pollution interact to disrupt interspecific interactions
Ecology, 2017 AbstractStudies on the consequences of urbanization often examine the effects of light, noise, and heat pollution independently on isolated species providing a limited understanding of how these combined stressors affect species interactions. Here, we investigate how these factors interact to affect parasitic frog‐biting midges (Corethrella spp.) and ...

International Journal for Parasitology: Parasites and Wildlife, 2015 Concomitant infection with more than one parasite species is the rule in nature. Since co-infecting parasites are exploiting the same host, interspecific interactions at the infracommunity level are likely. The nature of such interactions can be expected
