On traits matching and the modular organization of food web and occurrence networks
Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.What mechanisms shape ecological networks? In Paraná River piscivores, species traits and abundance scaling promote modular structures. Our findings reveal how communities self‐organize and highlight the conditions needed to sustain them. Abstract Modularity and nestedness have been observed recurrently across different ecological networks, including ...

Urban Water Demand: Income and Price Elasticities
Australian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We use bimonthly water consumption data from 580,000 households in the metropolitan region of Western Australia over the period 2015–2020 to analyse urban residential water demand. A generalised two‐stage least squares (G2SLS) approach is used to estimate water consumption as a function of price, household income, weather variables, property ...
