Abiotic variables drive different aspects of fish community trait variation and species richness across the continental United States

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Trait distributions provide insight into how niches overlap within a broader trait space. By integrating individual‐level trait observations from different communities, we can explore how facets of trait dimensionality vary across environmental conditions.

Biological invasions disrupt the relationship between size spectrum and trophic interactions in freshwater fish communities

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Our study shows that non‐native species alter the relationship between the size‐spectrum slope and the predator–prey mass ratio (PPMR) in freshwater fish communities by occupying distinct trophic niches. Abstract The size spectrum, which describes the relationship between abundance (or biomass) and body size, is an ataxic approach that can provide ...

Fine‐scale spatial variation in eastern grey squirrel melanism across a complex urban landscape

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
By sampling 197 parks, the study demonstrates how natural geography creates divergence within cities. The findings reveal that the St. Lawrence River and its tributaries act as barriers, disrupting urban melanism clines in grey squirrels. Ultimately, the research indicates that natural features still dictate evolutionary rules in anthropogenic ...

Human hunters are no substitute for vanishing apex predators

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Our study reveals that human hunters fail to replicate the collective and individual ecological functions of natural apex predators in sustaining biodiversity and promoting stable spatial patterns. These insights are vital for rethinking predator conservation and wildlife management in human‐dominated landscapes.

Boldness and niche width structure spatial interactions in a natural rodent community

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
We show that individual behavioural differences (boldness) structure spatial encounter patterns within a natural multi‐species community. By linking personality to space use and interaction structure, our study demonstrates how intraspecific variation can scale up to shape community‐level processes.
