Arthropod Food Webs in the Foreland of a Retreating Greenland Glacier: Integrating Molecular Gut Content Analysis With Structural Equation Modelling. [PDF]
This study investigates the ecological dynamics of arthropod predators across a transect of an Arctic glacier foreland, to understand how climate change impacts predator–prey interactions. By integrating ecological observations with DNA metabarcoding, our research elucidates the role of the key prey species in shaping spider populations in these ...

Effects of mowing on body size patterns in spider assemblages of mesic meadows. [PDF]
In the submitted paper, we described how mowing, as a strong habitat disturbance, influenced on mean, skewness and kurtosis of the body size in epigeic spider assemblages. We found that mowing had no significant effect on mean body size, skewness and kurtosis of the body size in epigeic spider assemblages.
