Marine heatwaves amplify benthic community metabolism and solute flux in a seafloor heating experiment

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract The magnitude and frequency of marine heatwaves are increasing and predicted to intensify, but our ability to understand the real‐world effects on vital benthic ecosystems is lagging behind.

Old methane fuels modern river food web

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Dominant ecological paradigms provide theoretical frameworks for two basal sources of carbon to riverine food webs: carbon fixed by algae and submerged macrophytes (autochthonous) and carbon fixed by terrestrial vascular plants that enters aquatic ecosystems as litter ...

Food web trophic control modulates tropical Atlantic reef ecosystems response to marine heat wave intensity and duration

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
In this study we showed that trophic control modulates the effects of marine heatwaves (MHWs) on species biomass dynamics in a tropical and pristine Atlantic reef ecosystem. Our study provides insights into how the strength of predator–prey interactions may generate different outcomes in face of intensified and prolonged MHWs. Abstract Marine heatwaves

Intraspecific body size determines isotopic trophic structure of a large river fish community

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
The body size of individuals within species plays an important role in determining trophic structure, yet many ecological models and tests of theory assign species‐level values to define trophic position or niches. Such studies ignore potential ontogenetic or within species size‐based changes in consumer behaviour and trophic dynamics that can occur as
