Old methane fuels modern river food web

Functional 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

Journal 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

Journal 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

Are the Rights of Nature the Only Way to Save Lough Neagh?

The Political Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract Northern Ireland's Lough Neagh—the UK and Ireland's largest freshwater lake—recently hit the headlines owing to an ecological crisis caused by the level of pollutants entering its waters. With political attention drawn to the lough, an emerging idea amongst environmental activists—inspired by the global ‘rights of nature’ (RoN) movement—is ...

ParAquaSeq, a Database of Ecologically Annotated rRNA Sequences Covering Zoosporic Parasites Infecting Aquatic Primary Producers in Natural and Industrial Systems

Molecular Ecology Resources, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Amplicon sequencing tools such as metabarcoding are commonly used for thorough characterisation of microbial diversity in natural samples. They mostly rely on the amplification of conserved universal markers, mainly ribosomal genes, allowing the taxonomic assignment of barcodes.
