General mechanisms for a top–down origin of the predator–prey power law

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
The ratio of predator‐to‐prey biomass density is not constant along ecological gradients: denser ecosystems tend to have fewer predators per prey, following a scaling relation known as the ‘predator–prey power law'. The origin of this surprisingly general pattern, particularly its connection with environmental factors and predator–prey dynamics, is ...

Metaproteomic Dataset on Semi‐Diurnal Variability of the Bacterioplankton Communities During a Spring Phytoplankton Bloom in the North Sea

open access: yesPROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Phytoplankton blooms create a substrate‐rich environment that supports the growth of bacterial planktonic heterotrophs. Previously, we studied the dynamics of such bacterioplankton at a long‐term ecological research site near the coast of Helgoland Island (North Sea) once a day.

Hydropower Effluent as a Marine Pollutant; Impacts of River Regulation on Estuarine and Coastal Ecology

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The confluence of rivers with the ocean creates biological hotspots where temperature, salinity, and nutrients mix to provide excellent conditions for rearing, growth, and refuge to a multitude of organisms. Worldwide, estuaries are highly productive and biodiverse.
