Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Previous studies often overlooked the dynamic effects of karst vegetation restoration on soil multi‐trophic biodiversity and the underlying community‐assembly mechanisms. To fill this gap, we performed a seasonal comparative analysis of soil biodiversity, co‐occurrence network architecture, and assembly processes across three representative ...

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.Abstract Climate change is accelerating the deoxygenation of aquatic ecosystems, so understanding its effects on biological processes is increasingly critical. An emerging method for inducing hypoxia during experimentation utilizes sodium sulfite (SSI) to scavenge oxygen; however, it remains unclear if hypoxia‐inducing concentrations of SSI are toxic ...

Oikos, EarlyView.Elucidating the determinants of parasite infection levels of individuals within a population is a basic but important step for understanding the roles of parasites in natural systems. Among intraspecific studies on vertebrate hosts and metazoan parasites, host body size (length/mass) is probably the most frequently reported factor determining parasite ...

Demonstrating limitations of area‐restricted search as a foraging mechanism
Oikos, EarlyView.Foragers often rely on simple behavioral rules that translate local environmental cues into movement decisions. One of the most widespread rules is area‐restricted search (ARS), in which movement becomes less directional following resource encounters. ARS is generally considered effective for exploiting clustered resources, yet recent conceptual work ...
