Explaining the divergence of population trajectories for two interacting waterfowl species

open access: yesEcological Monographs, Volume 95, Issue 1, February 2025.
Abstract Identifying the specific environmental features and associated density‐dependent processes that limit population growth is central to both ecology and conservation. Comparative assessments of sympatric species allow for inference about how ecologically similar species differentially respond to their shared environment, which can be used to ...

Seagrasses in the Age of Sea Turtle Conservation and Shark Overfishing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Efforts to conserve globally declining herbivorous green sea turtles have resulted in promising growth of some populations. These trends could significantly impact critical ecosystem services provided by seagrass meadows on which turtles feed.

Positive species interactions structure rhodolith bed communities at a global scale

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 100, Issue 1, Page 428-444, February 2025.
ABSTRACT Rhodolith beds are diverse and globally distributed habitats. Nonetheless, the role of rhodoliths in structuring the associated species community through a hierarchy of positive interactions is yet to be recognised. In this review, we provide evidence that rhodoliths can function as foundation species of multi‐level facilitation cascades and ...

Highlights in Seagrasses’ Phylogeny, Physiology, and Metabolism: What Makes Them Special? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The marine seagrasses form an ecological and therefore paraphyletic group of marine hydrophilus angiosperms which evolved three to four times from land plants towards an aquatic and marine existence.
