Trophic position and foraging ecology of Ross, Weddell, and crabeater seals revealed by compound-specific isotope analysis [PDF]

, 2019
Ross seals Ommatophoca rossii are one of the least studied marine mammals, with little known about their foraging ecology. Research to date using bulk stable isotope analysis suggests that Ross seals have a trophic position intermediate between that of ...

Trophic ecology and resource partitioning of Haemulidae species along the Northeastern Brazilian continental shelf

Neotropical Ichthyology, 2022
In the Southeastern Tropical Atlantic, Haemulidae family play an important role both environmentally, acting as a link between lower and higher trophic levels, and socioeconomically, being widely caught by artisanal fleets.

Competition and Environmental Stress Impacts on Trophic Performance of Three Sympatric Insectivorous Lizard Species in Eastern Spain

Sci
Trophic ecology is an important aspect to consider when studying interactions between species, especially in ecologically similar species. We studied the trophic ecology of three sympatric insectivorous lizards in a dune system in the Eastern Iberian ...

Underground Signals: The Ecological Power of Root Volatiles

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Root volatiles mediate rhizosphere chemical communication, shaping interactions among plants, microbes, herbivores, and natural enemies. Their production, transport, and perception underpin ecological adaptation, multitrophic interactions, and plant resilience, offering opportunities for sustainable crop protection, resilient agroecosystems, and ...
