Multiple scales of fear: foraging behaviour of white‐naped jays in semiarid landscapes
Animals must constantly balance the need to find resources with the risk of predation. Not only avoiding direct encounters with predators but also assessing the overall risk of their environment using cues, social information or habitat traits at multiple spatial and temporal scales.

Understanding the ecological implications of species coexistence is central to biodiversity studies and to identify environmental and anthropogenic drivers of ecosystem dynamics, where ecological network analysis offers valuable insights. This study examines the complexity, structure, and potential responses to disturbances of the Strait of Magellan's ...

Climatic conditions alter the phenology of species, which may threaten the synchrony of biotic interactions. However, how phenological synchrony across entire communities of plants and their pollinators responds to varying environmental conditions remains poorly understood.

Bottom–up and top–down drivers influence urbanization effects on insect herbivory in oaks
Urban forests provide essential ecosystem services, including pest control, biodiversity conservation, and human health benefits. Herbivory is a widespread biotic interaction that shapes ecosystem functions, such as primary productivity and soil fertility, which underpin these services.

Food webs consist of trophic interactions of variable strength. However, it remains challenging to predict how changes in environmental conditions, such as nutrient enrichment, can affect these interactions. In this paper, we propose to integrate food web theory with ecological stoichiometry, which predicts how elemental ratios affect trophic ...
