Global Salmon Networks: Unpacking Ecological Contradictions at the Production Stage
(Taylor and Francis Inc., 2019)
© 2018, © 2018 Clark University.Firms’ strategies for turning nature into commodities are heavily oriented toward reducing the ecological indeterminacy of the production process by controlling its biophysical properties ...
Cryptic interactions revisited from ecological networks: Mosses as a key link between trees and hummingbirds
(Wiley, 2020)
1. Ecological interactions are the glue of biodiversity, structuring communities and
determining their functionality. However, our knowledge about ecological interactions
is usually biased against cryptic interactions ...
Effects of sampling completeness on the structure of plant-pollinator networks
(Wiley, 2012)
Plant-animal interaction networks provide important information on community organization. One of the most critical assumptions of network analysis is that the observed interaction patterns constitute an adequate sample ...
Topology of Plant - Flower-Visitor Networks in a Tropical Mountain Forest: Insights on the Role of Altitudinal and Temporal Variation
(Public Library of Science, 2015)
Understanding the factors determining the spatial and temporal variation of ecological networks is fundamental to the knowledge of their dynamics and functioning. In this study, we evaluate the effect of elevation and time ...
Niche partitioning due to adaptive foraging reverses effects of nestedness and connectance on pollination network stability
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2016)
Much research debates whether properties of ecological networks such as nestedness and connectance stabilise biological communities while ignoring key behavioural aspects of organisms within these networks. Here, we ...
A conceptual framework for studying the strength of plant-animal mutualistic interactions
(Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2015)
© 2015 John Wiley & Sons Ltd/CNRS.The strength of species interactions influences strongly the structure and dynamics of ecological systems. Thus, quantifying such strength is crucial to understand how species interactions ...
Species traits and network structure predict the success and impacts of pollinator invasions
(2018-05-31)
Species invasions constitute a major and poorly understood threat to plant-pollinator systems. General theory predicting which factors drive species invasion success and subsequent effects on native ecosystems is particularly ...
Octodon degus kin and social structure
(Oxford University Press, 2016-04)
A growing body of evidence showing that individuals of some social species live in non-kin groups suggests kin selection is not required in all species for sociality to evolve. Here, we investigate 2 populations of Octodon ...
A twitter-lived red tide crisis on Chiloe Island, Chile: what can be obtained for social-ecological research through social media analysis?
(MDPI, 2020)
Considering traditional research on social-ecological crises, new social media analysis, particularly Twitter data, contributes with supplementary exploration techniques. In this article, we argue that a social media ...
A network-based approach to the analysis of ontogenetic diet shifts: An example with an endangered, small-sized fish
(Elsevier, 2011)
Many organisms exhibit ontogenetic shifts in their diet and habitat use, which often exert a large
influence on the structure and expected dynamics of food webs and ecological communities.
Nevertheless, reliable methods ...
