Trophic and spatial complementarity on seed dispersal services by birds, wild mammals, and cattle in a Mediterranean woodland pasture
(2021-11-01)
Most earth surfaces have undergone intensive land-use changes, creating habitat mosaics. Seed dispersal by animals is a crucial process in such mosaics, but community-wide studies comparing the functional complementarity ...
Decay of interspecific avian flock networks along a disturbance gradient in Amazonia
(Royal Soc, 2014-02-07)
Our understanding of how anthropogenic habitat change shapes species interactions is in its infancy. This is in large part because analytical approaches such as network theory have only recently been applied to characterize ...
Outstanding appearance of Ruppia maritima along Baja California Sur, Mexico and its influence in trophic networks
(Marine Biodiversity, 2010)
Human impact and global warming are driving major modifications to the world’s ecosystems, the coastal zone being one of the most damaged. Seagrass meadows constitute coastal communities that have experienced great losses ...
Emerging Chagas Disease : trophic network and cycle of transmission of Trypanosoma cruzi from palm trees in the Amazon
(Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, U.S. Government agency, 2001-02)
ABSTRACT
Self-Organizing Maps for Evaluation of Biogeochemical Processes and Temporal Variations in Water Quality of Subtropical Reservoirs
(2019-12-01)
Water quality in reservoirs is often compromised in many regions worldwide by nutrients and trace metals. This demands continuous monitoring; however, analyses of large data sets collected during regular monitoring remain ...
Before, during and after megafaunal extinctions: Human impact on Pleistocene-Holocene trophic networks in South Patagonia
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2020-12-15)
Worldwide extinctions of large terrestrial vertebrates in the late Pleistocene provide insight on how humans reshape ecological communities. Understanding the ecological causes and consequences of megafaunal extinctions ...
Benthic ecosystem modelo f the Sinaloa continental shelf, Mexico
(Fisheries Centre Research Reports. INCOFISH Ecosystem Models: Transiting from Ecopath to Ecospace, 2007)
The trophic network of the southern Sinaloa benthonic ecosystem was reconstructed for the period 1994–1997, using Ecopath with Ecosim version 5.1. The ecosystem is a resource for finfish and shrimp fisheries. The majority ...
Experimental reduction of plant abundance changes interaction frequency of a tri-trophic micro-food web: contrasting responses of generalists and specialists
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2019-09)
Species abundance is vulnerable to climate change and anthropogenic impact. Although numerous studies have examined the food web response to species loss, their response (e.g. in network topology and interaction frequency) ...
Evolution and coevolution in mutualistic networks
(WILEY-BLACKWELL, 2011)
A major current challenge in evolutionary biology is to understand how networks of interacting species shape the coevolutionary process. We combined a model for trait evolution with data for twenty plant-animal assemblages ...
