How to improve scaling from traits to ecosystem processes.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Trends in ecology & evolution [Trends Ecol Evol] 2023 Mar; Vol. 38 (3), pp. 228-237. Date of Electronic Publication: 2022 Nov 23.
Abstract: Scaling approaches in ecology assume that traits are the main attributes by which organisms influence ecosystem functioning. However, several recent empirical papers have found only weak links between traits and ecosystem functioning, questioning the u...
Scaling up and down: movement ecology for microorganisms.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Trends in microbiology [Trends Microbiol] 2023 Mar; Vol. 31 (3), pp. 242-253. Date of Electronic Publication: 2022 Oct 22.
Abstract: Movement is critical for the fitness of organisms, both large and small. It dictates how individuals acquire resources, evade predators, exchange genetic material, and respond to stressful environments. Movement also influences ecological and evolution...
Applying Landscape Ecology in Local Planning, Some Experiences.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): International journal of environmental research and public health [Int J Environ Res Public Health] 2023 Feb 15; Vol. 20 (4). Date of Electronic Publication: 2023 Feb 15.
Abstract: Landscape ecology is repeatedly described as an applied science that can help reduce the negative effects of land-use and land-use changes on biodiversity. However, the extent to which landscape ecology is in fact contributing to planning and design pr...
Scientists petition UCLA to reverse ecologist's suspension.
Publication Type: Periodical

Adaptive Management of Flows in a Regulated River: Flow-ecology Relationships Revealed by a 26-year, Five-treatment Flow Experiment.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Environmental management [Environ Manage] 2023 Feb; Vol. 71 (2), pp. 439-450. Date of Electronic Publication: 2022 Nov 30.
Abstract: Adaptive management (AM) is often proposed as a means to resolve uncertainty in the management of socio-ecological systems but successful implementation of AM is rare. We report results from a 26 year, five-treatment, AM experiment designed to inform d...
Large-scale spatial variability in urban tolerance of birds.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): The Journal of animal ecology [J Anim Ecol] 2023 Feb; Vol. 92 (2), pp. 403-416. Date of Electronic Publication: 2022 Dec 13.
Abstract: Quantifying intraspecific and interspecific trait variability is critical to our understanding of biogeography, ecology and conservation. But quantifying such variability and understanding the importance of intraspecific and interspecific variability r...
Almost nothing is known about the tiger shark in South Atlantic waters.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): PeerJ [PeerJ] 2023 Jan 20; Vol. 11, pp. e14750. Date of Electronic Publication: 2023 Jan 20 (Print Publication: 2023).
Abstract: The tiger shark ( Galeocerdo cuvier ) has been relatively well assessed concerning biology and ecology aspects in both Atlantic and Pacific North America and in Caribbean waters. The amount of data in these regions has led to the species protection und...
Mountain-water-forest-farmland-lake-grassland-sandland holistic protection and restoration engineering and landscape ecology.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Ying yong sheng tai xue bao = The journal of applied ecology [Ying Yong Sheng Tai Xue Bao] 2023 Jan; Vol. 34 (1), pp. 249-256.
Abstract: Theoretical researches and practices on the life community of mountain-water-forest-farmland-lake-grassland-sandland mosaic and its protection and restoration have been gradually developed in China, which demands the support of a systematic disciplinar...

Allometric scaling improves the characterization of complex community transcriptomes.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Molecular ecology resources [Mol Ecol Resour] 2023 Jan; Vol. 23 (1), pp. 10-12. Date of Electronic Publication: 2022 Nov 09.
Abstract: Allometric scaling, that is scaling patterns in physiological processes relative to body size, can be used to overcome the current limitations in metatranscriptomics. Metatranscriptomics refers to the use of RNA transcripts to characterize a complex co...
