The biomass and biogeochemical roles of fish in the ocean are ecologically important but
poorly known. Here, we use a data-constrained marine ecosystem model to provide a first …

Food web analyses offer useful insights into understanding how species interactions, trophic
relationships, and energy flow underpin important demographic parameters of fish …

Animal body-size variation influences multiple processes in marine ecosystems, but habitat
heterogeneity has prevented a comprehensive assessment of size across pelagic …

Fishing-induced biomass depletion is common on coral reefs. Yet, fisheries persist,
maintaining the livelihoods of millions of fishers. Understanding this persistence is key to …

Fishing pressure on coral reef ecosystems has been frequently linked to reductions of large
fishes and reef fish biomass. Associated impacts on overall community structure are …

Riverine ecosystems can be conceptualized as 'bioreactors'(the riverine bioreactor) which
retain and decompose a wide range of organic substrates. The metabolic performance of the …

Land‐use and land‐cover transitions can affect biodiversity and ecosystem functioning in a
myriad of ways, including how energy is transferred within food‐webs. Size spectra (ie …

Drought events are increasingly affecting the planet's biodiversity. While shrinking body size
in response to drought has been observed in many vertebrate animals, whether this rule …

Freshwater bioindicators have been developed to assess ecosystem health and responses
to human-induced stressors. To date, most bioindicators primarily rely on the species identity …

Size‐spectral approaches quantify the efficiency of energy transfer through food webs, but
theory and field studies disagree over how changes in temperature, nutrients, and extreme …
