Untangling the contribution of active and passive group augmentation benefits to the multilevel selection of altruism using a video game
J Céré, CD Kelly, PO Montiglio - Behavioral Ecology and Sociobiology, 2024 - Springer
The group augmentation hypothesis states that individuals gain benefits by increasing group
size and is rarely studied because it often overlaps with other evolutionary mechanisms like …

Multiple environmental stressors affect predation pressure in a tropical freshwater system
Environmental change can alter predator-prey dynamics. However, studying predators in the
context of co-occurring environmental stressors remains rare, especially under field …
