The functional response of a consumer to a gradient of resource density is a widespread
and consistent framework used to quantify the importance of consumption to population …

Functional responses describe how consumer foraging rates change with resource density.
Despite extensive research looking at the factors underlying foraging interactions, there …

Recent empirical studies have reported evidence that many aquatic species, including fish,
cephalopods and crustaceans, have the capacity for nociception and pain, and that their …

Global warming and the introduction of non-native fish represent major threats to freshwater
biodiversity worldwide, but their effects have usually been investigated separately. Since …

Consistent between‐individual differences in movement are widely recognised across taxa.
In addition, foraging plasticity at the within‐individual level suggests a behavioural …

Predation is a pervasive force that structures food webs and directly influences ecosystem
functioning. The relative body sizes of predators and prey may be an important determinant …

Functional responses describe foraging rates across prey densities and underlie many
fundamental ecological processes. Most functional response knowledge comes from …

Invasive species threaten biodiversity and ecosystem functioning. We develop an innovative
experimental approach, integrating biologically inspired robotics, time-series analysis, and …

Accurately quantifying an animal's movement is crucial for develo** a greater empirical
and theoretical understanding of its behaviour, and for simulating biologically plausible …

Although average, species-level interaction strength plays a key role in driving population
dynamics and community structure, predator-prey interactions occur among individuals. As a …
