Effect of a change in physical structure and cover on fish and fish habitat in freshwater ecosystems–a review and meta-analysis

Body size and shoaling in fish
Shoaling behaviour is generally described as a trade‐off between the anti‐predator benefits
of living in groups and the costs of increased foraging competition. An individual's fitness …

The logic and realism of the hypothesis of exploitation ecosystems
L Oksanen, T Oksanen - The American Naturalist, 2000 - journals.uchicago.edu
Hypotheses on trophic dynamics in terrestrial ecosystems fall into two major categories:
those in which plants are assumed to be invulnerable to their consumers and those in which …

Intraspecific competition drives multiple species resource polymorphism in fish communities
It has been hypothesized that inter‐specific competition will reduce species niche utilization
and drive morphological evolution in character displacement. In the absence of a competitor …
