The number of network science applications across many different fields has been rapidly
increasing. Surprisingly, the development of theory and domain-specific applications often …

Networks are one of the most common ways to represent biological systems as complex sets
of binary interactions or relations between different bioentities. In this article, we discuss the …

There is growing awareness of pollinator declines worldwide. Conservation efforts have
mainly focused on finding the direct causes, while paying less attention to building a …

The effects of the present biodiversity crisis have been largely focused on the loss of
species. However, a missed component of biodiversity loss that often accompanies or even …

The observed architecture of ecological and socio-economic networks differssignificantly
from that of random networks. From a network science standpoint, non-random structural …

Predator–prey interactions in natural ecosystems generate complex food webs that have a
simple universal body-size architecture where predators are systematically larger than their …

We review empirical studies on how bioinvasions alter food webs and how a food-web
perspective may change their prediction and management. Predation is found to underlie …

Although networks provide a powerful approach to study a large variety of ecological
systems, their formulation does not typically account for multiple interaction types …

The global biodiversity crisis concerns not only unprecedented loss of species within
communities, but also related consequences for ecosystem function. Community ecology …

Fresh waters are particularly vulnerable to climate change because (i) many species within
these fragmented habitats have limited abilities to disperse as the environment changes;(ii) …
