Food webs represent trophic interactions within ecosystems. Matching traits of consumers
and resources helps infer trophic interactions and food-web properties. Environmental (e) …

The prevalence and intensity of marine heatwaves is increasing globally, disrupting local
environmental conditions. The individual and population-level impacts of prolonged …

Species are redistributing globally in response to climate warming, impacting ecosystem
functions and services. In the Barents Sea, poleward expansion of boreal species and a …

Blood-sucking insects are important vectors of disease, with biting Diptera (flies) alone
transmitting diseases that cause an estimated 700 000 human deaths a year. Insect vectors …

Studying how food web structure and function vary through time represents an opportunity to
better comprehend and anticipate ecosystem changes. Yet, temporal studies of highly …

Accurate characterisation of ecological communities with respect to their biodiversity and
food-web structure is essential for conservation. However, combined empirical study of …

Accurate quantification of biodiversity can be demanding and expensive. Although
environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding can facilitate biodiversity assessments through …

Ecological communities are constantly exposed to multiple natural and anthropogenic
disturbances. Multivariate composition (if recovered) has been found to need significantly …

In nature, entangled webs of predator–prey interactions constitute the backbones of
ecosystems. Uncovering the network architecture of such trophic interactions has been …

Introduction Competition embodies species struggle for space and food and is, therefore, a
critical evolutionary mechanism influencing species spatiotemporal patterns and …
