The global climate is rapidly changing and the evidence is increasingly manifesting across
various biological systems. For arthropods, several studies have demonstrated how …

Rooted in the conceptual revolutions of the 1960s and 1970s, contemporary research on the
ecology of desert small mammals has progressed markedly in recent decades. Areas of …

China's Three Gorges Dam has generated a large riparian zone around the reservoir that
has changed the natural fluctuation in water level (FWL) and intensity of anthropogenic …

Caribbean coral reefs have been transformed in the past few decades with the demise of
reef-building corals, and sponges are now the dominant habitat-forming organisms on most …

Replacement of native forests by forest plantations may change the composition and
abundance of small mammals, thus influencing the foraging behavior of mesocarnivores in …

Since 1989 we have monitored small mammal populations at a semiarid site in north-central
Chile with a large-scale livetrapping grid complex. Selective exclusions of vertebrate …

Lionfish (Pterois volitans), venomous predators from the Indo-Pacific, are recent invaders of
the Caribbean Basin and southeastern coast of North America. Quantification of invasive …

Indirect interactions occur when the effect of one species on another is mediated by a third
species. These interactions occur in most multi‐species assemblages and are diverse in …

Soil extracellular enzymes are crucial in biogeochemical cycling and ecosystem functioning.
Most previous studies addressed the determinants of soil extracellular enzyme activity (EEA) …

Predation may often influence native species dynamics and so may be important for the
control of introduced species as well. Here, we examine how predation can regulate fouling …
