Determining the diet and trophic status of endangered species can provide insights into their
key habitats and predator-prey relationships, both essential for conservation. Integrating …

This study aims model the distribution of meiofauna indicators in relation to environmental
variables from the Santos Basin continental margin, SE Brazil, using machine learning …

The seminal work of Lindeman (1942),'The trophic-dynamic aspect of ecology'(Ecology 23:
399), has been an important starting point for the holistic view of ecosystem trophodynamics …

During the 2013 meeting of the Coastal and Estuarine Research Federation, Iris Anderson,
acting on behalf of the CERF Board, invited me to write an Odum Essay, describing the long …

Variability in mesoscale nearshore oceanographic conditions plays an important role in the
distribution of primary production and food availability for intertidal consumers. Advection of …

Benthic filter feeders have key functional roles in coastal ecosystems as an intermediate
trophic level in food webs and as bioengineers. The food available to such species depends …

Food web configuration is shaped by many factors, including primary production patterns
and oceanographic features, such as upwelling events. In this study, we investigate …

Currently, spatial and temporal changes in nutrients availability, marine planktonic, and fish
communities are best described on a shorter than inter-annual (seasonal) scale, primarily …

Large-scale nutrient fertilisation by coastal upwelling promotes benthic productivity through
energy subsidies from enhanced phytoplankton production, and predictions of alterations to …

Trophodynamic parameters have been used as input data for trophic models and are used
as indicators to support ecosystem management decisions. To understand the ecosystems' …
