DOI: 10.1002/ece3.4346
Abstract: Abstract Ecotones between distinct ecosystems have been the focus of many studies as they offer valuable insights into key drivers of community structure and ecological processes that underpin function. While previous studies have examined a… read more here.

Herbivory through the lens of ecological processes across Pacific coral reefs
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2024 at "Ecosphere"
DOI: 10.1002/ecs2.4791
Abstract: Coral reefs are in global decline primarily due to climate change. Herbivory is often viewed as key to maintaining coral‐dominated reefs, and herbivore management is gaining traction as a possible strategy for promoting reef resilience.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00442-021-04890-2
Abstract: Climate change is rapidly altering the composition and availability of snow, with implications for snow-affected ecological processes, including reproduction, predation, habitat selection, and migration. How snowpack changes influence these ecological processes is mediated by physical… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10980-024-01890-4
Abstract: Species-agnostic connectivity models are often used to inform management over broad spatial scales. The four main approaches to species-agnostic models parameterize resistance to movement based on naturalness, structural features, climate, or geodiversity variables. Though all… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s13280-025-02149-1
Abstract: To reverse biodiversity loss, creating resilient ecological networks has been promoted in policy and practice. However, we argue that emphasising networks within policy without clear conservation prioritisations may direct focus away from ecological processes important… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jenvman.2018.11.111
Abstract: The ecological stormwater processes of a sponge city include the ecological processes of runoff and confluence, the thermal landscape and decontamination. In this study, elements of stormwater processes - short-duration heavy rainfall, rainstorm intensity, drainage… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.marpolbul.2018.05.049
Abstract: Marine litter (ML) contaminates essentially all global coastal and marine environments and drives multiple ecosystem-level effects. Although deleterious effects of ML on several organisms have been investigated in the last years, this information tends to… read more here.
