DOI: 10.1002/esp.4434
Abstract: Connectivity describes the efficiency of material transfer between geomorphic system components such as hillslopes and rivers or longitudinal segments within a river network. Representations of geomorphic systems as networks should recognize that the compartments, links,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.cell.2022.01.002
Abstract: The human gut microbiota resides within a diverse chemical environment challenging our ability to understand the forces shaping this ecosystem. Here, we reveal that fitness of the Bacteroidales, the dominant order of bacteria in the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.seares.2018.04.005
Abstract: Body size is not an independent variable, but an emergent property: the result of a number of inter-linked eco-physiological processes, like most other quantities that we can measure on organisms. Organisms do not have a… read more here.
