Abstract: Phosphorus is an essential element for all life forms, and it is also a limiting nutrient in many aquatic ecosystems. To keep track of the mismatch between the grazer’s phosphorus requirement and producer phosphorus content,… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract The processes underpinning the differences between Antarctic and sub-Antarctic ecological communities are still unclear. Dispersal, drift, speciation, and abiotic environmental filtering have been considered to explain these differences; biotic interactions, however, have received less… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/oik.04471
Abstract: Seagrass meadows are among the world's most productive ecosystems, and as in many other systems, genetic diversity is correlated with increased production. However, only a small fraction of seagrass production is directly consumed, and instead… read more here.
