Sapling growth rates reveal conspecific negative density dependence in a temperate forest

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.3298
Abstract: Abstract Local tree species diversity is maintained in part by conspecific negative density dependence (CNDD). This pervasive mechanism occurs in a variety of forms and ecosystems, but research to date has been heavily skewed toward… read more here.

Ecology of the growth of Anolis nebulosus (Squamata: Dactyloidae) in a seasonal tropical environment in the Chamela region, Jalisco, Mexico

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.4899
Abstract: Abstract Juvenile growth rates are thought to be restricted by available food resources. In animals that grow throughout the year, such as tropical lizards, growth is therefore predicted to be faster during the rainy season.… read more here.

Seedling growth responses to species-, neighborhood-, and landscape-scale effects during tropical forest restoration

DOI: 10.1002/ecs2.2386
Abstract: Central to the success of restoration plantings within abandoned pastures is the appropriate selection of species that can establish and grow rapidly to form canopies to suppress grasses. However, species selection can be difficult, largely… read more here.

The impact of calcium decline on population growth rates of crustacean zooplankton in Canadian Shield lakes

DOI: 10.1002/lno.10653
Abstract: Within the last decade, calcium decline has emerged as a stressor for many soft water lakes. A legacy of long-term acid deposition and logging, calcium decline has been implicated in the loss of large herbivores,… read more here.

Phospholipid turnover rates suggest that bacterial community growth rates in the open ocean are systematically underestimated

DOI: 10.1002/lno.11424
Abstract: Heterotrophic bacteria in the surface ocean play a critical role in the global carbon cycle and the magnitude of this role depends on their growth rates. Although methods for determining bacterial community growth rates based… read more here.

Temperature‐dependent growth and activity in a globally distributed nitrogen‐fixing haptophyte

DOI: 10.1002/lno.70050
Abstract: Dinitrogen (N2)‐fixing microorganisms play a crucial role in supplying nitrogen (N) to the oceans by converting atmospheric N2 into bioavailable N. N2 fixation was thought to be limited to warm oligotrophic ocean waters, but the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/oik.11580
Abstract: Warming temperatures can promote arctic tree seedling establishment and growth, but these effects depend on the environmental context and the seedlings' capacity to acquire limiting resources. Here, we tested how temperature, soil properties, and the… read more here.

Variability of growth rates and thermohaline niches of Rhizostoma pulmo’s pelagic stages (Cnidaria: Scyphozoa)
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2021 at "Marine Biology"
DOI: 10.1007/s00227-021-03914-y
Abstract: In recent decades, an increase in the abundance and frequency of bloom events has been reported for the scyphozoan Rhizostoma pulmo in the Mediterranean Sea. Understanding such events requires a thorough assessment of the species’… read more here.

Abstract: Over 29 years (1996–2024) in a lagoon environment in the Chagos Archipelago (Indian Ocean) we conducted a mark-recapture growth rate study during which 135 juvenile hawksbill turtles (Eretmochelys imbricata) were each caught two or more… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00330-024-11106-7
Abstract: Enchondromas (ECs) and atypical cartilaginous tumours (ACTs), respectively, represent benign and intermediate cartilaginous bone tumours. Differentiation between these tumour entities bears difficulties, as histology and MRI cannot always provide exact diagnoses. Observation of the natural… read more here.
