Abstract: Abstract It has been proposed that microbial predator and prey densities are related through sublinear power laws. We revisited previously published biomass and abundance data and fitted Power‐law Biomass Scaling Relationships (PBSRs) between marine microzooplankton… read more here.

Abstract: Organisms with complex life cycles face the challenge of when to switch between habitats and foraging strategies over ontogeny in ways that improve their fitness. Metamorphosis is a well-studied life history event in animals, and… read more here.
