Abstract: Stochasticity in food availability influences vital rates such as survival and fertility. Life-history theory predicts that in long-lived organisms, survival should be buffered against environmental stochasticity showing little temporal variability. Furthermore, to optimize survival prospects,… read more here.

Abstract: Refuge can greatly influence predator-prey dynamics by movements between the interior and the exterior of a refuge. The presence of refuge for prey decreases predation risk and can have important impacts on the sustainability of… read more here.

Abstract: Significance While there has been much effort to understand how sea otter recovery transforms nearshore ecosystems, the effects on terrestrial systems have remained uninvestigated. We documented a transboundary food web interaction resulting from the recolonization… read more here.
