DOI: 10.1002/ece3.8761
Abstract: Abstract While trends in tropical deforestation are alarming, conservation biologists are increasingly recognizing the potential for species survival in human‐modified landscapes. Identifying the factors underlying such persistence, however, requires basic ecological knowledge of a species’… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/lno.10553
Abstract: Diet composition of leaf-eating mangrove crabs is a puzzle among mangrove ecologists. Nutrient-poor leaf litter can in most cases not support animal growth. Food partitioning (mangrove leaves, animal tissue, and microphytobenthos [MPB]) of sesarmid and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10641-017-0676-0
Abstract: Migratory species take advantage of multiple habitats during their life cycle to optimize growth, survival, and reproduction. However, migration also makes them vulnerable to habitat degradation and exploitation in each habitat, and loss of connection… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10750-020-04303-0
Abstract: Little consensus exists on the role of food partitioning in the organization of tadpole assemblages. We studied trophic ecology of syntopic tadpoles through the analysis of gut contents, selectivity, and stable isotopes to assess the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s13157-018-1119-1
Abstract: Increasing global temperatures are changing the balance between carbon sequestration and its microbial processing in wetlands, making the tracking of these processes important. We used detrital carbon stable isotopes (δ13C) to trace aerobic decomposition and… read more here.
