Spatially explicit predictions of food web structure from regional-level data
(The Royal Society, 2024-07-22)Knowledge about how ecological networks vary across global scales iscurrently limited given the complexity of acquiring repeated spatial datafor species interactions. Yet, recent developments in metawebs highlightefficient ways to first document possible ... -
The level of pollination specialization affects the relationship between the shape of flowers and the bills of their hummingbird pollinators in Antillean Gesneriaceae
(The University of Chicago Press, 2022-01-27)Premise of research. Pollinators are known to impose strong selection on floral shape. Particularly well studied is the relationship between the flowers of hummingbird-pollinated plant species and the bills of their pollinators. However, no studies to ... -
Increasing phytoremediation efficiency and reliability using novel omics approaches
(Cell Press, 2014-04-12)Phytoremediation is a cost-effective green alternative to traditional soil remediation technologies, but has experienced varied success in practice. The recent omics revolution has led to leaps in our understanding of soil microbial communities and ... -
Edge effects on vegetation in rights-of-way
(Elsevier, 1997)As a result of an increasing use of ecological methods for the control of vegetation in rights-of-way, it has become necessary to understand the natural processes that are likely to facilitate or hinder management objectives. Several factors may ... -
Selecting herbaceous plant cover to control tree invasion in rights-of-way
(Elsevier, 2002)Following construction of a right-of-way, environmental regulation often requires the rapid restoration of a herbaceous plant cover to control erosion and/or attenuate visual impact. Herbaceous species can be selected with the added long-term goal ... -
