Subsidy Accessibility Drives Asymmetric Food Web Responses

M. K. Gutgesell, B. C. McMeans, M. M. Guzzo, V. deGroot, A. T. Fisk, T. B. Johnson, K. McCann

The paper examines how thermal tolerances of species affect the accessibility of an anthropogenic subsidy in a freshwater lake food web, leading to asymmetrical changes in food web structure.

Ecosystem Entanglement and the Propagation of Nutrient-Driven Instability

K. McCann, A. MacDougall, C. Bieg, J. Fryxell, G. Fussmann, K. Cazelles, M. Cristescu, G. Gellner, B. LaPointe, A. Gonzalez

The paper shows nutrient additions destabilize ecosystems by causing competitive exclusion and propagating instabilities across landscapes, exacerbated by human-driven ecological connectivity.
