This study investigates how higher-order species interactions can enable coexistence when pairwise interactions fail, finding that facilitative interactions are less stable than competitive ones.

This paper develops a multi-stressor framework for coral reefs, showing how nutrients, harvesting, and climate change interact to drive ecosystem shifts and highlights 'signatures of change' for management.

The paper examines how life history speed affects consumer-resource interactions, finding that slowing life history can destabilize populations under stochastic conditions due to a ratchet-like effect.

The paper shows escaped rainbow trout develop larger brains relative to body size in a natural lake environment, indicating brain size plasticity in response to environmental changes.

This study demonstrates that combining multiple bio-tracers improves the ability to determine the geographical origin of Sockeye salmon.

The study shows parasitoid communities respond linearly and indiscriminately to budworm and caterpillar density fluctuations, altering interaction strengths and food web pathways.

The paper examines how lake morphometry affects depth use and biomass of predatory fish species with different thermal preferences, finding that thermal preferences influence depth use but not biomass.

The paper shows that multiple species drive flexible lake food webs with warming, but climate change limits their ability to responsively forage, undermining stabilizing mechanisms.
