Size spectra in freshwater streams are consistent across temperature and resource supply

The paper examines size spectra in freshwater streams and finds that the parameter λ remains consistent across varying temperature and resource supply conditions.

Detecting differences in Size Spectra

This paper compares methods for estimating size spectra exponents, finding that maximum likelihood estimation outperforms binning methods in accuracy and reducing variance.

Bayesian hierarchical modeling of size spectra

The paper develops a Bayesian hierarchical model to estimate power law exponents in size spectra across multiple samples, enabling hypothesis testing for fixed and random effects.

Temperature and resources interact to shape phytoplankton size-abundance relationships at a continental scale

The paper examines phytoplankton size-abundance relationships across 1048 freshwater lakes, finding the slope varies with temperature and nutrients, contradicting the metabolic theory of ecology's prediction of a -3/4 slope.
