1. Eco-evolutionary processes and community patterns--- novel avenues for studying biodiversity across spatial and temporal scales
Sammanfattning : Understanding biodiversity patterns poses a persistent challenge due to the complex interconnections of ecological and evolutionary processes. The particular difficulty comes from the various processes influencing biodiversity patterns across different spatial scales. LÄS MER
2. Evolution of Ecological Communities in Spatially Heterogeneous Environments
Sammanfattning : Evolutionarily stable communities are the endpoints of evolution, and ecological communities whose traits are under selection will eventually settle into them. Hence, the properties of such communities are of particular interest, as they can persist over long evolutionary time scales. LÄS MER
3. Evolutionary consequences of ecological interactions
Sammanfattning : Eco-evolutionary dynamics integrates the reciprocal interactions betweenecology and evolution. These two branches of biology traditionally assumethe other as static for simplicity. However, increasing evidence shows thatthis simplification may not always hold because ecology and evolution canoperate in similar timescales. LÄS MER
4. Disturbances in food webs : Importance of species interactions from an ecological and evolutionary perspective
Sammanfattning : Biodiversity loss is occurring globally at an unprecedented pace. This is not only followed by ethical concerns; it also affects all levels of an ecosystem, with wide-spread implications for ecosystem functioning, services and human well-being. LÄS MER
5. The significance of species groups for food web structure and functioning
Sammanfattning : In ecosystems across the world, species co-exist, compete, and consume, all while adapting to environmental conditions and disruptions. An important key to the puzzle of understanding how species will respond to changes in the ecosystems, caused by for example climate change, pollution, habitat destruction, and overexploitation, is what current roles species have in a larger context.
