Contrasting Population Trajectories of Temperate Reef Fishes and Invertebrates Following Seasonal and Multi‐Decadal Temperature ChangeNARA Subscribed
Temperature perturbations from climate change affect ecosystems through short‐term pulse events, such as heatwaves, and chronic long‐term shifts. Temperate rocky reef ecosystems have been observed to show substantial ecological change as a result of short‐term temperature fluctuations, but the longer‐term impacts of temperature change remain poorly understood. Here, we investigate temperate reef fishes and mobile invertebrates...
Fish and invertebrate communities show greater day–night partitioning on tropical than temperate reefsNARA Subscribed
Diel partitioning of animals within ecological communities is widely acknowledged, yet rarely quantified. Investigation of most ecological patterns and processes involves convenient daylight sampling, with little consideration of the contributions of nocturnal taxa, particularly in marine environments. Here we assess diel partitioning of reef faunal assemblages at a continental scale utilizing paired day and night visual censu...
Patterns of functional diversity along latitudinal gradients of species richness in eleven fish familiesNARA Subscribed
Aim As we enter an era of major biodiversity shifts, understanding large‐scale biodiversity patterns has become crucial for ecological and conservation purposes. Often, conservation priorities are based on concepts derived largely from species richness, yet recent work shows that different facets of biodiversity are also crucial for proper ecosystem continuity, function and services. One facet of biodiversity increasingly rele...
Long time series spatialized data for urban climatological studies: A case study of Paris, FranceNARA Subscribed
Historically, the urban climate and its interaction with regional environment and larger‐scale meteorological phenomena have been studied by comparing weather stations in urban and surrounding rural areas. Nevertheless, spatialized meteorological data are now available with different spatial resolutions, temporal frequencies, and time depths. Here with the Paris area as a case study, three products were selected for their comp...
TRY plant trait database – enhanced coverage and open accessNARA Subscribed
Plant traits—the morphological, anatomical, physiological, biochemical and phenological characteristics of plants—determine how plants respond to environmental factors, affect other trophic levels, and influence ecosystem properties and their benefits and detriments to people. Plant trait data thus represent the basis for a vast area of research spanning from evolutionary biology, community and functional ecology, to biodivers...
Jaguar movement database: a GPS‐based movement dataset of an apex predator in the NeotropicsNARA Subscribed
The field of movement ecology has rapidly grown during the last decade, with important advancements in tracking devices and analytical tools that have provided unprecedented insights into where, when, and why species move across a landscape. Although there has been an increasing emphasis on making animal movement data publicly available, there has also been a conspicuous dearth in the availability of such data on large carnivo...
Hybrid ‘superswarm’ leads to rapid divergence and establishment of populations during a biological invasionNARA Subscribed
Understanding the genetic background of invading species can be crucial information clarifying why they become invasive. Intraspecific genetic admixture among lineages separated in the native ranges may promote the rate and extent of an invasion by substantially increasing standing genetic variation. Here, we examined the genetic relationships among threespine stickleback that recently colonized Switzerland. This invasion resu...
