Interactions connect the units of ecological systems, forming networks. Individual-based
networks characterize variation in niches among individuals within populations. These …

Networks of species interactions underpin numerous ecosystem processes, but
comprehensively sampling these interactions is difficult. Interactions intrinsically vary across …

Aim Environmental DNA metabarcoding has recently emerged as a non‐invasive tool for
aquatic biodiversity inventories, frequently surpassing traditional methods for detecting a …

Genetic diversity is estimated to be declining faster than species diversity under escalating
threats, but its spatial distribution remains poorly documented at the global scale. Theory …

Migratory marine species cross political borders and enter the high seas, where the lack of
an effective global management framework for biodiversity leaves them vulnerable to …

The distance travelled by marine larvae varies by seven orders of magnitude. Dispersal
shapes marine biodiversity, and must be understood if marine systems are to be well …

Ecological networks have classically been studied at site and landscape scales, yet recent
efforts have been made to collate these data into global repositories. This offers an …

Ecological networks are increasingly studied at large spatial scales, expanding their focus
from a conceptual tool for community ecology into one that also addresses questions in …

After 10 years of the Fukushima Nuclear Accident, Japan decided to release the nuclear
wastewater into the Pacific Ocean on 13 April 2021. It is apparent that Japan has chosen the …

Species are redistributing globally in response to climate warming, impacting ecosystem
functions and services. In the Barents Sea, poleward expansion of boreal species and a …
