Climate drives the geography of marine consumption by changing predator communities
MA Whalen, RDB Whippo… - Proceedings of the …, 2020 - National Acad Sciences
The global distribution of primary production and consumption by humans (fisheries) is well-
documented, but we have no map linking the central ecological process of consumption …

Latitude, temperature, and habitat complexity predict predation pressure in eelgrass beds across the Northern Hemisphere
Latitudinal gradients in species interactions are widely cited as potential causes or
consequences of global patterns of biodiversity. However, mechanistic studies documenting …

The effect of habitat structure on prey mortality depends on predator and prey microhabitat use
Structurally complex habitats provide cover and may hinder the movement of animals. In
predator–prey relationships, habitat structure can decrease predation risk when it provides …

Effect of habitat complexity on predation success: re-evaluating the current paradigm in seagrass beds
CR Canion, KL Heck Jr - Marine Ecology Progress Series, 2009 - int-res.com
The complex structure of seagrass beds provides increased protection for prey compared to
unvegetated substrates. Additionally, most studies support the notion that predation intensity …

Indirect interactions in seagrasses: fish herbivores increase predation risk to sea urchins by modifying plant traits
The dominant paradigm of top‐down control of ecological communities through direct
consumption pathways is giving way to a more nuanced understanding of trophic …
