The dazzling variation in plant chemistry is a primary mediator of trophic interactions,
including herbivory, predation, parasitism, and disease. At the same time, such interactions …

The objective of our paper is to develop a mechanistic conceptual framework for how food
webs recover from natural physical disturbances. We summarize our work on the effect of …

Most prominent theories of food web dynamics imply the simultaneous action of bottom–up
and top–down forces. However, transient bottom‐up effects resulting from resource pulses …

Foraging decisions shape the structure of food webs. Therefore, a behavioural shift in a
single species can potentially modify resource‐flow dynamics of entire ecosystems. To …

Although ecologists have long understood the fundamentally dynamic nature of
communities, ecology has until recently seemed to emphasize other aspects of ecological …

Pulsed resource subsidies can have profound effects on recipient communities. The effects
of resource pulses are often mediated by increases in the density of consumer populations …

Wrack accumulations are a source of nutrients on sandy beaches and host invertebrate
species, increasing local biodiversity. The distribution of these important accumulations …

Trophic morphology affects resource acquisition; therefore, species differences in such traits
may be informative for inferring resource use overlap and potential species interactions. In …

Worldwide, ecological subsidies enhance ecosystem productivity and therefore trophic
support for greater biodiversity of taxa. While studies in terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems …

Marine‐derived resource subsidies can generate intrapopulation variation in the behaviors
and diets of terrestrial consumers. How omnivores respond, given their multiple trophic …
