Broadening the problem agenda of biological individuality: individual differences, uniqueness and temporality
MI Kaiser, R Trappes - Biology & Philosophy, 2021 - Springer
Biological individuality is a notoriously thorny topic for biologists and philosophers of
biology. In this paper we argue that biological individuality presents multiple, interconnected …

Oyster reef restoration facilitates the recovery of macroinvertebrate abundance, diversity, and composition in estuarine communities
Historic declines in oyster populations have resulted in diminished production of ecosystem
services and habitat function in many estuaries. Due to the important role of oysters in …

Species–habitat networks elucidate landscape effects on habitat specialisation of natural enemies and pollinators
Measuring habitat specialisation is pivotal for predicting species extinctions and for
understanding consequences on ecosystem functioning. Here, we sampled pollinator and …

Shifting individual habitat specialization of a successful predator living in anthropogenic landscapes
Population expansions of successful species have gained importance as a major
conservation and management concern. The success of these 'winners' is widely attributed …

Habitat-and bay-scale connectivity of sympatric fishes in an estuarine nursery
Acoustic telemetry was used to examine habitat-and bay-scale connectivity for co-occurring
juvenile fishes, southern flounder (Paralichthys lethostigma) and red drum (Sciaenops …

Does transmitter placement or species affect detection efficiency of tagged animals in biotelemetry research?
Acoustic telemetry has quickly become a powerful tool for ecological research in aquatic
systems, yet our knowledge of in situ transmitter performance remains limited. Here, we …
