Cathemerality: a key temporal niche
Given the marked variation in abiotic and biotic conditions between day and night, many
species specialise their physical activity to being diurnal or nocturnal, and it was long …

Ecosystem functioning across the diel cycle in the Anthropocene
Given the marked differences in environmental conditions and active biota between daytime
and nighttime, it is almost inevitable that ecosystem functioning will also differ. However …

Disentangling temporal food web dynamics facilitates understanding of ecosystem functioning
Studying how food web structure and function vary through time represents an opportunity to
better comprehend and anticipate ecosystem changes. Yet, temporal studies of highly …

Plant–pollinator network change across a century in the subarctic
Animal-mediated pollination is a vital ecosystem service to crops and wild plants, and long-
term stability of plant–pollinator interactions is therefore crucial for maintaining plant …

Differences in prey availability across space and time lead to interaction rewiring and reshape a predator–prey metaweb
Abstract Space and time promote variation in network structure by affecting the likelihood of
potential interactions. However, little is known about the relative roles of ecological and …

Shortcomings of reusing species interaction networks created by different sets of researchers
Given the requisite cost associated with observing species interactions, ecologists often
reuse species interaction networks created by different sets of researchers to test their …

Seasonal variation in impact of non‐native species on tropical seed dispersal networks
Invasive non‐native species can alter animal‐mediated seed dispersal interactions and
ultimately affect the stability of recipient communities. The degree of such disturbances …

The contribution of mutualistic interactions to functional and phylogenetic diversity
Reduction of functional diversity (FD) and phylogenetic diversity (PD) likely affects
ecosystem functions and reduces the potential of communities to respond to changes, such …

Pollinator competition and the structure of floral resources
D Sponsler, A Iverson, I Steffan‐Dewenter - Ecography, 2023 - Wiley Online Library
The mutualism between plants and pollinators is built upon the trophic ecology of flowers
and florivores. Yet the ecology of flowers‐as‐food is left implicit in most studies of plant …
