• Foraging tactics in dynamic sea-ice habitats affect individual state in a long-ranging seabird 

      Tarroux, Arnaud; Cherel, Yves; Fauchald, Per; Kato, Akiko; Love, Oliver P.; Ropert-Coudert, Yan; Spreen, Gunnar; Varpe, Øystein; Weimerskirch, Henri; Yoccoz, Nigel; Zahn, Sandrine; Descamps, Sebastien (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)
      1. Individual heterogeneity in diet and foraging behaviour is common in wild animal populations, and can be a strong determinant of how populations respond to environmental changes. Within populations, variation in foraging ...
    • The important role of sponges in carbon and nitrogen cycling in a deep-sea biological hotspot 

      Hanz, Ulrike; Riekenberg, Philip; de Kluijver, Anna; van der Meer, Marcel; Middelburg, Jack J.; de Goeij, Jasper M.; Bart, Martijn C.; Wurz, Erik; Colaço, Ana; Duineveld, Gerard C. A.; Reichart, Gert-Jan; Rapp, Hans Tore; Mienis, Furu (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)
      Deep-sea sponge grounds are hotspots of biodiversity, harbouring thriving ecosystems in the otherwise barren deep sea. It remains unknown how these sponge grounds survive in this food-limited environment. Here, we unravel ...
    • Probing of mortality rate by staying alive: The growth-reproduction trade-off in a spatially heterogeneous environment 

      Ejsmond, Anna; Kozłowski, Jan; Ejsmond, Maciej Jan (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)
      1. In many annual plants, mollusks, crustaceans and ectothermic vertebrates, growth accompanies reproduction. The growth curves of these organisms often exhibit a complex shape, with episodic cessations or accelerations ...
    • Trait-based approaches as ecological time machines: Developing tools for reconstructing long-term variation in ecosystems 

      Brown, Kerry A.; Bunting, M. Jane; Carvalho, Fabio; de Bello, Francesco; Mander, Luke; Marcisz, Katarzyna; Mottl, Ondrej; Reitalu, Triin; Svenning, Jens-Christian (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)
      Research over the past decade has shown that quantifying spatial variation in ecosystem properties is an effective approach to investigating the effects of environmental change on ecosystems. Yet, current consensus among ...
