Food-chain length alters community responses to global change in aquatic systems. Nat. Clim. Chang., 3, 228-233.Hansson, L.-A., and others. 2013. Food-chain length alters community responses to global change in aquatic systems. Nat. Clim. Chang. 3: 228-233. doi:10.1038/nclimate1689...
Synergies between large-scale environmental changes, such as climate change(1) and increased humic content (brownification)(2), will have a considerable impact on future aquatic ecosystems. On the basis of modelling, monitoring and experimental data, we demonstrate that community responses to global ...
there is not a role for certified shrimp, tilapia or pangasius exported to Europe, North America and Japan, but, rather, that it is important to also consider regional certification schemes that are viable for smaller producers with an emphasis on regional consumption patterns and food safety ...
However, we were particularly interested in the patterns of two groups of noxious phytoplankton - Raphidophytes and Cyanobacteria. Therefore, the biomass of these groups as well as total PB were examined in more detail. We used Raphidophytes as proxy for G. semen, as this species accounted ...
The successful colonization of new habitats has played a fundamental role during the evolution of life. Salinity is one of the strongest barriers for organisms to cross, which has resulted in the evolution of distinct marine and non-marine (including bot
Global freshwater fish species richness and % of endemic richness patterns at the drainage basin grain (after Tedesco et al., 2017a). Current major threats to freshwater biodiversity include climate change, habitat modification and pollution from land-use, habitat fragmentation and flow regime homogeni...
Lower toxicity.Biogas-pathway fuels are far less toxic to humans and aquatic life than ammonia. Ammonia is toxic to aquatic life at concentrations of 0.07 mg/liter, making it 1,000 times more deadly than current heavy fuel oil, and raises major concerns about the environmental impact of spills...
Low carbon policies and renewable electricity deployment also considered in this study led to a considerable co-benefit removal of mercury. By investigating energy and fuel use patterns under the IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) A1B, A2, B1, and B2 scenarios ...
In conjunction with a trait correlation analysis (Supplementary Fig. 9a and b), this shows that no single trait was unduly influential on the patterns we found. Do these patterns of rarity reflect heterogeneity in habitat use by the rare taxa? To explore this we compared the frequencies of ...
In the Anthropocene, non-native freshwater fish introductions and translocations have occurred extensively worldwide. However, their global distribution patterns and the factors influencing their establishment remain poorly understood. We analyze a compr
