Species composition, distribution, and zonation patterns in the intertidal seaweed assemblages from Santo Antão, Cape Verde
(Elsevier, 2023)[Abstract] Intertidal communities have been extensively studied for decades. Many of these studies have focused on macroalgae, as they are key components of many rocky coastal ecosystems. Despite this, there are still ... -
Comparative Invasion Ecology of Carpobrotus From Four Continents: Responses to Nutrients and Competition
(Oxford Academic, 2023-01-24)[Abstract] Two key hypotheses in invasion biology are that certain traits underlie invasiveness in introduced species, and that these traits are selected for during or after introduction. We tested these hypotheses by ... -
Effect of Depth across a Latitudinal Gradient in the Structure of Rhodolith Seabeds and Associated Biota across the Eastern Atlantic Ocean
(MDPI, 2023-01-12)[Abstract] Rhodolith seabeds are ‘ecosystem engineers’ composed of free-living calcareous red macroalgae, which create extensive marine habitats. This study addressed how depth influenced the structure (size and morphology) ... -
Potential Roles of Soil Microorganisms in Regulating the Effect of Soil Nutrient Heterogeneity on Plant Performance [Review]
(MDPI, 2022-12-03)[Abstract] The spatially heterogeneous distribution of soil nutrients is ubiquitous in terrestrial ecosystems and has been shown to promote the performance of plant communities, influence species coexistence, and alter ... -
The Global Spectrum of Plant Form and Function: Enhanced Species-Level Trait Dataset
(Springer Nature, 2022-12-07)[Abstract] Here we provide the ‘Global Spectrum of Plant Form and Function Dataset’, containing species mean values for six vascular plant traits. Together, these traits –plant height, stem specific density, leaf area, ...
