Feb 14, 2024 · We found that land-use change to plantations consistently altered energy distribution at the base of food webs by reducing total herbivory and fungivory, while increasing bacterivory and soil...
May 3, 2024 · A study provides insights into how energy flows in the food webs that connect soil- and canopy-dwelling organisms in tropical ecosystems with high biodiversity.
Nov 22, 2017 · Here, we use a general food-web model as a test bed for exploring the impact of climate change on a community: how climate change leads to extinctions and invasions, and ultimately to changes in ecosystem function.

Oct 12, 2017 · Better understanding of food webs in seasonal environments, including their vulnerability and resilience to climate change, requires a multi-season perspective.
Jan 27, 2020 · On land, climate change is increasing precipitation variability and the probability of extreme dry and wet events, and long-term warming and increasing atmospheric water deficits are increasing physiological and hydrological stress and ecosystem flammability.

Dec 1, 2016 · Our review highlights two main concepts: (i) climate change can have direct effects on plant nutrient content by shifting plant phenology, physiology, and growth, potentially altering bottom-up food web processes; and (ii) climate change can have direct and indirect effects on predator and herbivore phenology, physiology, and feeding behaviors ...
Aug 20, 2024 · The Amazon rain forest absorbs one-fourth of the CO2 absorbed by all the land on Earth. The amount absorbed today, however, is 30% less than it was in the 1990s because of deforestation. A major motive for deforestation is cattle ranching.
