Marine heat waves in the northeast Pacific Ocean create ongoing and complex disruptions of the ocean food web that may benefit some species but threaten the future of many others, a new study has ...
Microplastics — tiny pieces of plastic less than five millimetres in size — have been found in marine and freshwater animals ranging from tiny zooplankton to large whales. However, researchers are ...
Evaluation of the main hypotheses proposed for the causes of decline and failure to recover of the western Steller sea lion population depends on understanding how food web linkages affect sea lions.
New research shows that marine heat waves can reshape ocean food webs, which in turn can slow the transport of carbon to the deep sea and hamper the ocean's ability to buffer against climate change.
In the face of growing global challenges to agricultural sustainability, a new study has uncovered the critical role of soil micro-food web complexity in enhancing soil fertility and promoting crop ...
