Food-web energy fluxes, energy transfer efficiency, and diversity respond distinctively to pollution and water diversion in rivers
(Wiley, 2024-03)
Water diversion and pollution are two pervasive stressors for river ecosystems that often co-occur. The individual effects of both stressors on river communities and energy transfer across the food webs are well described; ...
Using biological traits to assess diet selection: the case of the Pyrenean Desman
(Oxford University Press, 2023-12)
Traditionally, researchers have assessed diet selection by comparing consumed versus available taxa. However, taxonomic assignment is probably irrelevant for predators, who likely base their selection on characteristics ...
Treated and highly diluted, but wastewater still impacts diversity and energy fluxes of freshwater food webs
(Elsevier, 2023-11)
Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) have greatly improved water quality globally. However, treated effluents still contain a complex cocktail of pollutants whose environmental effects might go unnoticed, masked by additional ...
