The cycles of the key nutrient elements nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) have been massively
altered by anthropogenic activities. Thus, it is essential to understand how photosynthetic …

The effect of Ocean Acidification (OA) on marine biota is quasi-predictable at best. While
perturbation studies, in the form of incubations under elevated pCO 2 , reveal sensitivities and …

Ecology Letters (2011) 14: 852–862 Abstract Synergistic interactions between multiple
limiting resources are common, highlighting the importance of co‐limitation as a constraint on …

Effective conservation requires rigorous baselines of pristine conditions to assess the
impacts of human activities and to evaluate the efficacy of management. Most coral reefs are …

Declines in coral cover are generally associated with increases in the abundance of fleshy
algae. In many cases, it remains unclear whether algae are responsible, directly or indirectly, …

We reviewed over 407 global seaweed introduction events and have increased the total
number of introduced seaweed species to 277. Using binomial tests we show that several algal …

Social network analysis provides a broad and complex perspective on animal sociality that
is widely applicable to almost any species. Recent applications demonstrate the utility of …

We have developed the chemistry for preparing a universal probe and the appropriate nano-
and microparticle labels that can be used to do highly selective multiplexed detection of …

Nutrient availability and herbivory control the biomass of primary producer communities to
varying degrees across ecosystems. Ecological theory, individual experiments in many …

Consumer and resource control of diversity in plant communities have long been treated as
alternative hypotheses. However, experimental and theoretical evidence suggests that …
