Salmon are an archetypal spatial subsidy transporting marine-derived nutrients and contaminants to inland freshwater and terrestrial food webs. When considering past and present ecosystems in Aotearoa, we should appreciate the role of diad…

Aquatic-terrestrial food webs are inextricably linked through reciprocal exchanges of subsidies. New synthesis explores their benefits as limiting resources that increase consumer fitness and ecosystem production, but also their dark side …

Invasive species can disrupt food web energy dynamics by altering pelagic-benthic pathways. In this example, interactions between invasive species and nutriment enrichment influenced concentrations of LC-PUFAs in key consumers, indicating …

Testing the landscape theory of #foodweb architecture in a massive lake shows evidence that large, mobile predators integrate energy from different trophic pathways. Traits such as body size and foraging behavior help predict the structure…
