Glob Chang Biol . 2024 Apr; 30(4):e17257. PMID: 38572701
Countries are expanding marine protected area (MPA) networks to mitigate fisheries declines and support marine biodiversity. However, MPA impact evaluations typically assess total fish biomass. Here, we examine how fish...

Xu C, Silliman B, Chen J, Li X, Thomsen M, Zhang Q, et al.
Science . 2023 Nov; 382(6670):589-594. PMID: 37917679
Restoring vegetation in degraded ecosystems is an increasingly common practice for promoting biodiversity and ecological function, but successful implementation is hampered by an incomplete understanding of the processes that limit...

Li X, Wang H, McCauley D, Altieri A, Silliman B, Lefcheck J, et al.
Sci Adv . 2023 Aug; 9(32):eadg3800. PMID: 37556546
To fulfill sustainable development goals, many countries are expanding efforts to conserve ecologically and societally critical coastal ecosystems. Although megafauna profoundly affect the functioning of ecosystems, they are neglected as...

Hensel M, Patrick C, Orth R, Wilcox D, Dennison W, Gurbisz C, et al.
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A . 2023 May; 120(23):e2220678120. PMID: 37252966
Global change has converted many structurally complex and ecologically and economically valuable coastlines to bare substrate. In the structural habitats that remain, climate-tolerant and opportunistic species are increasing in response...

Brandl S, Lefcheck J, Bates A, Rasher D, Norin T
Biol Rev Camb Philos Soc . 2022 Sep; 98(1):1-18. PMID: 36054431
All animals on Earth compete for free energy, which is acquired, assimilated, and ultimately allocated to growth and reproduction. Competition is strongest within communities of sympatric, ecologically similar animals of...

Orth R, Dennison W, Wilcox D, Batiuk R, Landry J, Gurbisz C, et al.
J Environ Manage . 2022 Aug; 321:115901. PMID: 35998533
Synthesizing large, complex data sets to inform resource managers towards effective environmental stewardship is a universal challenge. In Chesapeake Bay, a well-studied and intensively monitored estuary in North America, the...

Duffy J, Stachowicz J, Reynolds P, Hovel K, Jahnke M, Sotka E, et al.
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A . 2022 Aug; 119(32):e2121425119. PMID: 35914147
Distribution of Earth's biomes is structured by the match between climate and plant traits, which in turn shape associated communities and ecosystem processes and services. However, that climate-trait match can...

Quimbayo J, Silva F, Barreto C, Pavone C, Lefcheck J, Leite K, et al.
Curr Biol . 2022 Jul; 32(14):R765-R766. PMID: 35882192
The global COVID-19 pandemic has presented a unique opportunity to explore the consequences of illegal exploitation on wildlife communities, as it continues to have wide-reaching impacts on multiple sectors, including...

Ramus A, Lefcheck J, Long Z
Ecology . 2022 Jun; 103(11):e3796. PMID: 35724974
Relatively few studies have attempted to resolve the pathways through which the effects of biodiversity on ecosystem functioning cascade from one trophic level to another. Here, we manipulated the richness...

Nat Ecol Evol . 2022 Apr; 6(6):684-692. PMID: 35449460
Diet and body mass are inextricably linked in vertebrates: while herbivores and carnivores have converged on much larger sizes, invertivores and omnivores are, on average, much smaller, leading to a...
