Journal ArticleDOI
Are invasive species a major cause of extinctions
TL;DR: The question, are aliens generally responsible for widespread extinctions?
Journal ArticleDOI
Ecological consequences of phenotypic plasticity.
Benjamin G. Miner,Sonia E. Sultan,Steven G. Morgan,Dianna K. Padilla,Dianna K. Padilla,Rick A. Relyea +5 more
TL;DR: An expanding body of work is highlighted that examines how plasticity can affect all levels of ecological organization through effects on demographic parameters, direct and indirect species interactions, such as competition, predation, and coexistence, and ultimately carbon and nutrient cycles.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ecological neighborhoods: scaling environmental patterns
John F. Addicott,John M. Aho,Michael F. Antolin,Dianna K. Padilla,John S. Richardson,Daniel A. Soluk +5 more
TL;DR: There is no single ecological neighborhood for any given organism, but rather a number of neighborhoods, each appropriate to different processes, which provide the scales necessary for assessing environmental patterning relative to particular ecological processes for a given species.
Journal ArticleDOI
Beyond ballast water: aquarium and ornamental trades as sources of invasive species in aquatic ecosystems
TL;DR: Although ballast water has received much attention as a source of aquatic invasive species, aquariums and trade in aquarium and ornamental species are emerging as another important source for species likely to invade aquatic habitats as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Plastic inducible morphologies are not always adaptive: the importance of time delays in a stochastic environment
TL;DR: A mathematical model for predicting the expected fitness of phenotypically plastic organisms experiencing a variable environment finds that although plasticity is generally adaptive when time lags are short, plasticity can be disadvantageous for longer lag times.
