Journal ArticleDOI
Eco-evolutionary feedbacks in community and ecosystem ecology: interactions between the ecological theatre and the evolutionary play.
David M. Post,Eric P. Palkovacs +1 more
TL;DR: The alewife–zooplankton system provides the most complete evidence for eco-evolutionary feedbacks, but other systems highlight the potential for Eco-Evolutionary Feedbacks in a wide variety of natural systems.
Journal ArticleDOI
The ecological importance of intraspecific variation
Simone Des Roches,David M. Post,Nash E. Turley,Joseph K. Bailey,Andrew P. Hendry,Michael T. Kinnison,Jennifer A. Schweitzer,Eric P. Palkovacs +7 more
TL;DR: A meta-analysis comparing the ecological effects of variation within a species with the effects of species replacement or renewal shows that intraspecific effects may be comparable to, or sometimes stronger than, species effects.
Journal ArticleDOI
Global urban signatures of phenotypic change in animal and plant populations.
Marina Alberti,Cristian Correa,John M. Marzluff,Andrew P. Hendry,Eric P. Palkovacs,Kiyoko M. Gotanda,Victoria M. Hunt,Travis M. Apgar,Yuyu Zhou +8 more
TL;DR: Evidence on the mechanisms linking urban development patterns to rapid evolutionary changes for species that play important functional roles in communities and ecosystems is presented and a clear urban signal is shown.
Journal ArticleDOI
Niche Construction Theory: A Practical Guide for Ecologists
TL;DR: By highlighting the ecological and evolutionary ramifications of changes that organisms bring about in ecosystems, NCT helps link ecosystem ecology to evolutionary biology, potentially leading to a deeper understanding of how ecosystems change over time.
Journal ArticleDOI
Intraspecific variation in a predator affects community structure and cascading trophic interactions.
TL;DR: The results demonstrate that intraspecific phenotypic variation of predators can regulate community structure and ecosystem processes by modifying the form and strength of complex trophic interactions.
