Journal ArticleDOI

Continental-scale decrease in net primary productivity in streams due to climate warming

TL;DR: In this article, the authors use a model of diel dissolved oxygen dynamics, combined with high-frequency measurements of dissolved oxygen, light and temperature, to estimate the temperature sensitivities of gross primary production and ecosystem respiration in streams across six biomes, from the tropics to the arctic tundra.
Journal ArticleDOI

The fine line between mutualism and parasitism: complex effects in a cleaning symbiosis demonstrated by multiple field experiments

TL;DR: These are the first field experimental results to demonstrate shifts in a freshwater cleaning symbiosis in a system involving crayfish and branchiobdellid annelids, showing shifts along a symbiosis continuum with the maximum benefits to the host at intermediate symbiont densities.
Journal ArticleDOI

Servants, scoundrels, and hitchhikers: current understanding of the complex interactions between crayfish and their ectosymbiotic worms (Branchiobdellida)

TL;DR: It is shown that branchiobdellidans affect crayfish in various ways depending on branchiOBdellidan species, abundance, and ecological context, and the utility and challenges of using thecrayfish–branchiobDellidan association as a model system for ecological and evolutionary research are evaluated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Preventing overexploitation in a mutualism: partner regulation in the crayfish–branchiobdellid symbiosis

TL;DR: It is concluded that crayfish can use grooming to reduce worm numbers, which could lower the potential for gill damage, and that the level of grooming varies between cray fish species.
