Essential dietary fatty acids affect intraspecific competition in herbivorous zooplankton
The trophic transfer efficiency at the pelagic phytoplankton-zooplankton interface is—among other factors—governed by the dietary availability of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) to herbivorous zo...

PhD opportunity!
Focusing on ecological processes offers an adaptive approach to conservation at a time of rapid environmental change
But how do we measure & conserve these processes?
This PhD will explore the use of species traits to assess ecosystem condition

Reminder to sign up to our upcoming hackathon!
We'll be discussing and testing a protocol to assess whether data/code associated with published literature is actually reproducible, and if not, why.
Registration closes on the 15th September 🕤
