Do priority effects outweigh environmental filtering in a guild of dominant freshwater macroinvertebrates?

The paper investigates whether priority effects or environmental filtering shape the distribution of dominant freshwater macroinvertebrates, finding that priority effects, not environmental filtering, determine species co-occurrence and dominance.

Evolution of density-dependent movement during replicated experimental range expansions

The paper tests evolutionary changes in density-dependent movement during range expansions using Tetrahymena thermophila, finding negative density-dependent movement at range margins and reduced core population growth.

Dynamic species classification of microorganisms across time, abiotic and biotic environments - a sliding window approach

This paper introduces a sliding window approach for classifying microorganisms under dynamic environmental conditions, showing it outperforms simplistic methods and matches manual classification accuracy.

Upstream trophic structure modulates downstream community dynamics via resource subsidies.

The paper shows that upstream community structure affects downstream community dynamics through resource subsidies without dispersal.
