The paper shows that resource supply dynamics determine whether ecosystems are stable, chaotic, or infeasible, with externally-supplied resources promoting stability.

The paper resolves May's stability paradox by showing resource diversity stabilizes ecosystems through computer simulations and analytical methods, contradicting May's prediction and highlighting the importance of resource dynamics.

The paper identifies asymmetric co-substrate usage at a metabolic branch point as a mechanism that enables flux switching and drives overflow metabolism, validated through modeling and experimental data in yeast.

This study shows that methodological choices in correlation tests for ecological time series can lead to spurious results or missed associations.

The paper introduces permute-match tests to detect significant correlations between time series with nonstationarity and limited replicates, showing improved p-value bounds over traditional permutation tests.

The paper introduces a nonparametric statistical test for detecting correlations between time series, showing it outperforms existing methods in controlling false positives and detecting true relationships.

The paper reviews three causal inference methods for ecological time series and highlights their limitations and assumptions.
