Are zooplankton invasions in constructed waters facilitated by simple communities?
(The University of Waikato, 2010)The invasion of non-indigenous species is considered to be one of the leading causes of biodiversity loss globally. My research aimed to determine if constructed water bodies (e.g., water supply reservoirs, dams and ponds) ... -
Are zooplankton invasions in constructed waters facilitated by simple communities?
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2012)Aim Constructed water bodies (e.g. water supply and hydroelectricity dams, ornamental ponds) are invaded at faster rates than natural waters, but the mechanisms that lead to this pattern are uncertain. We aimed to determine ... -
Experimenting with ecosystem interaction networks in search of threshold potentials in real-world marine ecosystems
(Ecological Society of America, 2014)Thresholds profoundly affect our understanding and management of ecosystem dynamics, but we have yet to develop practical techniques to assess the risk that thresholds will be crossed. Combining ecological knowledge of ...
