What's in the diet? DNA-based analysis for qualitative and quantitative assessment of animal diet
Animal diet studies are critical for understanding ecological processes such as trophic interactions, energy flow, and nutrient cycling. By examining what animals consume, ecologists gain insights into species specialization, predator-prey relationships, and ecosystem management.

Veerkracht: trekvogels kiezen voor achtergebleven zaadjes om te overleven
Als je van China naar Siberië migreert, zijn een paar tussenstops geen overbodige luxe. Voor trekvogels zijn ze zelfs cruciaal om te overleven. Maar door klimaatverandering verandert de seizoensgebonden beschikbaarheid van voedsel op deze stops. Milieuwetenschapper Yali Si heeft ontdekt dat vogels daardoor…

Evolutionary Developmental Biology of Bitterling Fish
We developed the bitterling as a unique, well-studied model organism in the area of the evolutionary ecology of brood parasitism. The bitterling-mussel relationship, interspecific mussel host preference, and mussel gill structure are studied in detail, to help understand the developmental adaptation…

General plant strategies and functions in wetlands: Global trait-based analyses
Wetland plants are distinguished from plants of other terrestrial ecosystems by their adaptations to specific habitat stresses, including waterlogged and flooding and the subsequent abundance of phytotoxic compounds.

Geometry of Vegetation Pattern
One of the effects of climate change is the phenomenon of desertification, a process that occurs in semi-arid and arid areas and causes land degradation as well as vegetation loss. Due to the lack of resources, vegetation self-organizes to sustain itself by forming large-scale spatial patterns.
