Addressing grand ecological challenges in aquatic ecosystems: how can mesocosms be used to advance solutions? Rapid and drastic anthropogenic impacts are affecting global biogeochemical processes and driving biodiversity loss across Earth's ecosystems. In aquatic ecosystems, species distributions are shiftin...

Variability of functional and biodiversity responses to perturbations is predictable and informative - Nature Communications Measures of biodiversity and ecosystem functioning show variable responses to perturbations, complicating the prediction of responses to global change. This study shows that the variability of communi...
