Understanding species coexistence has long been a major goal of ecology. Coexistence theory for two competing species posits that intraspecific density dependence should be stronger than interspecific
Aim: Global animal populations are in decline due to destruction and degradation of their natural habitat. Understanding the factors that determine the distribution and density of threatened animal po
Environmental change and habitat fragmentation will affect population densities for many species. For those species that have locally adapted to persist in changed or stressful habitats, it is uncerta
本数据集记录了密克罗尼西亚帕劳珊瑚礁在沉积梯度下的早期演替底栖群落及珊瑚补充情况,研究周期12个月。通过部署三维附着砖并设置实验笼排除大型草食性鱼类,分析沉积作用与草食性对珊瑚礁生态系统的影响,识别珊瑚诱导物阈值与珊瑚补充阈值,为珊瑚礁恢复管理提供依据。 论文“Sedimentation and overfishing drive changes in early succession and c
