Integrating isotopic and nutritional niches reveals multiple dimensions of individual diet specialisation in a marine apex predator

Richard Grainger et al.

Summary: This study introduces a novel integration of stable isotopes and a multidimensional nutritional niche framework to explore individual diet specialisation in juvenile white sharks. The results show that white sharks are individual specialists within a generalist population niche, but their nutrient intake is consistent, suggesting they are nutritional specialists.

Micro-photoautotroph predation as a driver for trophic niche specialization in 12 syntopic Indo-Pacific parrotfish species

Georgina M. Nicholson et al.

Summary: This study investigates the diets of different parrotfish species and finds that they mainly target protein-rich micro-photoautotrophs. The research also reveals differences in the taxonomic composition of core biota among the parrotfish species, suggesting resource partitioning.

A functional perspective on the meaning of the term 'herbivore': patterns versus processes in coral reef fishes

Sterling B. Tebbett et al.

Summary: Herbivorous fishes are an important group in coral reef ecosystems and have been extensively studied. However, challenges remain in quantifying patterns versus processes. This article explores how the definition of 'herbivorous reef fishes' hinders the translation between herbivore abundance and herbivory processes. The authors suggest that considering the difficulty of translating patterns in herbivore abundance to herbivory processes and focusing on quantifying herbivory in the epilithic algal matrix (EAM) will be crucial for comprehensive understanding of herbivory on Anthropocene coral reefs.

Photoperiod influences the shape and scaling of freshwater phytoplankton responses to light and temperature

Meredith E. Theus et al.

Summary: Light fluctuations have direct effects on the physiology and ecology of photoautotrophs and may also affect the sensitivity of organisms to other environmental factors. This study investigates how photoperiod regime influences the interactive effects of temperature and irradiance on the growth rate of phytoplankton populations. The findings suggest that photoperiod alters the individual effects of temperature on algal growth rates and highlights the need for more research in this area.

Scarus spinus, crustose coralline algae and cyanobacteria: an example of dietary specialization in the parrotfishes

Georgina M. Nicholson et al.

Summary: Niche differentiation is important for the maintenance of biodiversity and species coexistence, and this study highlights the extensive trophic niche partitioning between parrotfishes. The specialized feeding behavior of Scarus spinus on protein-rich microphotoautotrophs associated with crustose coralline algae is revealed, emphasizing the need for high-resolution species-specific dietary data for parrotfishes.

Resource limitation determines realized thermal performance of consumers in trophodynamic models

Anna C. Vinton et al.

Summary: Recent research has shown that changes in resource availability can impact a consumer's thermal performance curve. When resources decline, the optimal temperature and breadth of thermal performance also decrease, increasing the risk of warming. This study investigates how temperature affects consumer-resource dynamics and the potential for changes in the consumer's thermal performance curve to alter extinction risk.

Ecomorphological divergence and trophic resource partitioning in 15 syntopic Indo-Pacific parrotfishes (Labridae: Scarini)

Georgina M. Nicholson et al.

Summary: The research shows that interspecific differences in cranial morphology among parrotfish species, such as Scarus and Chlorurus, reflect trophic partitioning in feeding substrata, indicating that these species achieve nutritional resource differentiation by utilizing different feeding substrata.

Targeted predator defenses of sponges shape community organization and tropical marine ecosystem function

Janie L. Wulff

Summary: Specific predators targeting sponges have significant impacts on community organization, ecosystem function, and diversity maintenance. Studies reveal that predators control sponge distribution and abundance, with preferences and palatability varying among different predator species.

Is acidification of samples for isotopic analysis of carbon and nitrogen necessary for shoreline marine species?

Larissa M. Pires-Teixeira et al.

Summary: The effects of acidification on marine organism samples in terms of their carbon and nitrogen stable isotopes were studied, showing that organisms with low CaCO3 content had no difference in carbon isotopic signatures after acidification, while those with high CaCO3 content did show differences.
