The role of functional traits and trade-offs in structuring phytoplankton communities: scaling from cellular to ecosystem level.
Trait-based approaches to community structure are increasingly used in terrestrial ecology. We show that such an approach, augmented by a mechanistic analysis of trade-offs among functional traits, can be successfully used to explain community composition of marine phytoplankton along environmental gradients. Our analysis of literature on major functional traits in phytoplankton, such as parame...
متن کاملSeparating behavioral and physiological mechanisms in testosterone-mediated trade-offs.
Testosterone often mediates trade-offs between reproduction and other life-history traits, which are usually investigated using testosterone implants. However, this approach does not distinguish between the physiological and behavioral effects of testosterone. We studied a wild game bird, the red grouse Lagopus lagopus scoticus, and took a new approach to investigate mechanisms linking elevated...

متن کاملTemporal trade-offs between nestling provisioning and defence against nest predators in blue tits
0003-3472 2013 The Authors. Published on behalf http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.anbehav.2013.03.043 Offspring provisioning and nest defence are important forms of parental care. In birds, parents that engage in nest defence behaviour have to interrupt nestling provisioning with potentially harmful consequences for offspring growth and condition. To maximize fitness, parents should trade off optimal...
متن کاملTrade-offs, Transitivity, and Temkin †
The last few years have seen a number of new and important publications in moral theory. Arguably none more important than Larry S. Temkin’s Rethinking the Good: Moral Ideals and the Nature of Practical Reasoning. This fascinating work highlights and explores in depth a seemingly fundamental inconsistency in our own axiological beliefs. Put roughly, the inconsistency arises given our general wi...
