Bird's nest ferns promote resource sharing by centipedes (2019)
Journal Article
Phillips, J., Chung, A. Y. C., Edgecombe, G. D., & Ellwood, F. (2020). Bird's nest ferns promote resource sharing by centipedes. Biotropica, 52(2), 335-344. https://doi.org/10.1111/btp.12713

Bird's nest ferns (Asplenium spp.) support large numbers of invertebrates, including centipedes. As top invertebrate predators, centipedes drive ecosystem function, for example, by regulating decomposer populations, but we know little of their ecolog...

Soil microbial biomass increases along elevational gradients in the tropics and subtropics but not elsewhere (2019)
Journal Article
He, X., Hou, E., Veen, G. F., Ellwood, M. D. F., Dijkstra, P., Sui, X., …Chu, C. (2020). Soil microbial biomass increases along elevational gradients in the tropics and subtropics but not elsewhere. Global Ecology and Biogeography, 29(2), 345-354. https://doi.org/10.1111/geb.13017

Aim: Our aim is to use elevational gradients to quantify the relationship between temperature and ecosystem functioning. Ecosystem functions such as decomposition, nutrient cycling and carbon storage are linked with the amount of microbial biomass in...
