Size constraints in a real food web: predator, parasite and prey body-size relationships.

Journal Article
Leaper, R., & Huxham, M. (2002)
Size constraints in a real food web: predator, parasite and prey body-size relationships. Oikos, 99, (443-456). doi:10.1034/j.1600-0706.2002.10888.x. ISSN 0030-1299
In the absence of well-resolved food webs that include both information on predators and parasites, body-size has been proposed as the biological mechanism underlying the assu...

The thin(ning) green line? Investigating changes in Kenya's seagrass coverage

Journal Article
Harcourt, W. D., Briers, R. A., & Huxham, M. (2018)
The thin(ning) green line? Investigating changes in Kenya's seagrass coverage. Biology Letters, 14(11), https://doi.org/10.1098/rsbl.2018.0227
Knowledge of seagrass distribution is limited to a few well-studied sites and poor where resourcesare scant (e.g. Africa), hence global estimates of seagrass carbon storage ar...
