“Linking Biotic Interactions to Species Stability” just got a major update. We’ve refined the analyses, clarified the narrative, and added pedagogical boxes with simple examples to illustrate our framework. Check it out:

Linking biotic interactions to species stability
Ecological communities are often composed of many species, each interacting in complex ways. This complexity makes predictions of species responses to disturbances challenging. Here, we analyze dynami...

Making sense of (sublinear) density dependence
Sublinear density dependence has been reported in numerous empirical studies and yet it is seemingly incompatible with most resource-explicit competition models. Reconciling this disconnect will either necessitate substantive revision of empirical methods or the assumptions of resource competition theory, but it also presents opportunities for original research with wide-ranging implications.

Microbial communities can harbor many species that do not coexist in pairs, yet can coexist in the full community. Here we provide the mathematical foundations of emergent coexistence, and explain why it can't be predicted from pairwise tests

How do ecological communities respond to pulse perturbations (e.g. storms, wildfires)? We have a solid theory for stable fixed points, but what about cycles, transients, or chaos? In this preprint, we introduce a unified framework for these nonequilibrium cases. 1/7

Are type 3 functional responses just statistical apparitions?
Type 3 (sigmoidal) functional responses can protect rare prey from predation, but such functional responses are not often described. It is also not clear that factors that are hypothesized to promote...
