Food webs, but most in general ecological networks, are often used to understand complex interactions in an ecosystem, providing insights about different ecological topics 1,2. Paradoxically, a ...

New research shows that marine heat waves can reshape ocean food webs, which in turn can slow the transport of carbon to the deep sea and hamper the ocean's ability to buffer against climate change.

Wildlife biologists used a novel technique to trace the movement of carbon through Arctic and boreal forest food webs and found that climate warming resulted in a shift from plant-based food webs to ...
