A mechanistic theory for aquatic food chain length
Multiple environmental drivers of food chain length (FCL) have been proposed, but empirical support has been contradictory. Here the authors argue that the magnitude of vertical energy flux in ecological communities underlies two commonly evaluated drivers of FCL and show that the effects of these t...

| Sumario: | Multiple environmental drivers of food chain length (FCL) have been proposed, but empirical support has been contradictory. Here the authors argue that the magnitude of vertical energy flux in ecological communities underlies two commonly evaluated drivers of FCL and show that the effects of these two drivers are context-dependent. |
