title: Data from: Considerations used by desert isopods to assess scorpion predation risk

description: Animals adjust behaviors to balance changes in predation risk against
 other vital needs. Animals must therefore collect sensory information and
 use complex risk assessment process that estimates risks and weigh costs
 and benefits entailed in different reactions. Studying this cognitive
 process is challenging, especially in nature because it requires inferring
 sensory abilities and conscious decisions from behavioral reactions. Our
 goal was to address this empirical challenge by implementing
 psychophysical principles to field research that explores considerations
 used by desert isopods (Hemilepistus reaumuri) to assess the risk of
 scorpions that hunt exclusively from within their burrows. We introduced
 various combinations of chemical and physical cues to the vicinity of the
 isopods' burrows and recorded their detailed reactions upon first
 encountering the cues. The isopods reacted defensively to scorpion odor
 but only when accompanied with excavated-soil or other odors typically
 found near scorpion burrows. Isopods also reacted defensively to piles of
 excavated soil without scorpion olfactory cues, suggesting that isopods
 take precautions even against physical disturbances that do not
 necessarily reflect predator activity. Simultaneous presence of different
 cues provoked graded responses, possibly reflecting an additive increase
 in risk estimation. We conclude that wild isopods use defensive reactions
 toward environmental signals only when the integrated perceptual
 information implies an active scorpion burrow, or when they lack data to
 refute this possibility.

title: Data from: Invasion genetics of marsh frogs (Pelophylax ridibundus sensu lato) in Switzerland

description: The marsh frog (Pelophylax ridibundus sensu lato) is the number one
 amphibian invader in Western Europe. In Switzerland, marsh frogs were
 introduced in the 1950-1960s and progressively colonized most of the
 northern parts of the country. We investigated this invasion using
 molecular tools. We mapped the cryptic presence of three monophyletic
 mitochondrial lineages (P. ridibundus, P. kurtmuelleri and P. c. f.
 bedriagae from southeastern Europe) consistent with registered
 importations by a local frog-leg industry. High nuclear diversity supports
 that invasive frogs probably originated from genetically-rich import
 batches and patterns of population differentiation confirm that multiple
 independent introduction sites were involved. Moreover, several lines of
 evidence suggest occasional hybridization with local hybridogenetic water
 frogs. This invasion emphasizes the issues of frequent amphibian releases
 and translocations at the international and regional scale for commercial
 and recreational purposes, and stresses for more adequate legislation,
 control and information to the general public. Given the parallel invasion
 by exotic pool frogs (i. e., the Italian P. bergeri has replaced the local
 P. lessonae), the situation of water frogs in Switzerland is critical. The
 water frog complex makes an alarming symbol of the anthropogenic mark left
 on wildlife diversity and distributions.

title: Data from: Simulating regimes of chemical disturbance and testing impacts in the ecosystem using a novel programmable dosing system

description: Pollution is a global issue at the frontier between ecology, environmental
 science, management, engineering and policy. Legislation requires
 experiments to determine how much contamination an ecosystem can absorb
 before there are structural or functional changes. Yet, existing methods
 cannot realistically simulate regimes of chemical disturbance and
 determine impacts to assemblages in ecosystems. This is because they lack
 ecologically relevant species and biotic interactions, are logistically
 difficult to set-up, and lack environmentally relevant regimes of chemical
 and abiotic disturbance that organisms experience in polluted areas. We
 solved these long-standing environmental, logistical, experimental and
 ecological problems by developing a programmable dosing-system. This
 dosing-system simulates, in situ, regimes of chemical disturbance to
 assemblages by manipulating the concentration, duration, timing and
 frequency of pollutants to which they are exposed. Experiments with
 priority pollutants (the metal copper and the biocide Chlorpyrifos) and
 mussel assemblages revealed consistent plumes of contamination within
 patches of mussel. Mussels at the sources of experimental plumes of copper
 created by the dosing-system, accumulated 670% more copper in their
 tissues compared to mussels 0.5-50 m away. In addition, when mussels were
 exposed to increasing concentrations of copper there was a concomitant
 increase in the amount of copper in the tissues of mussels. Combining the
 dosing-system with an established hierarchy of ecotoxicological assays
 revealed mussel assemblages exposed to copper and/or Chlorpyrifos had
 40-70% fewer worms, whilst Chlorpyrifos alone caused an 81% reduction in
 the number of amphipods and caused mussels to filter 48% fewer particles
 from the water. Combinations of copper and/or Chlorpyrifos had no effects
 on the abundance of crabs, the respiratory functions of assemblages or the
 viability of molluscan haemocytes. As global contamination accelerates we
 discuss how this technological advance will enable a diverse array of
 ecologists, mangers and policy-makers to understand and reduce pollution.

title: Data from: Bi-parental versus cooperative breeding in a passerine: fitness-maximizing strategies of males in response to risk of extra-pair paternity?

description: In socially monogamous species, males that risk cuckoldry more than others
 might gain inclusive fitness by yielding paternity to relatives. We tested
 this prediction in the Tibetan ground tit Pseudopodoces humilis, an
 unusual facultative cooperative breeder wherein most helpers (87% males)
 join a mated pair shortly before clutch completion. Extra-pair paternity
 among bi-parental broods occurred less often (26% of broods, 9% of young)
 compared to cooperative broods (68%, 25%). In the former, most extra-pair
 sires (88%) were pair breeders unrelated to the cuckolded males whereas in
 the latter, sires (87%) were mainly helpers related to the dominant male.
 Brood productivity did not differ between the bi-parental and cooperative
 breeders, but helpers' partitioning over group paternity reduced the
 realized reproductive success of helped males. After taking inclusive
 fitness into account, however, there was no difference in success of
 dominant males between the two social systems. One possible explanation
 for the differences in the rates of cuckoldry in the two systems was body
 size, for pair-bond males in bi-parental situations were significantly
 larger than those in cooperative ones. We propose two alternative
 strategies for males to maximize fitness: breed as a pair if large to
 avoid cuckoldry from helpers, or breed cooperatively if small but
 compromise some paternity to relatives. Our results provide an unusual
 route to the incidence of cooperative groups, based on constraints imposed
 by low competitive ability of breeding males rather than some external
 ecological or demographic factors.

title: Data from: Experimental reduction in dietary omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids depresses sperm competitiveness

description: The health benefits of diets containing rich sources of long-chain omega-3
 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 LC-PUFA) are well documented and include
 reductions in the risk of several diseases typical of Western societies.
 The dietary intake of n-3 LC-PUFA has also been linked to fertility, and
 there is abundant evidence that a range of ejaculate traits linked to
 fertility in humans, livestock and other animals depend on an adequate
 intake of n-3 LC-PUFA from dietary sources. However, relatively few
 studies have explored how n-3 LC-PUFA influence reproductive fitness,
 particularly in the context of sexual selection. Here, we show that
 experimental reduction in the level of n-3 LC-PUFA in the diet of guppies
 (Poecilia reticulata) depresses a male's share of paternity when
 sperm compete for fertilization, confirming that the currently observed
 trend for reduced n-3 LC-PUFA in western diets has important implications
 for individual reproductive fitness.

title: Data from: Harvest-induced phenotypic selection in an island population of moose, Alces alces

description: Empirical evidence strongly indicates that human exploitation has
 frequently led to rapid evolutionary changes in wild populations, yet the
 mechanisms involved are often poorly understood. Here we applied a
 recently developed demographic framework for analysing selection to data
 from a 20-year study of a wild population of moose, Alces alces. In this
 population, a genetic pedigree has been established all the way back to
 founders. We demonstrate harvest-induced directional selection for delayed
 birth dates in males and reduced body mass as calf in females. During the
 study period, birth date was delayed by 0.81 days per year for both sexes,
 while no significant changes occurred in calf body mass. Quantitative
 genetic analyses indicated that both traits harboured significant additive
 genetic variance. These results show that selective harvesting can induce
 strong selection which oppose natural selection. This may cause evolution
 of less favourable phenotypes that become maladaptive once harvesting
 ceases.

title: Data from: The herbivorous fish, Aplodactylus punctatus, as a potential facilitator of dispersal of the bottom kelp, Lessonia trabeculata, in Chile

description: Kelp forests are productive marine habitats known to facilitate many
 trophic and non-trophic interactions. While much of our understanding
 comes from positive effects of kelp on associated fauna, few studies focus
 on potential feedbacks that such fauna may provide to benefit kelp. This
 study aims to analyze the positive interactions between two closely
 associated fish and kelp species. Lessonia trabeculata, the bottom kelp,
 and the herbivorous fish, Aplodactylus punctatus, were sampled at four
 sites off northern-central Chile to evaluate the following: interactions
 during the ontogeny of the fish, the availability of reproductive tissue
 of the kelp blades, the effects of digestion by A. punctatus on L.
 trabeculata reproductive tissue, and the viability of zoospores after
 digestion. Our results show a network of direct and indirect positive
 interactions between these species. There was a positive correlation in
 their densities, possibly due to kelp functioning as a refuge and indirect
 food source. Juvenile A. punctatus feed on epifaunal species within the
 kelp, reducing grazer load and in turn generating a potential positive
 indirect effect on the kelp. Adult herbivorous fish consume kelp tissue as
 sustenance; when this kelp tissue is reproductive, digestion reduces
 epiphytic algal densities on the sori. Zoospores were found to remain
 viable after digestion, and microscopic sporophytes were produced at rates
 similar to those of undigested reproductive tissue. We conclude that
 positive links between A. punctatus and L. trabeculata occur along the
 geographic range distribution of both species and that this herbivorous
 fish could serve as a dispersal mechanism for L. trabeculata. To our
 knowledge, this is the first study that suggests that an herbivorous fish
 may have the potential to be a facilitator of kelp zoospore transport, and
 this may contribute positively to the recovery of natural kelp populations
 that are being intensively harvested in the region.

title: Data from: Numerical response of mammalian carnivores to rodents affects bird reproduction in temperate forests: a case of apparent competition?

description: Resource pulses such as mast seeding in temperate forests may affect
 interspecific interactions over multiple trophic levels and link different
 seed and non-seed consumers directly via predation or indirectly via
 shared predators. However, the nature and strength of interactions among
 species remain unknown for most resource pulse driven ecosystems. We
 considered five hypotheses concerning the influence of resource pulses on
 the interactions between rodents, predators and bird reproduction with
 data from northern Switzerland collected between 2010 and 2015. In
 high-rodent-abundance-years, wood warbler (Phylloscopus sibilatrix) nest
 survival was lower than in low-rodent-abundance-years, but rodents were
 not important nest predators, in contrast to rodent-hunting predators. The
 higher proportion of nests predated by rodent-hunting predators and their
 increased occurrence in high-rodent-abundance-years suggests a
 rodent-mediated aggregative numerical response of rodent-hunting
 predators, which incidentally prey on the wood warbler’s ground nests.
 There was no evidence that rodent-hunting predators responded
 behaviourally by switching prey. Lastly, nest losses caused by
 non-rodent-hunting predators were not related to rodent abundance. We show
 that wood warblers and rodents are linked via shared predators in a manner
 consistent with apparent competition, where an increase of one species
 coincides with the decrease of another species mediated by shared
 predators. Mast seeding frequency and annual seed production appear to
 have increased over the past century, which may result in more frequent
 high-rodent-abundance-years and generally higher peaking rodent
 populations. The associated increase in the magnitude of apparent
 competition may thus at least to some extent explain the wood warbler’s
 decline in much of Western Europe.

title: Data from: Spatial variation of soil respiration in a cropland under winter wheat and summer maize rotation in the North China Plain

description: Spatial variation of soil respiration (Rs) in cropland ecosystems must be
 assessed to evaluate the global terrestrial carbon budget. This study aims
 to explore the spatial characteristics and controlling factors of Rs in a
 cropland under winter wheat and summer maize rotation in the North China
 Plain. We collected Rs data from 23 sample plots in the cropland. At the
 late jointing stage, the daily mean Rs of summer maize (4.74 μmol CO2 m-2
 s-1) was significantly higher than that of winter wheat (3.77μmol CO2 m-2
 s-1). However, the spatial variation of Rs in summer maize (coefficient of
 variation, CV = 12.2%) was lower than that in winter wheat (CV = 18.5%). A
 similar trend in CV was also observed for environmental factors but not
 for biotic factors, such as leaf area index, aboveground biomass, and
 canopy chlorophyll content. Pearson’s correlation analyses based on the
 sampling data revealed that the spatial variation of Rs was poorly
 explained by the spatial variations of biotic factors, environmental
 factors, or soil properties alone for winter wheat and summer maize. The
 similarly non-significant relationship was observed between Rs and the
 enhanced vegetation index (EVI), which was used as surrogate for plant
 photosynthesis. EVI was better correlated with field-measured leaf area
 index than the normalized difference vegetation index and red edge
 chlorophyll index. All the data from the 23 sample plots were categorized
 into three clusters based on the cluster analysis of soil carbon/nitrogen
 and soil organic carbon content. An apparent improvement was observed in
 the relationship between Rs and EVI in each cluster for both winter wheat
 and summer maize. The spatial variation of Rs in the cropland under winter
 wheat and summer maize rotation could be attributed to the differences in
 spatial variations of soil properties and biotic factors. The results
 indicate that applying cluster analysis to minimize differences in soil
 properties among different clusters can improve the role of remote sensing
 data as a proxy of plant photosynthesis in semi-empirical Rs models and
 benefit the acquisition of Rs in cropland ecosystems at large scales.

title: Data from: Changes in the location of biodiversity–ecosystem function hot spots across the seafloor landscape with increasing sediment nutrient loading

description: Declining biodiversity and loss of ecosystem function threatens the
 ability of habitats to contribute ecosystem services. However, the form of
 the relationship between biodiversity and ecosystem function (BEF) and how
 relationships change with environmental change is poorly understood. This
 limits our ability to predict the consequences of biodiversity loss on
 ecosystem function, particularly in real-world marine ecosystems that are
 species rich, and where multiple ecosystem functions are represented by
 multiple indicators. We investigated spatial variation in BEF
 relationships across a 300 000 m2 intertidal sandflat by nesting
 experimental manipulations of sediment pore water nitrogen concentration
 into sites with contrasting macrobenthic community composition. Our
 results highlight the significance of many different elements of
 biodiversity associated with environmental characteristics, community
 structure, functional diversity, ecological traits or particular species
 (ecosystem engineers) to important functions of coastal marine sediments
 (benthic oxygen consumption, ammonium pore water concentrations and flux
 across the sediment–water interface). Using the BEF relationships
 developed from our experiment, we demonstrate patchiness across a
 landscape in functional performance and the potential for changes in the
 location of functional hot and cold spots with increasing nutrient loading
 that have important implications for mapping and predicating change in
 functionality and the concomitant delivery of ecosystem services.
