Shifting leaf fall duration and order of arrival thus has the potential to impact carbon cycling, even when the combined resource quantity remains constant.

➡️ Exposure duration and arrival order of leaf species strongly influenced combined leaf litter consumption. Earlier arrival of high-quality leaves enhanced feeding on low-quality leaves.

↔️ These subsidies are highly seasonally structured, yet their phenologies ⏰ are shifting with climate change 📈 .

We experimentally demonstrated how order of arrival and exposition duration of different leaf species 🍂 🍃 affect decomposition by amphipods 🦐 as a key aquatic ecosystem function.

indeed magic! its one of these enigmatic ecosystems/species that you here in lectures & books, would feel exactly the same!

6/6 Thanks to #YanZhang for leading analysis, & @leeselab.bsky.social, @loicpellissier.bsky.social, @wenyuanzhang.com, @tschenekar.bsky.social, @robinschuetz.bsky.social, @kamilhupalo.bsky.social, @mattleray.bsky.social and many more for contributing @eawag.bsky.social @bes-aquaticgroup.bsky.social

5/6 Species richness, functional, and genetic sequence diversity exhibited stronger negative responses to human activities in larger catchments. In contrast, phylogenetic diversity showed the strongest negative effects in smaller catchments.

4/6 ➡️ 2nd #paper quantified #species #richness, functional #redundancy, #phylogenetic #diversity, and genetic sequence diversity, and related them to drainage characteristics and human activities📉 .
