Latitudinal gradients in the structure and stability of marine food webs in the Southwest Atlantic

2026-07-01

Abstract excerpt

Understanding how food web structure varies across broad spatial gradients is essential for identifying general principles of ecosystem organization and resilience under global change. We analyzed seven highly resolved marine food webs spanning a latitudinal gradient from 48°S to 78°S in the Southwest Atlantic and Antarctic region to evaluate how ecosystem size, latitude, human impact, and number of species shape...
