Habitat disturbance and hydrological parameters determine the body size and reproduction strategy of alluvial ground beetles
Environmental variability is the main driver for the variation of biological characteristics (life-history traits) of species. Therefore, life-history traits are particularly suited to identify mechanistic linkages between environmental variability and species occurrence and can help in explaining e...
