2013 journal article
Parasite predators exhibit a rapid numerical response to increased parasite abundance and reduce transmission to hosts
Ecology and Evolution, 3(13), 4427–4438.
author keywords: Commensalism; community dynamics; disease ecology; host-parasite interactions; mutualism
TL;DR:
Predators of parasites can play an important role in regulating parasite transmission, even when infection risk is high, and especially when predators can rapidly respond numerically to resource pulses, but these types of interactions might have cascading effects on entire disease systems.

ASI:Dunaliellamarine microalgae to drop-in replacement liquid transportation fuel
Environmental Progress & Sustainable Energy, 32(4), 916–925.
TL;DR:
A technically feasible and scalable thermo-catalytic process to convert the lipids into replacements for liquid transportation fuels has been developed and these alkanes can be reformed into renewable diesel via conventional catalytic hydrocarbon isomerization reactions to improve cold flow properties, if desired.

Macroinvertebrados dulceacuícolas de la Isla del Coco, Costa Rica: especies y comparación con otras islas del Pacífico Tropical Oriental
Revista De Biología Tropical, 61(2), 657–668.
TL;DR:
Diptera was the order of insects with the highest taxonomic richness and a relationship between distance and the number of families was observed supporting the premises of the Theory of island Biogeography, indicating that mountainous islands had the richest faunas.

Norditerpene alkaloid concentrations in tissues and floral rewards of larkspurs and impacts on pollinators
Biochemical Systematics and Ecology, 48, 123–131.
author keywords: Larkspur; Delphinium; Norditerpene alkaloids; Plant parts; Pollen; Nectar
TL;DR:
It is suggested that nectar with low alkaloid concentrations may be beneficial to plant fitness by limiting adverse effects on pollinator activity and optimal defense theory.

Influences of native and non-native benthivorous fishes on aquatic ecosystem degradation
Hydrobiologia, 711(1), 187–199.
author keywords: Aquatic macrophytes; Benthic macroinvertebrates; Black bullhead; Common carp; Water quality
TL;DR:
Experimental results suggest that although black bullhead tend to be tolerant of degraded ecosystems, they are not a source of physical changes to the environment known to be responsible for perpetuating degraded water quality, and increased abundance of native species, such asblack bullhead, following the invasion of common carp, may serve as an indicator of ecological conditions.

Everything you know about calories is wrong
Scientific American, 309(3), 56–59.
Contributors: R. Dunn n
MeSH headings : Animals; Cooking / methods; Dietary Carbohydrates / analysis; Dietary Fats / analysis; Dietary Proteins / analysis; Digestion; Energy Intake; Energy Metabolism; Food Labeling; Humans; Seeds
TL;DR:
The article discusses the inaccuracy of counting calories, and argues that the calorie counts on food labels can greatly differ from the calories the human body actually extracts.

Urban Warming Drives Insect Pest Abundance on Street Trees
PLoS ONE, 8(3).
Contributors: E. Meineke n, R. Dunn n , J. Sexton * & S. Frank n
MeSH headings : Analysis of Variance; Animals; Cities; Hemiptera / growth & development; North Carolina; Parasites / growth & development; Quercus / parasitology; Temperature; Trees / parasitology
TL;DR:
It is shown that the abundance of a common insect pest is positively related to temperature even when controlling for other habitat characteristics, providing the first evidence that heat can be a key driver of insect pest outbreaks on urban trees.

Effect of climate change on breeding phenology, clutch size and chick survival of an upland bird
Ibis, 155(3), 456–463.
Contributors: K. Fletcher *, D. Howarth *, A. Kirby*, R. Dunn* & A. Smith *
author keywords: breeding success; moorland; phenotypic plasticity; weather
TL;DR:
Although laying dates are advancing, climate change does not currently appear to be having an overall effect on chick survival of Red Grouse within the climate range recorded in this study.

2013 book
Every species is an insect (or nearly so): On insects, climate change, extinction, and the biological unknown
In Saving a Million Species: Extinction Risk from Climate Change (pp. 217–237).
Contributors: R. Dunn n & M. Fitzpatrick*
TL;DR:
Any estimate of the number of species on Earth at risk from climate change must begin with the question of how many species can be found on Earth, and because most species are insects, how many insect species in particular.
