The scent of death: Chemosensory assessment of predation risk by prey animals

Lee B. Kats, Lawrence M. Dill · 1 Jan 1998

It is well documented that animals take risk of predation into account when making decisions about how to behave in particular situations, often trading-off risk against opportunities for mating or acquiring energy. Such an ability implies that animals have reliable information about the risk of predation at a given place and time. Chemosensory cues are…

Chemical alarm signalling in aquatic predator-prey systems: A review and prospectus

Douglas P. Chivers, R. J. F. Smith · 1 Jan 1998

The importance of chemical cues in predator-prey interactions has recently received increasing attention from ecologists. The sources of chemicals to which prey species respond often originate as cues released by the predator (reviewed by Kats and Dill, this issue). Alternatively, cues may be released by other prey animals when they detect or are attacked by…

Lag times and exotic species: The ecology and management of biological invasions in slow-motion1

Jeffrey A. Crooks · 1 Jan 2005

:Time lags can be found throughout the invasion process, including in the arrival, establishment, and impacts of invaders. While we often lack the information necessary to generate quantitative expectations of invader performance, some types of lags are not surprising. For example, populations often grow exponentially in the early phases of invasion, and this will give…

Canonical community ordination. Part I: Basic theory and linear methods

Cajo J. F. ter Braak · 1 Jan 1994

Canonical community ordination comprises a collection of methods that relate species assemblages to their environment, in both observational studies and designed experiments. Canonical ordination differs from ordination sensu stricto in that species and environment data are analyzed simultaneously. Part I reviews the theory in a non-mathematical way with emphasis on new insights for the interpretation…

Habitat selection at multiple scales

Stephen J. Mayor, David C. Schneider, James A. Schaefer et al. · 1 Jun 2009

Habitat selection is the disproportionate use of available conditions and resources, and involves responses in space and time to perceived risks and rewards. It frequently depends on the scale of measurement, often in non-linear ways that preclude simple extrapolation across scales. More critically, animals often select different habitat components at different scales, and species vary…

Ecoscience template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the Ecoscience format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the Ecoscience template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official Taylor & Francis format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does Ecoscience use?
Ecoscience uses Author–year (Chicago, T&F) references, shown as author–year markers such as (Smith, 2023) in the text. DocuGuru formats every in-text citation and the reference list in this exact style automatically. A reference appears like this: Smith, Ada, Ben Jones, and Cara Lee. 2023. "A Representative Article Title." Ecoscience 12 (3): 45–58.
Do I need to know LaTeX to submit to Ecoscience?
No. DocuGuru generates the interact LaTeX class and compiles the PDF for you in the background, so you get a Taylor & Francis-ready Ecoscience document without writing any LaTeX. If you do want it, the LaTeX source is included in the export.
Can I import an existing draft into the Ecoscience template?
Yes. Paste or upload your current manuscript — Word, LaTeX, Markdown, or plain text — and DocuGuru reflows it into the Ecoscience format with correct headings, figures, tables, and author–year citations.
Who publishes Ecoscience?
Ecoscience is a multidisciplinary journal published by Taylor & Francis. DocuGuru's Ecoscience template matches Taylor & Francis's official submission format.
Can I export a submission-ready Ecoscience PDF?
Yes — DocuGuru produces a PDF built with the official Ecoscience template (the interact class) that is ready to submit to Taylor & Francis, together with the matching LaTeX source files.
How much does the Ecoscience template cost?
You can start writing in the Ecoscience template for free. Exporting the final submission-ready Ecoscience PDF and LaTeX source is part of DocuGuru's paid plans — see the app for current pricing.
