Check out Jordan’s interview for the podcast The Naked Scientists in which he talks about his recent work on the nutritional ecology of spiders in the field! The paper, published recently in Oikos, highlights how nutrients influence the trophic interactions of spiders in the field. The interview delves into the underpinning theory, including nutrient-specific foraging, and how this might be useful for agricultural management. The rest of the special edition of the podcast is focused on some incredible research on animals (bats, leeches and elephants – what a combo)!
