- This paper uncovered previously unknown changes triggered by drought in sub-network structures in food webs, and the organisational reassembly that helped mitigate the effect of species loss and confer stability in these networks. The paper formed the front cover of the Nature Climate Change September 2016 issue (https://www.nature.com/nclimate/volumes/6/issues/9). The work was partly funded by NERC (NE/J02256X/1, £345k, 2012), and has led to participation in an international consortium in defining the future research directions of networked ecosystems (https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tree.2015.12.003), and international collaborations with University of Campinas, Brazil (gqromero@unicamp.br), Syngenta Crop Protection AG, Switzerland (alan.raybould@syngenta.com), AgroŽcologie, AgroSup Dijon, INRA, France (david.bohan@inra.fr).
