“…Thus, in this case of constant predator density, higher temperatures favor the prey and lower temperatures favor the predator. This supports the conclusion put forth in the case of grasshoppers and spiders (see Logan et al, 2006;Joern et al, 2006). This case is also applicable to grasshoppers, for example, that are preyed upon during a given period of time by migratory birds.…”

Specifically relevant to this present work, and providing some of the motivation, the authors and their colleagues (Joern et al, 2005Logan et al, 2006Logan et al, , 2007Wolesensky and Logan, 2007) have experimentally examined and mathematically modeled temperature-dependent wolf spidergrasshopper interactions in grassland ecosystems; and, Logan and Wolesensky (2007a) have investigated predation in a snake-vole system under a stochastic temperature regime. All of these works are discrete-time models and based upon defining a temperaturedependent, predator functional response that modifies the search time for the predator or the daily activity time for the prey.…”

Studies document the fact that temperature changes strongly affect interactions in many consumer-resource systems through altered, or shifted, phenologies. The mistiming of events, such as migration or emergence times, or the contraction or expansion of development times can upset the normal synchronization and lead to increased or decreased predation events. In this paper, we formulate a continuous time, phenologically-structured model of predator-prey interactions that is driven by temperature variations. It is particularly applicable to arthropod interactions because their development rates are so strongly temperature related. The model takes the form of a system of partial differential-integral equations for the species' population densities in development-time variables. In special cases, the model is analytically tractable and we find a closed-form solution. By calculating density variations under different temperature regimes, the model gives a quantitative method for assessing the effects of global temperature change on consumer-resource interactions.

“…Community structure and abundance of soil arthropods in a site may show seasonal variations; in particular, they are significantly affected by conditions such as the formation of different soil microclimates; alterations in the resource availability and changes in the food web (Logan et al 2006). The climatic changes can occur in a wide range depending on the altitude, lead to alterations in the community structure of arthropods and can affect the activity rates of some species.…”

The appearance of spider (Araneae) and beetle (Coleoptera) assemblages found in nests of great reed warbler Acrocephalus arundinaceus was studied, firstly to investigate breeding success and the amount of precipitation as potential factors which might affect the abundance and species richness of both groups. In addition, we compared the diversity of spider and beetle assemblages between nests found in different reed habitats, and considered the position of nests (above water or dry ground). In this study we selected five different randomly chosen reed habitats: two mining ponds, two small canals and one large canal. Great Reed Warbler nests were collected either shortly after fledging, or after the clutch had failed. Altogether, 12 species of spider and 19 species of beetle were collected. In both groups there was no significant difference in abundance between successful, lost and cuckoo-parasitized nests; however, there was a significant difference in species richness between the three nest categories in spider assemblages, which was not the case in beetle assemblages. The amount of precipitation did not affect beetle or spider abundance; only the species richness of spiders showed significant growth. Furthermore, we found no significant relationship between vegetation cover and the species richness and abundance of spiders and beetles. The diversity of both groups differed significantly according to reed habitat: beetle assemblages were most diverse by the large canal and spiders at the mining ponds.
