Early naturalists suggested that predation intensity increases toward the tropics, affecting fundamental ecological and evolutionary processes by latitude, but empirical support is still limited. Several studies have measured consumption rates across latitude at large scales, with variable results. Moreover, how predation affects prey community composition at such geographic scales remains unknown. Using standardized experiments that spanned 115° of latitude, at 36 nearshore sites along both coasts of the Americas, we found that marine predators have both higher consumption rates and consistently stronger impacts on biomass and species composition of marine invertebrate communities in warmer tropical waters, likely owing to fish predators. Our results provide robust support for a temperature-dependent gradient in interaction strength and have potential implications for how marine ecosystems will respond to ocean warming.

About Me
I hold a degree in Biological Sciences from the University of São Paulo (1983), a master's degree in Ecology from the State University of Campinas (1988) and a PhD in Ecology from the State University of Campinas (1993). I completed a postdoctoral internship at Bocas Research Station - Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute, Panama (2008-2009). I am currently a Full Professor at the Federal University of Paraná, the editor of Tunicata for the World Register of Marine Species (WORMS) database and the Taxonomic Catalog of Brazilian Fauna (CTFB), and associate editor of the journals Zoologia and NeoBiota. I was president of the Brazilian Society of Zoology (2012-2016), coordinator of the Graduate program in Zoology (1998-2000) and of the Graduate program in Ecology and Conservation (2006-2008, 2020-2022), president of the Research Committee of the Biological Sciences Institute - UFPR (2006) and head of the Department of Zoology (2015-2017). My main research interests are taxonomy and systematics of Ascidiacea, ecology of rocky shores and marine bioinvasion. e-mail: rmrocha@ufpr.br
