The World Register of Marine Species (WoRMS) is an authoritative classification and catalogue of marine names. The WoRMS portal and available web-services are a gateway to access a treasure-chest of information, not only on taxon names themselves, bu... Read More
Climatic clustering and longitudinal analysis with impacts on food, bioenergy, and pandemics
- Phytobiomes Journal
on Sep 15, 2022
Predicted growth in world population will put unparalleled stress on the need for sustainable energy and global food production, as well as increase the likelihood of future pandemics. In this work, we identify high-resolution environmental zones in... Read More
IsocalcR : An R package to streamline and standardize stable isotope calculations in ecological research
- Global Change Biology
on Sep 13, 2022
The use of stable isotopes to characterize ecosystem dynamics and infer leaf gas exchange processes has become increasingly prevalent over the last few decades within the ecological community. While advancements in theory and our understanding of the... Read More
Metabarcoding and applied ecology with hyperdiverse organisms: Recommendations for biological control research
- Molecular Ecology
on Sep 12, 2022
Metabarcoding is revolutionizing fundamental research in ecology by enabling large-scale detection of species and producing data that are rich with community context. However, the benefits of metabarcoding have yet to be fully realized in fields of a... Read More
Specimods: A web-based tool for producing Genbank submission files for sequenced museum specimens
- Biodiversity Information Science and Standards
- VOL. 6
on Sep 9, 2022
The expectation of published sequence data on Genbank and other sequence databases is not only a requirement for journal publication, but is incredibly valuable for continuing research in organismal evolution and ecology. The process of formatting an... Read More
Regulatory Control and the Effects of Condensation Water on Water Migration and Reverse Migration of Halostachys caspica (M.Bieb.) C.A.Mey. in Different Saline Habitats
- Forests
- VOL. 13
on Sep 8, 2022
Condensation water has been a recent focus in ecological hydrology research. As one of the main water sources that maintains the food chain in arid regions, condensation water has a significant impact on water balance in arid environments and plays a... Read More
Sequential detergent fiber assay results used for nutritional ecology research: Evidence of bias since 2012
- Wildlife Society Bulletin

Seeing the System from Above: The Use and Potential of Remote Sensing for Studying Ecosystem Dynamics
- Ecosystems
on Sep 7, 2022
AbstractRemote sensing techniques are increasingly used for studying ecosystem dynamics, delivering spatially explicit information on the properties of Earth over large spatial and multi-decadal temporal extents. Yet, there is still a gap between the... Read More
Global datasets of leaf photosynthetic capacity for ecological and earth system research
- Earth System Science Data
- VOL. 14
on Sep 7, 2022
Abstract. The maximum rate of Rubisco carboxylation (Vcmax) determines leaf photosynthetic capacity and is a key parameter for estimating the terrestrial carbon cycle, but its spatial information is lacking, hindering global ecological research. Here... Read More
Detecting Thresholds of Ecological Change in the Anthropocene
- Annual Review of Environment and Resources
- VOL. 47
on Sep 6, 2022
Ecological thresholds comprise relatively fast changes in ecological conditions, with respect to time or external drivers, and are an attractive concept in both scientific and policy arenas. However, there is considerable debate concerning the exist... Read More
Assessing poison ivy (Toxicodendron radicans) presence and functional traits in relation to land cover and biophysical factors
- Physical Geography
- VOL. 43
on Sep 3, 2022
ABSTRACT Understanding species distributions remains central to research in ecology and biogeography. Emphasis is placed on the spatial presence/absence of plants as related to underlying environmental factors; however, distributions result from both... Read More
Discerning component traits contributing to specific water use in perennial ryegrass
- New Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research
- VOL. 65
on Sep 3, 2022
ABSTRACT The productivity of perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) is constrained by summer water deficit. We hypothesised that selection for desirable water relations traits might partially mitigate this constraint. Genotypes of a 1970s, and two re... Read More
Changes in bee functional traits at community and intraspecific levels along an elevational gradient in a Mexical-type scrubland
- Oecologia
on Sep 2, 2022
Understanding the causes of morphological variation of organisms along climatic gradients has been a central challenge in ecological research. We studied the variation of community weighted mean (CWM) and two functional diversity metrics (Rao-Q and f... Read More
