DOI: 10.1002/ecy.4044
Abstract: The Living Planet Index (LPI) is a crucial tool to track global biodiversity change, but necessarily sacrifices information to summarize thousands of population trends into a single communicable index. Evaluating when and how this information… read more here.

Microplastics and nanoplastics: would they affect global biodiversity change?
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "Environmental Science and Pollution Research"
DOI: 10.1007/s11356-019-05414-5
Abstract: Micro(nano)plastics, new emerging contaminants, are ubiquitously found in the environment due to continuous release and accumulation. Widespread micro(nano)plastics can increase their exposure to organisms, pose threats to the ecological environment and human health, and potentially… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/d41586-020-00975-9
Abstract: The timing of disruptions to biodiversity associated with global warming is a key, but little-explored, dimension of change. Will losses in biodiversity occur all at once, or be spread out over time? Many species will… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41467-018-04889-z
Abstract: Estimates of recent biodiversity change remain inconsistent, debated, and infrequently assessed for their functional implications. Here, we report that spatial scale and type of biodiversity measurement influence evidence of temporal biodiversity change. We show a… read more here.

DOI: 10.1098/rstb.2022.0198
Abstract: Detecting biodiversity change and identifying its causes is challenging because biodiversity is multifaceted and temporal data often contain bias. Here, we model temporal change in species' abundance and biomass by using extensive data describing the… read more here.
