DOI: 10.1007/s11852-017-0518-4
Abstract: Coastal dunes are an essential part of beach-dune systems. Dunes systems have their own intrinsic values and provide a range of goods and services, including the protection of tangible goods located on the shoreline affected… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/botlinnean/boaa020
Abstract: Reconstructing the early history of species divergence and quantifying the level of standing genetic variation in diverging populations are central to our understanding of ecotype formation and ultimately speciation. In this study, we used single… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/app11062821
Abstract: Since ecological phenomena and patterns vary with scale, scalar analysis is a developing practice in ecology. Scalar analysis is most valuable in heterogeneous environments, since habitat heterogeneity is a key factor in determining biodiversity. One… read more here.
