DOI: 10.1002/ece3.3651
Abstract: Abstract The continuous p‐median approach to environmental diversity (ED) is a reliable way to identify sites that efficiently represent species. A recently developed maximum dispersion (maxdisp) approach to ED is computationally simpler, does not require… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.8553
Abstract: Abstract The structural characteristics of the macroinvertebrate community can effectively reflect the health status of lake ecosystems and the quality of the lake ecological environment. It is therefore important to identify the limiting factors of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/etc.5577
Abstract: The decomposition of allochthonous organic matter, such as leaves, is a crucial ecosystem process in low-order streams. Microbial communities, including fungi and bacteria, colonise allochthonous organic material, break up large molecules and increase the nutritional… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s11356-019-06988-w
Abstract: The study empirically examines the effects of socio-economic (human capital), macroeconomic (per capita GDP), demographic (fertility rate, urbanization), and environmental variables (carbon emissions) on child mortality in South Asia. For empirical analysis, panel cointegration technique… read more here.
