DOI: 10.1080/00273171.2022.2119360
Abstract: Nonlinear mixed-effects models (NLMEMs) allow researchers to model curvilinear patterns of growth, but there is ambiguity as to what functional form the data follow. Often, researchers fit multiple nonlinear functions to data and use model… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/ele.14014
Abstract: Abstract Janzen–Connell effects (JCEs), specialised predation of seeds and seedlings near conspecific trees, are hypothesised to maintain species richness. While previous studies show JCEs can maintain high richness relative to neutral communities, recent theoretical work… read more here.

DOI: 10.1785/0120160205
Abstract: We present new ground‐motion prediction equations (GMPEs) to estimate horizontal and vertical strong ground motion intensity measures (GMIMs) generated by shallow active crustal earthquakes occurring within the Iranian plateau. To this end, a dataset containing… read more here.
