Evaluating the robustness of generalized additive models as a tool for threshold detection in variable environments
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2025 at "Ecosphere"
DOI: 10.1002/ecs2.70117
Abstract: As global climate change and anthropogenic activities amplify widespread environmental variability, there is a strong need for management strategies that incorporate relationships between ecosystem components. This need is especially apparent when changes in environmental drivers… read more here.
