DOI: 10.1007/s10841-024-00580-5

Abstract: Insects and arachnids are abundant and diverse, respond to key human impacts and support a diversity of key ecological functions. They are therefore widely recognised as effective surrogates for ecosystem condition. Their efficacy as indicators… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.biocon.2018.01.023

Abstract: Abstract Environmental managers often use indicator taxa to monitor full biodiversity and hidden environmental factors. For identifying practical indicators from assemblage data collected in the field, it is crucial to remove irrelevant variation, which unfortunately… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-025-10243-3

Abstract: Several aspects of the relationships between VME indicator taxa and associated fauna have been previously explored mainly on rocky habitat respect the soft bottom. However, the soft bottom hosts many VMEs indicator taxa for which… read more here.
