Published in 2020 at "Earth and Space Science"

DOI: 10.1029/2019ea000784

Abstract: Scale height is an important ionospheric parameter which determines the shape of the topside electron density profile. In this paper, the latitudinal variation of α‐Chapman scale height (Hm) is investigated using data obtained from four… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Annals of botany"

DOI: 10.1093/aob/mcz207

Abstract: BACKGROUND AND AIMS Classic theory on geographical gradients in plant-herbivore interactions assumes that herbivore pressure and plant defences increase towards warmer and more stable climates found at lower latitudes. However, the generality of this trend… read more here.

Published in 2024 at "Biological Journal of the Linnean Society"

DOI: 10.1093/biolinnean/blae097

Abstract: Relative growth and life history traits along latitudinal gradients have been widely examined in bony fishes, but chondrichthyans have received less attention. The present work focuses on testing whether southern distributed individuals of Mustelus schmitti… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Global Ecology and Biogeography"

DOI: 10.1111/geb.12550

Abstract: Aim The relationship between herbivory and latitude may differ between native and invasive plant taxa, which can generate biogeographical heterogeneity in the strength of enemy release. Our aim was to compare latitudinal gradients in herbivory… read more here.
