DOI: 10.1016/j.ecolind.2020.106191
Abstract: Abstract Multi-metric indices (MMIs) are the most common tool used to assess ecological integrity. Traditionally, only the metrics with the highest correlation to disturbance are incorporated. The rationale being that combining the metrics with the… read more here.
