DOI: 10.1007/s00248-025-02581-6
Abstract: Glyphosate-based herbicides are among the most widely used agricultural chemicals globally, and their widespread application presents risks to environmental health and aquatic ecosystems. Continuous glyphosate inputs disrupt phytoplankton communities, potentially triggering harmful algal blooms. This… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10750-017-3245-9
Abstract: Recent studies have found that the relative importance of predictors of metacommunity structure is dependent on different factors. Low explanatory power of multivariate models is a frequent result. To increase this power, ecologists have suggested… read more here.
