DOI: 10.1002/etc.4880
Abstract: Abstract The absence of chronic toxicity data for tropical marine waters has limited our ability to derive appropriate water quality guideline values for metals in tropical regions. To aid environmental management, temperate data are usually… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.geoderma.2018.04.030
Abstract: Abstract Serpentine soils contain high levels of geogenic Cr and Ni, which may pose potential risks to the environment due to the increase of bioavailability of the metals during soil weathering. This study determined the… read more here.

DOI: 10.4081/jlimnol.2021.1997
Abstract: Small water bodies are typically characterized by high diversity of various groups of microorganisms. Moreover, these ecosystems react very quickly to even the slightest climate changes (e.g. a temperature increase or water level fluctuations). Thus… read more here.

Do patterns of insect mortality in temperate and tropical zones have broader implications for insect ecology and pest management?
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "PeerJ"
DOI: 10.7717/peerj.13340
Abstract: Background Understanding how biotic and abiotic factors affect insect mortality is crucial for both fundamental knowledge of population ecology and for successful pest management. However, because these factors are difficult to quantify and interpret, patterns… read more here.
