DOI: 10.1002/ece3.9339
Abstract: Abstract Time‐series data offer wide‐ranging opportunities to test hypotheses about the physical and biological factors that influence species abundances. Although sophisticated models have been developed and applied to analyze abundance time series, they require information… read more here.

DOI: 10.1037/dev0000763
Abstract: Researchers are often inclined to test agreement or discrepancy hypotheses using difference scores. This commentary explains 2 mathematical-statistical principles underlying associations with difference scores and 2 conceptual-interpretation problems that make difference scores inappropriate for testing… read more here.

DOI: 10.1073/pnas.2208447119
Abstract: Significance Plants and insects are locked in a coevolutionary battle, where plants develop novel chemical defenses and insects adapt to overcome them. After mustards evolved defensive compounds, butterflies evolved the ability to detoxify said compounds… read more here.
