DOI: 10.1002/ecs2.1967
Abstract: Windborne migration of insects is significantly influenced by meteorological factors and phenomena, such as seasonal atmospheric circulation. Large-scale movement of air provides the background for all weather and climate events. Hence, population abundances of migratory… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.marpetgeo.2020.104588
Abstract: Abstract Sediment-rich tide-dominated estuary is generally considered nonexistent or ephemeral under the stable sea-level condition, given the rapid transition to a deltaic system after massive sediments dumping at the river mouth. The well-preserved transgressive sequence… read more here.
