Should phylogenetic and functional diversity metrics compose macroinvertebrate multimetric indices for stream biomonitoring?
(Springer, 2015-02-01)
The idea behind multimetric indices is to integrate information from several metrics to provide a general classification of water bodies without losing the particularities of each individual metric. Historically, multimetric ...
Ecological uniqueness of fish communities from streams in modified landscapes of Eastern Amazonia
(2020-04-01)
Ecological uniqueness is one aspect of beta (β) diversity that shows the relative contribution of sites (local contribution to beta diversity – LCBD) and taxa (species contribution to beta diversity – SCBD) in the formation ...
