Why do we value species? What is so bad about invasive species? Why value biodiversity?
Do all the arthropods molt ? Which ones do not molt ? Why don't they need to molt ? I tried googling this - but did not get satisfactory answers.
Is there a hypothesis that attempts to explain patterns of species richness along all three energy-related environmental gradients?
My question is related to one of the oldest question in ecology: "What determines global patterns of species richness?". However, I want to focus on one particular part of this question, which has ...
I know how estimates of species richness in a small area are made. But how do you estimate the total number of species on a global scale? One example of such a method can be found in Mora et al. ...
I have collected some data to compare the biodiversity of a field in which the plagioclimax is maintained by machine mowing with a field in which the plagioclimax is maintained by sheep grazing. What ...
I am conducting an investigation into the effect of two different grass management techniques (grazing vs. machine-mowing) upon floral biodiversity. I have collected my data and now need to process ...
