1) The branches of the phylogenetic tree are rescaled (often resulting in shortening internal branches relative to terminal branches, as in the second tree), so that the B-vitamin profiles of the nutritionally known species match the distribution expected under a Brownian-motion model. The paramete...
work uncovers a series of themes that we believe are important to scholarship on diversity, as well as a series of suggestions for managers, policy makers, and industry professionals. In our summarizing of the literature, we also compile important descriptive information, both with respect to publi...

c, d. The increase in diversity, measured as Shannon Entropy and Inverse Simpson Index, with the number of carbon sources can still be approximated by a line. These indices give progressively more weight to abundant species, accounting, in this way, for the evenness of the communities. In ...
Forced migration has become a global megatrend, and many refugees are school aged. As social integration is key to their wellbeing and success, it is pivotal to determine factors that promote the social integration of refugee youth within schools. Here,
