Freshwater brown algae are undoubtedly the least diverse of all groups of freshwater algae. Although some species can at times form substantial populations, no habitats are known that have several species of freshwater brown algae within a single location.Kann (1993)has observed filamentousPleurocladia...
Leave-one-out cross-validation (LOOCV) was performed for each method to compare their predictive accuracies. This technique drops an individual point from the dataset and then uses the remaining data to interpolate a value for the location of the dropped data; this is repeated for all available...
South America is home to the highest freshwater fish biodiversity on Earth, and the hotspot of species richness is located in the western Amazon basin. The location of this hotspot is enigmatic, as it is inconsistent with the pattern observed in river sy
A remarkable range of environmental conditions is present in the Hawaiian Islands due to their gradients of elevation, rainfall and island age. Despite being well known as a location for the study of evolutionary processes and island biogeography, little is known about the composition of the non-...
