Species richness and abundance were both typically less at the two locations at the lowest latitude than at the two at the highest latitudes. This trend, which contrasts with the paradigm regarding latitudinal trends for these biotic variables, is attributable to the far more extreme hydrological ...
In total, 474 pairwise comparisons that compared organic and conventional farming systems were considered. Overall, organic farming showed higher species richness or abundance in 58% of the pairs. No differences were found for 38%, 4% indicated negative effects from organic farming. The average (...
Species diversity isa measurement of biological diversity to be found in a specific ecological community. It represents the species richness or number of species found in an ecological community, the abundance (or number of individuals per species), and the distribution or evenness of species. What ...
Those indices were developed to account for biodiversity richness, abundance and several other measures that are known to be important when studying natural phenomena (Pavoine and Bonsall, 2011). Similarly, in the recent years these indices were adapted to sound data giving rise to what is called...
What term refers to the kind of place, defined by the plant community and the physical environment, where a species is biologically adapted to live? What is the difference between a broad and a narrow ecological niche? What is the term for all the individuals of ...
to the organisms living in it and those organisms to each other. Ecology can include the study of how various elements/nutrients move throughout the ecosystem, the study of various adaptations to the environment, or the study of the abundance of a species and species richness in an environment...

It was recognised that the UK planning system was not doing enough to reduce declines in the abundance and diversity of habits and species. The UK is one of the most nature-depleted countries in the world, so BNG is part of the solution to reversing the trends in the decline of ...

Ecology (from Greek: οἶκος, "house" or "living relations"; -λογία, "study of") is the scientific study of the distributions, abundance and relations of organisms and their interactions with the environment.[1] Ecology includes the study of plant and animal populations, plant...
