Increasing evidence indicates that spatial and temporal patterns in ecological systems are
not independent of the scale of measurement. In this study we used a hierarchical sampling …

Despite its negative impacts on the environment and biodiversity, tree plantations can
contribute to biodiversity conservation in fragmented landscapes, as they harbor many …

We investigated the patterns of taxonomic (TD) and functional (FD) α and β‐diversities of
ants in a mountainous landscape along three dimensions, namely one temporal (seasonal) …

The current demand for studies on ants in general and their communities in particular has
exponentially increased during the last decades. Much has already been said about ant …

The present study provides data to decide on the most appropriate method for sampling of
ground-dwelling arthropods measured in a moist-deciduous forest in the Western Ghats in …

The assumption that the description of any system depends on spatial and temporal scale
has moved researchers to incorporate scale as another factor in determining the …

" Assemblage" is a fundamental archaeological construct. By their composition, we interpret
assemblages as expressions of activity or cultural identity. Yet they are not simple products …

This study evaluates the response of the ant communities along a habitat regeneration
gradient in the south Atlantic Forest comparing it with the ant fauna from a mature forest at …

We compared the ant assemblages from four very heterogeneous habitats over a short-
distance elevational gradient of vegetation (due to the presence of an inselberg) at the …

Quantitative Ecotoxicology, Second Edition explores models and methods of quantitative
ecotoxicology at progressively higher biological scales using worked examples and …
