Presence of micro-mesoplastics in beaches and sediments of São Francisco do Sul (Brazil)NARA Subscribed
The coastal environment is a critical interface for monitoring plastic pollution. This study investigated microplastics (MPs, < 5 mm) and mesoplastics (MePs, 5–25 mm) in Praia Grande, São Francisco do Sul (SC State, Brazil), using stereomicroscopy and ATR-FTIR spectroscopy. Two sites with contrasting urbanization and tourism levels were assessed. Area #1, the more urbanized site, exhibited higher concentrations of MPs (70.44 p...
Motivation Here, we make available a second version of the BioTIME database, which compiles records of abundance estimates for species in sample events of ecological assemblages through time. The updated version expands version 1.0 of the database by doubling the number of studies and includes substantial additional curation to the taxonomic accuracy of the records, as well as the metadata. Moreover, we now provide an R packag...
Aim To test the importance of evolutionary and biogeographical processes in shaping the assembly of local frog communities in two adjacent regions (hereafter, coastal and inland regions) with different historical signatures. We asked two main questions: (1) why does the coastal region harbour more frog species than the inland region? and (2) how do these processes affect the spatial variation in taxonomic, phylogenetic and fun...
Motivation The BioTIME database contains raw data on species identities and abundances in ecological assemblages through time. These data enable users to calculate temporal trends in biodiversity within and amongst assemblages using a broad range of metrics. BioTIME is being developed as a community‐led open‐source database of biodiversity time series. Our goal is to accelerate and facilitate quantitative analysis of temporal...
