Invasive non-native species are amongst the most serious threats to biodiversity at local and global scales. Due to their geographical remoteness, extreme conditions and lower levels of human activity, the Earth's polar regions have seen fe...
Local expertise anchors biodiversity documentation, but geopolitical power drives parachute discovery [0.03%]
本土专业知识奠定了生物多样性记录的基础,但地缘政治权力主导了远程科研活动
Mario R Moura,Raquel L Carvalho,Karoline Ceron et al.
Mario R Moura et al.
Global biodiversity documentation is limited by a persistent biodiversity knowledge split, in which high biodiverse nations have their specimens extracted and housed elsewhere. Holotypes, the name-bearing specimens required for the descript...
Microbial diversity as the next frontier of payments for ecosystem services in nature-positive finance [0.03%]
