Fish Species Richness in Polish Lakes
Diversity, 2023 Global warming, eutrophication, fisheries overexploitation, species invasions, and habitat loss are the major threats to freshwater biodiversity. The aim of this study was to determine the species richness and diversity of fish in 535 Polish lakes of ...

Global patterns and drivers of alpine plant species richness
Global Ecology and Biogeography, 2021 Aim: Alpine ecosystems differ in area, macroenvironment and biogeographical history across the Earth, but the relationship between these factors and plant species richness is still unexplored. Here, we assess the global patterns of plant species richness

Global Patterns of Earwig Species Richness
Diversity, 2022 One of the most investigated patterns in species diversity is the so-called latitudinal gradient, that is, a decrease in species richness from the equator to the poles.

Main predictors of periphyton species richness depend on adherence strategy and cell size. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 Periphytic algae are important components of aquatic ecosystems. However, the factors driving periphyton species richness variation remain largely unexplored.

Synchrony matters more than species richness in plant community stability at a global scale
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2020 Significance The stability of ecological communities under ongoing climate and land-use change is fundamental to the sustainable management of natural resources through its effect on critical ecosystem services.

Predicting microbial species richness [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2005 Microorganisms are spectacularly diverse phylogenetically, but available estimates of their species richness are vague and problematic. For example, for comparable environments, the estimated numbers of species range from a few dozen or hundreds to tens of thousands and even half a million.

Urbanization and Human Population Favor Species Richness of Alien Birds
Diversity, 2020 Human activities like urbanization and agriculture affect spatial biodiversity patterns. The presence and activities of humans richly benefit alien species, but native species usually decline in human-impacted areas.
