The effects of anthropogenic disturbance and seasonality on the ant communities of Lang Tengah Island [PDF]
Anthropogenic disturbances and seasonal changes significantly impact diversity and community composition of ants, but their effects are often intertwined.

The destruction of forest habitats generates extremely fragmented areas and changes in vegetation structure. That changes the characteristics of microhabitats and the availability of resources and affects the diversity of animal species such as ants ...

The decomposition of beta-diversity (β-diversity) into its replacement (βrepl) and richness (βrich) components in combination with a taxonomic and functional approach, may help to identify processes driving community composition along environmental ...

The ant fauna (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) of the Mordovia State Nature Reserve, Russia
Ants form an important insect group in many terrestrial ecosystems. The research of ant species diversity is a relevant line of ecological and faunistic studies to completely reveal the biodiversity. Particular attention is given to Protected Areas where

Ant Species Diversity in the Central and Northern Parts of the Western Sichuan Plateau in China
Understanding how species richness changes along elevational gradients has attracted increasing attention from many researchers. The relationships between species richness and elevations were characterized by monotonic decreases or mid-elevational peaks.

Double Ant Colony Algorithm Based on Collaborative Mechanism and Dynamic Regulation Strategy
Aiming at the problem that the ant colony algorithm has slow convergence rate and poor diversity in solving traveling salesman problem (TSP), double ant colony algorithm based on collaborative mechanism and dynamic regulation strategy is proposed ...

Partitioning the impact of environment and spatial structure on alpha and beta components of taxonomic, functional, and phylogenetic diversity in European ants [PDF]
We analyze the relative contribution of environmental and spatial variables to the alpha and beta components of taxonomic (TD), phylogenetic (PD), and functional (FD) diversity in ant communities found along different climate and anthropogenic ...
