(1/5) A new #tool for evaluating the ecological condition of native forests in the #Azores archipelago!
Let's take a look at the recent #Arthropod-based biotic Integrity Indices (IBI) by @ntsaf1 and colleagues.
(4/5) They developed two IBI from canopy and SLAM, both based on seven parameters as abundance and richness of #endemic and #exotic species related to disturbance, and of #invasive species as ๐๐๐๐๐ก๐๐๐ข๐๐ข๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ก๐ in canopy, characteristic of disturbed habitat.
