Hidden dangers of a 'citation culture'
Peter A. Todd,Richard J. Ladle +1 more
TL;DR: The influence of the journal impact factor and the effect of a 'citation culture' on science and scientists have been discussed extensively, but there are 2 substantial areas of error that can dis- tort a citation count or any metric based on a citationcount.
Journal ArticleDOI
Increased climate risk in Brazilian double cropping agriculture systems: Implications for land use in Northern Brazil
Gabrielle Ferreira Pires,Gabriel M. Abrahão,Livia Maria Brumatti,Leydimere J.C. Oliveira,Marcos Heil Costa,Spencer Liddicoat,Etsushi Kato,Richard J. Ladle,Richard J. Ladle +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors assess soybean productivity change in South America after climate change, considering important factors such as the decision whether or not to adopt double cropping systems and the incidence of diseases, both of which can influence planting dates.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tropical Artisanal Coastal Fisheries: Challenges and Future Directions
TL;DR: Artisanal fisheries occur all over the tropics and provide an important source of protein and income for many coastal communities However, varied types and magnitudes of anthropogenic impacts threaten the environmental, economic, and socio-cultural sustainability of this poorly studied fishing practice as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phenotype-environment matching in the shore crab ( Carcinus maenas )
TL;DR: Evidence is presented to suggest that individual crabs lose their pigment, rather than larger patterned crabs being preferentially removed from the population by predators, as part of an ontogenetic shift in habitat use.
Journal ArticleDOI
Creating complex habitats for restoration and reconciliation
TL;DR: It is argued that the ability to determine or modify the variables of complexity precisely has the potential to open up new lines of research in diversity theory and contribute to restoration and reconciliation by enabling environmental managers to rebuild complexity in anthropogenically-simplified habitats.
