Choosing and using diversity indices: insights for ecological applications from the German Biodiversity Exploratories

E. Kathryn Morris, Tancredi Caruso, François Buscot et al. · 28 Aug 2014

Biodiversity, a multidimensional property of natural systems, is difficult to quantify partly because of the multitude of indices proposed for this purpose. Indices aim to describe general properties of communities that allow us to compare different regions, taxa, and trophic levels. Therefore, they are of fundamental importance for environmental monitoring and conservation, although there is…

On the selection of thresholds for predicting species occurrence with presence‐only data

Canran Liu, Graeme Newell, Matt White · 29 Dec 2015

Presence-only data present challenges for selecting thresholds to transform species distribution modeling results into binary outputs. In this article, we compare two recently published threshold selection methods (maxSSS and maxF pb) and examine the effectiveness of the threshold-based prevalence estimation approach. Six virtual species with varying prevalence were simulated within a real landscape in southeastern…

Reconceptualizing synergism and antagonism among multiple stressors

Jeremy J. Piggott, Colin R. Townsend, Christoph D. Matthaei · 11 Mar 2015

The potential for complex synergistic or antagonistic interactions between multiple stressors presents one of the largest uncertainties when predicting ecological change but, despite common use of the terms in the scientific literature, a consensus on their operational definition is still lacking. The identification of synergism or antagonism is generally straightforward when stressors operate in the…

Functional traits, the phylogeny of function, and ecosystem service vulnerability

Sandra Dı́az, Andy Purvis, Johannes H. C. Cornelissen et al. · 30 Jul 2013

People depend on benefits provided by ecological systems. Understanding how these ecosystem services - and the ecosystem properties underpinning them - respond to drivers of change is therefore an urgent priority. We address this challenge through developing a novel risk-assessment framework that integrates ecological and evolutionary perspectives on functional traits to determine species' effects on…

EasyCodeML: A visual tool for analysis of selection using CodeML

Fangluan Gao, Chengjie Chen, Daej A. Arab et al. · 1 Mar 2019

The genomic signatures of positive selection and evolutionary constraints can be detected by analyses of nucleotide sequences. One of the most widely used programs for this purpose is CodeML, part of the PAML package. Although a number of bioinformatics tools have been developed to facilitate the use of CodeML, these have various limitations. Here, we…

Ecology and Evolution template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the Ecology and Evolution format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the Ecology and Evolution template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official Wiley format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does Ecology and Evolution use?
Ecology and Evolution uses Author–year (Chicago) references, shown as author–year markers such as (Smith, 2023) in the text. DocuGuru formats every in-text citation and the reference list in this exact style automatically. A reference appears like this: Smith, Ada, Ben Jones, and Cara Lee. 2023. "A Representative Article Title." Ecology and Evolution 12 (3): 45–58.
Do I need to know LaTeX to submit to Ecology and Evolution?
No. DocuGuru generates the USG LaTeX class and compiles the PDF for you in the background, so you get a Wiley-ready Ecology and Evolution document without writing any LaTeX. If you do want it, the LaTeX source is included in the export.
Can I import an existing draft into the Ecology and Evolution template?
Yes. Paste or upload your current manuscript — Word, LaTeX, Markdown, or plain text — and DocuGuru reflows it into the Ecology and Evolution format with correct headings, figures, tables, and author–year citations.
Who publishes Ecology and Evolution?
Ecology and Evolution is a multidisciplinary journal published by Wiley. DocuGuru's Ecology and Evolution template matches Wiley's official submission format.
Can I export a submission-ready Ecology and Evolution PDF?
Yes — DocuGuru produces a PDF built with the official Ecology and Evolution template (the USG class) that is ready to submit to Wiley, together with the matching LaTeX source files.
How much does the Ecology and Evolution template cost?
You can start writing in the Ecology and Evolution template for free. Exporting the final submission-ready Ecology and Evolution PDF and LaTeX source is part of DocuGuru's paid plans — see the app for current pricing.
