Abstract
It is crucial to document biodiversity data and to take actions to halt the ongoing massive loss of biodiversity. Yet, these data are poorly defined. We propose a definition of biodiversity data and discuss its implications for data management, enabling enhanced data mobilization for integrated research and efficient conservation strategies.
期刊介绍:
Trends in Ecology & Evolution (TREE) is a comprehensive journal featuring polished, concise, and readable reviews, opinions, and letters in all areas of ecology and evolutionary science. Catering to researchers, lecturers, teachers, field workers, and students, it serves as a valuable source of information. The journal keeps scientists informed about new developments and ideas across the spectrum of ecology and evolutionary biology, spanning from pure to applied and molecular to global perspectives. In the face of global environmental change, Trends in Ecology & Evolution plays a crucial role in covering all significant issues concerning organisms and their environments, making it a major forum for life scientists.
