  A link between ecological diversity indices and measures of biodiversity.

  Izsák, J., Papp, L. (2000)

  This article discusses the connection between traditional ecological diversity indices and measures of biodiversity. It introduces the quadratic entropy index, which considers both species differences and their abundances, bridging traditional concepts of ecological diversity and modern biodiversity measures.

• 2

  A biodiversity intactness index.

  Scholes, R. J., Biggs, R. (2005)

  The authors propose a Biodiversity Intactness Index (BII) to assess the state of biodiversity on a large geographic scale. The BII measures the average abundance of a set of organisms in a geographic area, providing a tool to monitor biodiversity loss at regional and global levels.

  Quantifying biodiversity: procedures and pitfalls in the measurement and comparison of species richness.

  Gotelli, N. J., Colwell, R. K. (2001)

  This article examines methodologies for quantifying biodiversity, focusing on procedures and pitfalls in the measurement and comparison of species richness. The authors discuss various biodiversity indices and provide guidelines for their application.

  CityNet: Deep learning tools for urban ecoacoustic assessment.

  Fairbrass, A. J., Rennett, J., Williams, C., Titheridge, H. (2018)

  The authors present CityNet, a set of deep learning tools for urban ecoacoustic assessment. The system uses acoustic recordings to monitor biodiversity in urban areas, demonstrating the effectiveness of artificial intelligence in biodiversity conservation.

  Diversity of avian species, their ecosystems and climate conditions in two zones of High Atlas (central Morocco) for ecotouristic purposes.

  Wakassa, S., Mounir, M., Squallic, W., Mansouri, I., Dbibae, Y., Hmidani, M., Chellik, S., Douini, I., El Youssi, M., El Azzouzi, M. (2023)

  This study analyzes avifaunal diversity and natural ecosystems in the Central High Atlas of Morocco, highlighting the ecotouristic potential. The results show a rich bird biodiversity, suggesting that these areas could be used for sustainable ecotourism activities.

  Ecoacoustic indices as proxies for biodiversity on temperate reefs.

  Harris, S. A., Shears, N. T., Radford, C. A. (2015)

  The authors explore the use of ecoacoustic indices as proxies for biodiversity on temperate reefs. The study demonstrates that recorded sounds can provide valuable information on species diversity and ecosystem health in marine environments.

  Biodiversity change is uncoupled from species richness trends: consequences for conservation strategies.

  Hillebrand, H., Blasius, B., Borer, E. T., Chase, J. M., Downing, J. A. (2017)

  This article analyzes how changes in biodiversity are not necessarily linked to species richness trends. The authors discuss the implications of this decoupling for conservation strategies, suggesting the need for more comprehensive biodiversity measures.

  Good practice guidelines for long-term ecological monitoring.

  Marcos, M. (2021)

  This document provides guidelines on best practices for long-term ecological monitoring. It includes methodologies and approaches to ensure the collection of reliable data and the ongoing assessment of ecosystem health.

  Acoustic indices as proxies for biodiversity: a meta-analysis.

  Alcocer, J., Escobar-Briones, E. (2022)

  The authors conduct a meta-analysis on the use of acoustic indices as proxies for biodiversity. The results show that acoustic indices can be effective tools for monitoring and assessing biodiversity in various environments.

  The Mediterranean Basin hotspot: a case study of biodiversity and conservation.

  Michele, D., Teixeira, J., Squalli, W. (2019)

  This study examines the Mediterranean Basin as a biodiversity hotspot, analyzing the challenges and opportunities for conservation. The authors discuss strategies to protect this ecologically rich and threatened region.
