Journal Article
Liu, B., & Coulthard, T. J. (2015). Mapping the interactions between rivers and sand dunes: Implications for fluvial and aeolian geomorphology. Geomorphology, 231(February), 246-257. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.geomorph.2014.12.011

The interaction between fluvial and aeolian processes can significantly change Earth surface morphology. When rivers and sand dunes meet, the interaction of sediment transport between the two systems can lead to change in either or both systems. Howe...

1. Moths (Lepidoptera) are the major nocturnal pollinators of flowers. However, their importance and contribution to the provision of pollination ecosystem services may have been under-appreciated. Evidence was identified that moths are important pol... Read More about Pollination by nocturnal Lepidoptera, and the effects of light pollution: A review.
