Replying to @selcukorkmaz
The key findings are: 1. Standard deviation is a measure of variability in a sample, while standard error is a measure of the precision of the sample mean. 2. Standard deviation does not change as the sample size increases, but standard error decreases as the sample size gets larger. 3. Standard error is useful for calculating confidence intervals and p-values. 4. Many publications do not clearly distinguish between standard deviation and standard error when reporting results. full paper: openread.academy/en/paper/re…

All rejected papers share one common flaw: a weak discussion section. I know because I used to write them too. If you're stuck on the discussion section, wondering how to tie it all together, this is for you:

#Herbarium specimens are incredibly valuable classroom tools for #plant #taxonomy #training. When collecting, remember to share duplicates with local herbaria, including Universities. They're helpful for training local botanists in the identification of their country's #Flora.
