Sources of Scientific Informations

The article I chose to analyze is called Climate change-driven range losses among bumblebee species are poised to accelerate.

a) The article was found on Nature https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-018-32665-y#Abs1

b) I believe this is academic peer-reviewed research material.

c) I concluded that it is academic because the authors of the paper are two experts in the field affiliated with the University of Ottawa, there are in-text citations found throughout, and the paper contains a references section. I discovered that it is peer-reviewed because anonymous reviewers are thanked in the acknowledgment section. It seems to be research material because there is a methods section in which the authors explain how they collected data, the models used, and the study sites visited.
