The source of scientific ecological information is an article from Science Advances found here: https://advances.sciencemag.org/content/6/47/eabb7232
I would classify this source as being peer reviewed academic research material. My reasons for doing so include the fact that this is a study that includes both methods and results sections that evaluates data from the field of tropical rainforests, it is published in a Science journal who have peer review as one of their prerequisites for publishing journals, as found in their editorial policies found here: https://www.sciencemag.org/authors/science-journals-editorial-policies, and this paper was written by authors are are all from Earth and/or Environmental science departments of their respective higher education communities, classifying them as experts in their fields, they have in text citations and a bibliography of 64 sources relevant to their topic.
