Wu, Hogeun Park and Changliang ShaoAbstractAims:This review was developed to introduce the essential components and variants of structural equationmodeling (SEM), synthesize the common issues in SEM Applications , and share our views on SEM s future inecological :We searched the Web of Science on SEM Applications in ecological studies from 1999 through 2016 andsummarized the potential of SEMs, with a special focus on unexplored uses in ecology. We also analyzed anddiscussed the common issues with SEM Applications in previous publications and presented our view for its :We searched and found 146 relevant publications on SEM Applications in ecological studies.
