Root foraging strategies and niche segregation of three mediterranean shrub species
Shrubs are usually adapted to stressful environments in which soil resources are limited, and thus, roots are fundamental for their biological success. However, root measures are challenging to collect, especially in field conditions and at the individual level.

International Biological Flora: Trapa natans†
The water caltrop (Trapa natans L.) was once widely distributed in its native range, but is in some part (i.e. Europe) nowadays very rare, highly threatened and of conservation concern for still unknown reasons. It has been introduced beyond its native range (e.g.

Nutrient Stocks in Four Stages of a Lowland Rain Forest at Pasirmayang, Jambi, Central Sumatra, [PDF]
Studies of nutrient cycling of tropical forests should differentiate between dynamic stages of the forest. We studied the nutrient concentration (N, P, K, Ca and Mg) and phytomass of aboveground (living and non living parts) and belowground compartments (

The strong edge effects we found in conventional cultivation support the premise that reducing field sizes could play a role in promoting in‐crop biodiversity. However, incorporating extensive field margins as an AEM would be more efficient at maximising the diversity of generalists whilst maintaining high yields.

Role of Surface Energy Fluxes in Urban Overheating Under Buoyancy‐Driven Atmospheric Conditions
Abstract Urbanization alters land surface properties in absorbing, reflecting and emitting radiation as well as infiltrating, evaporating and storing water. This consequently modifies surface energy and water fluxes and, thus, urban climates. Weak synoptic flow, clear sky conditions and higher surface temperatures in cities compared to their rural ...

Characterization of vegetation by microwave and optical remote sensing [PDF]
Two series of carefully controlled experiments were conducted. First, plots of important crops (corn, soybeans, and sorghum), prairie grasses (big bluestem, switchgrass, tal fescue, orchardgrass, bromegrass), and forage legumes (alfalfa, red clover, and ...

Effects of Ponderosa Pine Ecological Restoration on Forest Soils and Understory Vegetation in Northern Arizona [PDF]
The human exclusion of wildfire and overgrazing by livestock since settlement have caused dramatic changes in ponderosa pine (Pinus ponderosa Dougl ex Laws) forest ecosystems.

Stream Nitrogen Concentrations Across Arctic Vegetation Gradients
Abstract The Arctic is experiencing dramatic climate‐induced changes, which could have substantial consequences for nutrient export from land to streams and, thus, in‐stream nutrient availability and composition. Arctic freshwater ecosystems are low‐productive systems often limited by nitrogen (N) availability.
