Alpine plant community diversity in species–area relations at fine scale
Arctic, Antarctic, and Alpine Research, 2020 Observations of diversity in alpine vegetation appear to be scale dependent. The relations of plant species richness with surface processes and geomorphology have been studied, but patterns of beta diversity are less known.

Integrative Conservation, EarlyView.The impact of various restoration strategies on biodiversity and biomass in degraded savannas was evaluated across different elevation gradients. Natural regeneration co‐benefits the increasing in biodiversity and biomass in savannas, while active restoration exhibits altitude‐dependent efficacy and lower biomass accumulation capacity.

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Soil organic matter (SOM) accumulation in forest soils is strongly influenced by interactions with inorganic constituents derived from parent material mineralogy. However, their role in the forest floor remains underexplored.

Alpine Botany, 2011 From 1891 on, the Swiss Botanical Society (SBG/SBS) was editing the Bulletin of the Swiss Botanical Society, named Botanica Helvetica since 1981. Publishing a scientific journal was always one of the most prominent activities of the society. From the beginning, botanical studies on mountains and from alpine areas had a prominent place in the journal ...

Alternative foraging strategies enable a mountain ungulate to persist after migration loss
Ecosphere, 2017 The persistence of many migratory ungulate populations worldwide is threatened due to anthropogenic impacts to seasonal ranges and migration routes. While many studies have linked migratory ungulate declines to migration disruption or loss, very few have

In search of the authentic nation: landscape and national identity in Canada and Switzerland [PDF]
, 1998 While the study of nationalism and national identity has flourished in the last decade, little attention has been devoted to the conditions under which natural environments acquire significance in definitions of nationhood.
