Impact of past and present management practices on the land snail community of nutrient-poor calcareous grasslands [PDF]
Nutrient-poor, dry calcareous grasslands in Central Europe harbour an extraordinary high diversity of plants and invertebrates. Consequently, they are of high conservation value.

Contrasting microbial biogeographical patterns between anthropogenic subalpine grasslands and natural alpine grasslands [PDF]
Summary The effect of plant species composition on soil microbial communities was studied at the multiregional level. We compared the soil microbial communities of alpine natural grasslands dominated by Carex curvula and anthropogenic subalpine pastures dominated by Nardus stricta. We conducted paired sampling across the Carpathians and the Alps and

When Nature Counts: Corporate Biodiversity Attention and Access to Bank Finance
ABSTRACT This paper investigates whether corporate attention to biodiversity influences firms' access to bank loans, an overlooked question in the emerging biodiversity–finance literature. Using a novel, text‐based measure constructed from 446 biodiversity‐related keywords and applied to Chinese A‐share listed firms from 2000 to 2023, we show that ...

Plant adaptive strategies respond to environmental change across European grassland habitats
Grassland ecosystems are facing rapid and ongoing change driven by intensified land‐use and accelerated climate change, highlighting the urgent need to understand their potential adaptation and response to environmental change. We analyzed data from 52 980 vegetation plots spanning all major grassland habitats in Europe (including alpine, rocky, sandy,
